A-Ret Tretinoin Gel 0.1% (20g)

A-Ret Tretinoin Gel 0.1% (20g)

A high-strength tretinoin gel for experienced users with oily or acne-prone skin seeking maximum results.

A-Ret 0.1% Gel delivers the highest concentration of tretinoin in a lightweight, fast-absorbing gel base. Designed for skin that has already built tolerance to lower strengths, it helps target stubborn acne, congestion, uneven texture and visible signs of ageing — without the heaviness of a cream.

This strength is best reserved for those who know how their skin responds to tretinoin and prefer a non-greasy finish.

Why you’ll love it ✨

• Helps treat persistent or resistant acne

• Lightweight gel suits oily and acne-prone skin

• Helps reduce congestion and clogged pores

• Targets pigmentation, post-acne marks and uneven tone

• The most potent gel option in the A-Ret range

Who it’s best for ?

• Experienced tretinoin users only

How to use ?

• Apply at night to clean, completely dry skin

• Use a pea-sized amount for the entire face

• Start 1–2 nights per week, increasing slowly as tolerated

• Follow with a gentle moisturiser

• Use daily sunscreen — tretinoin increases sun sensitivity

Dryness, peeling or irritation is more likely at this strength, especially when starting.
