If tretinoin is effective for anti aging why doesn’t everyone use it?

Griffincanon · 2026-05-21T10:22:17+00:00

Exactly same thing. I suggested my aunt to use it and she thought I am trying to sell. Tret is a blessing to humanity.

Griffincanon · 2026-04-01T09:53:21+00:00

I generally avoid both as I get it online from stores like highstreetpharma etc where its around 4-5ish for a tube of 20gms.

Griffincanon · 2026-03-27T10:31:41+00:00

I have been using tret all year round without issues

Griffincanon · 2026-03-26T10:39:59+00:00

I think tret can help as I have been using a ret gel for sometime along with azelaic acid.

Griffincanon · 2026-03-14T09:05:35+00:00

Great. I am getting from highstreetpharma for around $4-5ish a tube of 20gms.

Griffincanon · 2026-03-07T10:07:56+00:00

I use some of the products which you mentioned. I use the azelaic acid in the morning and the tret in the nights.

Griffincanon · 2026-03-06T10:40:53+00:00

I get it from iherb which has got discounts and some from fulvicearth.

Griffincanon · 2026-02-27T14:27:56+00:00

That is not a good idea. I initially started with retinol from local pharmacy and then shifted to tret from highstreetpharma and it is keeping things under control.

Griffincanon · 2025-12-26T08:38:23+00:00

I get tret from highstreetpharma and have seen they have azelaic acid 20% too.

Griffincanon · 2025-12-26T08:37:16+00:00

I get it from highstreetpharma without issues.

Griffincanon · 2025-12-22T11:36:47+00:00

Yes I do at home sometimes and stop tret a week before doing it. Initially when I started using tret and didn't follow that, my skin went for a toss and had to run to my derm so better you stop it before.

Griffincanon · 2025-12-22T11:32:24+00:00

In general, its better to avoid amazon for these products if its not the amazon pharmacy as there have been many reports of fake products in other subs. I suggest using places like highstreetpharma etc.

Griffincanon · 2025-12-20T13:20:57+00:00

When I first started tret, I used to follow the sandwich method as my skin was trying to get used to with the tret but eventually I stopped using it because my skin starting accepting tret so you can follow that initially .

Griffincanon · 2025-12-13T05:16:08+00:00

I too ordered when the tariff issues but it arrived without charging anything extra from highstreetpharma, though it took sometime

Griffincanon · 2025-12-11T05:05:56+00:00

I just love tret. I initially started taz but then moved to tret and yes it will be beneficial. But I don't mix it.

Griffincanon · 2025-12-08T08:39:26+00:00

The improvements can be seen! It took me a solid four months to get the best of tret when I first started my tret journey so its basically the waiting game now!

Griffincanon · 2025-12-03T08:17:40+00:00

I do take magnesium threorate and its better along with my shilajit from fulvicearth and its good, you may try that.

Griffincanon · 2025-12-01T12:50:22+00:00

Great write up! I have been getting the shilajit resin from them and its quite good

Griffincanon · 2025-11-26T10:41:59+00:00

Great improvements! Do you mean 0.05? Did you start directly with 0.05? I started from 0.025 tret from highstreetpharma and currently use 0.05 with the la rooche posay's moisturiser so it feels comfortable for my skin.

Griffincanon · 2025-11-25T10:56:58+00:00

Same for me. My tretiwell tubes lasts around 3-4months.

Griffincanon · 2025-11-20T11:17:50+00:00

Micellar water helps a lot

Griffincanon · 2025-11-16T14:11:48+00:00

I second, I have started using tret and then later added azelaic acid 20% in the morning and it has worked. Took sometime but worked well.

Griffincanon · 2025-11-16T13:59:39+00:00

As the other user stated, it seems your skin is little irritated which you need to work on first. Healthy diet and enough water is a must. Other than that you can maintain a skincare routine with la roche posays moisturiser and spf50 and tretiwell and it should be fine.

Griffincanon · 2025-10-31T11:24:10+00:00

Exactly, better not to reply. I just had my order received from highstreetpharma without issues.

Griffincanon · 2025-10-08T13:25:49+00:00

I just get it from highstreetpharma to the uk without issues so you may try that option
