Retinol (Vitamin A)
Retinol is another name for vitamin A, one of the most important vitamins for the appearance of your skin. Retinol belongs to the family of chemical compounds known as retinoids, and is particularly effective due to its small molecular structure. This allows for penetration deep beneath the skin and promotes cellular renewal. Retinol has been embraced by dermatologists and estheticians alike for its ability to smooth wrinkles and lines. It also increases
moisture and elasticity and assists the skin in repairing itself. Recent dermatologic advances have allowed for even more stable retinol formulations, along with solid studies regarding their efficacy.
Retinol is acknowledged as a powerful antioxidant that assists in creating stronger, healthier skin cells and increases the amount of skin-support substances. It is also used in the management of keratosis pilaris and acne, as the increased skin exfoliation of vitamin A helps unclog pores. Retinol products are an important
component in any quality skin care regimen and for those looking to maintain a youthful glow.

Retinol Complex
by SkinMedica
This exclusive formula combines active levels of three analogs of Pro-Retinoic acid (Retinyl Pa Imitate, Retinyl Acetate and Retinol) with Tocotrienol, a powerful antioxidant and protectant. These actives are bio-converted into Retinoic acid by natural enzymatic conversion. Furthermore, this complex is administered to the skin internal and external with a dual delivery system. Upon application, the Retinol Complex cream floods the skin with these very active forms of Vitamin A for immediate delivery and conversion to Retinoic acid.
Additionally, these actives are entrapped in polymeric spheres, which gently release the actives with a time-release delivery. This allows for varying rates of bioconversion, which gives dramatic efficacy with a minimum of irritation or sensitization potential. This technically advanced formula is designed for sensitive skin, containing a trio of extremely effective anti-irritants (Canadian Willowherb Extract, Alpha Bisabolol and Japanese Green Tea Extract).
