Tretinoin 0.05% Cream
SKU GME513Product Introduction
Tretinoin 0.05% Cream is a topical retinoid used to treat acne, particularly blocked pores, blackheads and whiteheads. Regular treatment helps reduce new acne lesions and can improve skin texture over time.
How to use
At night, wash gently, pat dry and allow the skin to dry completely; conventional tretinoin cream instructions allow 20–30 minutes after washing. Spread a pea-sized amount thinly over the acne-affected area, avoiding eyes, lips and broken skin. Use moisturiser and daytime sunscreen to limit irritation.
How it works
Tretinoin changes follicular cell turnover, reduces microcomedone formation, and helps clear pores in acne-prone skin.
Side effects
Possible effects include dryness, peeling, redness, burning, stinging, itching, increased sun sensitivity, temporary acne flare, and irritation. Severe swelling, blistering, crusting, or allergic reaction needs review.
Important information
Tell your dermatologist about pregnancy plans, breastfeeding, eczema, rosacea, sunburn, sensitive skin and recent waxing, laser treatment or chemical peels. Mention benzoyl peroxide, exfoliants, alcohol-based skin products and photosensitising medicines. Agree on how to separate irritating products and use sunscreen during treatment.
Uses
- Acne vulgaris and selected dermatologist-directed skin-renewal uses.
Benefits
Helps prevent blocked pores, reduce comedones, improve acne control over time, and support smoother skin texture when tolerated.
What is Tretinoin 0.05% used for?
Tretinoin 0.05% is mainly used for acne-prone skin and selected dermatologist-directed skin-renewal plans.
How soon does it work?
Visible improvement commonly takes several weeks, and early irritation or acne flare can occur.
Can more cream work faster?
No. Applying more often or more thickly usually increases irritation without faster benefit.
Why use sunscreen?
Tretinoin can increase sun sensitivity, and sunburn can worsen irritation.
Can Tretinoin 0.05% be used during pregnancy?
No. Avoid topical tretinoin during pregnancy and while trying to conceive. If pregnancy occurs during treatment, stop applying it and contact the prescriber to discuss an alternative acne treatment.
