Love this product

Strong treatment so make sure you build up tolerance first per the directions. I can see a difference in my skin texture after a week of using the product.

Skin Medica retinol 1.0

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have been using using Skin Medica retinol 1.0 for several years. I think it is a great product and use it every other night and I use a moisturizer over it which I suggest to anybody who has sensitive skin. I no longer peel since my esthetician suggested this.

Worth every penny!!! NO MORE ACNE

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I am shook. I tried a retinol cream a few years ago but a VERY low dose and it didn't seem to do much for my acne so I gave up. I stumbled on this product and figured I should try again but with a higher concentration of retinol and OH MY GOODNESS. My acne has completely gone away. Like... none. Not a single spot. My face has not looked this good since I was in high school. I should warn first time retinol users, you WILL get dry skin. Imagine the worst sun burn you've ever had and put it on your face. The peeling was nightmarish, I knew it was coming so I was prepared, but it was much worse than I thought it would be. And slightly painful honestly, but when has beauty ever been painless? Luckily working from home made it easy for me to lotion my skin all day which helped soothe it. After one full week of peeling, my skin is 100% better and totally clear of acne. Even my dark spots and scars are fading. Absolutely worth the week of struggling for these results, I will be a forever purchaser!!

Skinmedica Retinol 1.0

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

Been using this product for two years and my skin looks amazing! It was recommended to me to purchase this product through Dermstore by my dermatologist. I use it three times a week at night after I clean my face. It is excellent for skin tone and overall appearance of skin on your face as you age. I am 64 years of age and many people ask me what I use on my face to look so young!

No irritation

5 stars out of a maximum of 5

I have been using various retinoids for over 2 years. My biggest complaint with other brands was redness and peeling. I switched to this at the recommendation of my dermatologist, and I'm amazed that I have no irritation at all! It is very gentle on my sensitive skin, I can use it every night.
