This retinoid is derived from vitamin a which is known for its antioxidant and regenerative power. It can be use to:

help with sun damage
help with stretch marks

It should be used with caution due to the side effects:

redness
dryness

This is a good treatment for acne, but you have to be persistent until seeing results, even if it looks like is getting worst at first, you will have to wait 2 to 3 months to see some improvements.

The same can be say if your aim is to rejuvenate your skin; be constant and you will see an improvement in about 6 months to 1 year.

There are guidelines to apply this skin care ingredient, so read the labels carefully, and consult a dermatologist with any doubt, as your skin could have a negative reaction.
