How to Use Retin-A Gel?

Follow your doctor’s prescription exactly. 

• Dosing frequency: 
• Apply RETIN-A Gel once daily before bedtime, or as directed by your doctor.
• Your physician may advise, especially if your skin is sensitive, that you start your therapy by applying RETIN-A Gel every other night.
• How to take:
• Wash your face with a mild soap and gently dry your skin. 
• Wait 20 to 30 minutes to ensure your skin is completely dry before applying the medication in order to minimize possible irritation. 
• Squeeze about a half-inch of gel onto your fingertip. While that should be enough for your whole face, after you have some experience with the medication, you may find you need slightly more or less to do the job. 
• Cover the affected area lightly with RETIN-A (tretinoin)Gel. Dab it onto your forehead, chin, and both cheeks. Spread the gel over the affected area gently. 
• The medication should become invisible almost immediately. If dry flaking occurs or the gel remains visible within a minute or so, you are using too much. 
• Apply moisturizer or a moisturizer with sunscreen every morning after washing your face. 
• What to avoid:
• Avoid applying RETIN-A Gel to the corners of your nose, mouth, eyes, or open wounds. Spread away from these areas when applying 
• Do not use more than the prescribed amount or apply more frequently than instructed. Too much may irritate the skin, waste medication, and not give faster or better results
