  2. Submit your consultation fee: Pay the one-off 40 € fee securely online. If the doctor determines that topical Tretinoin is not appropriate for your condition, the consultation fee is refunded in full.
  3. Clinical evaluation: An EU-licensed doctor reviews your answers and photographic evidence within 24 hours to determine clinical suitability.
  4. Receive your REMPE prescription: When approved, your REMPE private electronic prescription is issued as a downloadable PDF in your secure account and sent via email notification. You can print the PDF or present it on your smartphone at an EU pharmacy.

What Tretinoin actually does

Tretinoin (all-trans retinoic acid) is the most extensively researched topical retinoid for skin ageing. It works at the cellular level by binding directly to nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs) in epidermal and dermal cells.

Once bound, Tretinoin accelerates epidermal cell turnover, loosening the adhesion between surface corneocytes to promote natural exfoliation. In the deeper dermis, it inhibits matrix metalloproteinases (enzymes that degrade collagen) while actively stimulating type I procollagen synthesis. Because dermal remodelling depends on slow structural synthesis, visible anti-ageing changes take several months rather than days.

Phase Timeline Expected Biological Effect
Initiation Weeks 1–2 Initial cellular acclimatisation; application 2–3 nights weekly to gauge tolerance.
Retinisation Weeks 2–6 Accelerated turnover causing mild dryness, transient flaking, and light peeling.
Surface Refinement Week 12 Compaction of the stratum corneum leading to smoother skin texture and even tone.
Dermal Remodelling Months 6–12 Measurable increase in dermal collagen density and visible softening of fine lines.

Side effects and when to stop

During the early weeks of treatment, most patients experience an adjustment phase known as retinisation. Common, manageable reactions include mild erythema, skin dryness, local peeling, and a transient stinging sensation upon applying moisturiser.

To reduce irritation, apply a pea-sized amount to completely dry skin at night, start by using the cream two to three nights per week, and maintain a simple barrier-support moisturiser. Because Tretinoin increases epidermal photosensitivity, broad-spectrum daily SPF is mandatory throughout treatment.

You should discontinue application and contact your doctor if you experience severe contact dermatitis, persistent blistering, facial swelling, or extreme burning. Tretinoin must be stopped immediately if you suspect you are pregnant.
