HOW RETINOL IS AN ACNE TREATMENTAcne is a condition of the skin that happened when hair follicles and pores become

filed with oil, dead skin cells, pollutants in the air, and other substances then mix into the area.

Retinol is used to minimize oil production, eliminate bacteria and reduce inflammation. May experience an increase in acne at the beginning of the

treatment.

HOW RETINOL HELPS WITH SKIN SCARSScars occur when blood vessels occupy affected area, which gives the skin a pink appearance. Scars from

acne, pox, accidents or other diseases of the skin can be treated through dermabrasion.

Dermabrasion is the process of sanding down the skin with a rotating brush, which levels the scar in the surrounding area. Not to be confused with microdermabrasion (tiny crystals sprayed on the surface and

used to smooth skin).

After, or along with, the process of dermabrasion, retinol aids the process by reducing collagen synthesis and therefore reducing the significance of the scar.

RETINOL REVERSING THE EFFECTS OF SUN EXPOSURESun is the #1 cause of uneven toning and wrinkling of the skin. The skin naturally tries to compensate the effects of the sun by increasing the production of the pigment melanin, which gives the appearance of either a terrible burn or a beautiful glowing sun tan, depending on your sensitivity to the sun.
