Retinol Skin Care

Retinol is an increasingly popular ingredient in the skin care industry, used to treat acne, keratosis pilaris and as an anti-aging ingredient. Retinol, a form of Vitamin A, increases cell turnover, as well as collagen production, giving the skin a softer, smoother texture. Because it is so universally used in the skin care industry, many consumers are unaware that Retinol is in their products. Retinol should only be used at night, unless otherwise instructed by your physician. Most importantly, always remember to wear a sunscreen of at least an SPF 15 while using any type of Retinol. Keeping these precautions in mind, introducing SkinMedica Retinol Complex along with SkinMedica Daily Sun Protection for Faces is a great addition to your skin care regimen.
