- In-person referrals: Patients presenting with severe nodular or cystic acne, scarring disease, or suspected malignant skin lesions are directed to in-person medical care. Hi-Doctor does not prescribe oral isotretinoin or oral antibiotics online.
- Strict contraindications: Tretinoin is teratogenic and strictly contraindicated during pregnancy, suspected pregnancy, or while actively trying to conceive.
What Tretinoin actually does
Tretinoin (all-trans retinoic acid) is the gold standard topical retinoid with decades of clinical evidence for photoageing. It binds directly to nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs), accelerating epidermal cell turnover and stimulating dermal fibroblasts to synthesise type I collagen. Because structural remodelling takes time, clinical improvements accumulate over several months.
| Treatment Phase | Typical Timeline | Expected Skin Changes |
|---|---|---|
| Retinisation | Weeks 2 to 6 | Mild redness, dryness, flaking, and skin purging as cell turnover increases. |
| Cellular Renewal | Weeks 6 to 12 | Improved skin smoothness, enhanced radiance, and gradual clearing of texture. |
| Dermal Remodelling | Months 6 to 12 | Reduction in fine lines, increased skin firmness, and evening of pigmentation. |
To reduce irritation, start by applying a pea-sized amount to completely dry skin at night, 2 to 3 times per week, gradually increasing frequency as tolerated. Daily broad-spectrum SPF 50 application is mandatory because retinoids increase photosensitivity.
Side effects and when to stop
Most patients experience an initial adjustment phase known as retinisation. Mild flaking and transient dryness are standard, but application frequency should be reduced if severe irritation develops.
- Common reactions: Localised dryness, erythema, mild stinging, and surface peeling during the first month.
- Management: Buffer application with a gentle moisturiser and suspend other harsh actives like exfoliating acids or scrubs.
- When to stop: Discontinue use immediately and consult a doctor if you experience intense burning, swelling, hives, or discover you are pregnant.
