Tretinoin is one of the best products for getting rid of acne. It is well know that acne represents a very big problem especially for teenagers, and not only them. Some times you can’t just use Tretinoin and get rid of problems. A more complex procedure is needed in order for the treatment with Tretionin to succeed. Not everybody can use Tretinoin without some moisture products. For an efficient acne treatment it is always recommended the use of some lotions, creams, or some oils for moisturizing your skin.

A few practical advices for your acne treatment with Tretinoin

Tretinoin should only be used after you cleaned your face. You can clean your face with water and soap, or you can use some special substances or cleaning lotions. After you cleaned your face you can use a special oil or a mix of several creams to moisture your skin. Wait for your face to dry and only afterward apply Tretinoin in the correct dosage your doctor prescribed it for you. Remember that if you use this drug to combat acne it is very important for your skin to be very well moisturized. Tretinoin is usually recommended for night usage because there is a possibility for Tretinoin to make your acne look worse than before for a couple of hours. Of course you can use Tretinoin at any time of the day. A very important thing to remember is that for the acne treatment to be a complete success you must use skin moisture products such that the skin can be more receptive to the treatment.

What moisture products can help your skin?

Don’t waste your time with creating vicious circles by over-stripping with alkaline cleansers, salicylic acid or other products targeted to oily, breakout prone skin.

Look for products that have both aloe vera and hyaluronic acid. This combination is a great way to hydrate and soothe the skin. Aloe vera also works as a delivery system for the hyaluronic acid making your skin properly hydrated and in an even manner. Also try to use as much as possible creams rich in Vitamin E because it is a naturally powerful antioxidant, which nourishes the skin while helping to protect it against premature aging and harsh environmental elements. It does that by helping the skin to retain moisture.

Always use a specific type of moisture cream corresponding to the type of the day you want to use Tretinoin. If you use Tretinoin during the day use a day cream, if you use it at night use a night moisture cream. For a sensitive skin you must use something that can protect and soothe your sensitive skin with a gentle, easily absorbed, non-greasy lotion that has SPF 15 as its main component.

Remember that if you use the right products, there’s no reason you can’t have the best of both worlds; fewer breakouts, a much needed “drink” for your skin and an absolute successful acne treatment with Tretinoin. It is in your power to do only the best for you skin.
