How to Apply Tretinoin Cream 0.025%
Start with a patch test before first use. Cleanse your skin gently and allow it to dry fully. Wait about 15 to 20 minutes before applying a small pea sized amount, then spread a thin layer evenly over the skin.
Use only at night and avoid sensitive areas such as the eyes, lips, and corners of the nose. Wash your hands after applying. Begin with 2 to 3 nights per week and increase gradually as your skin adjusts. Follow with a moisturiser to reduce dryness, and apply sunscreen every morning since tretinoin increases sensitivity to sunlight. Limit direct sun exposure during use.
