What are the differences between Retin-a and Renova?
Retin-A and Renova both contain the same active ingredients for treating acne and wrinkles. Retin-A is geared and formulated for younger skin and as a treatment for mild to severe acne, where as Renova is aimed particularly at reducing wrinkles and fine-lines in mature skin. Both products rely on the drug Tretinoin as the primary medication. Accompanied by both lubricants and anti-irritation medications due to the inherently rough nature of Tretinoin on your skin. Retin-A is available as a cream, gel and liquid form, and is recommended for once a day, daily usage. If a dose is skipped do not double up the next day, merely resume your treatments on schedule the next time. It is highly recommended to accompany this medication with an SPF-15 or greater sunscreen and limit the amount of direct sunlight your face receives while on this medication. It typically makes your skin hyper-sensitive to the sun and can cause serious burning if sunscreen is not used and sunlight exposure is high. If
