RETIN-A MICRO® (tretinoin gel) microsphere, 0.04% combats acne with a natural form of vitamin A. Its glycerin-enriched, water-based formula delivers proven action against acne. The result? You may see visible improvement in as little as two weeks with minimal irritation.
• Gentler to the skin. RETIN-A MICRO® is the only retinoid to use breakthrough slow-release technology to help lessen the irritation caused by some acne medications.
• Less facial shine. RETIN-A MICRO® uses microscopic sponge-like beads to help absorb facial oil so your skin has a more natural, less shiny look.
• Acne: Retin-A brings acne plugs (blockages) to the surface causing blackheads to be dislocated. The blackheads are then discarded from the skin during cleansing. Retin-A can help control acne breakouts as well.
• Hyperpigmentation: The ingredients in Retin-A can help sun-damaged skin, including age discoloration spots and light freckling.
• Poor Skin Texture: The increased exfoliation process from Retin-A removes dead cells and stimulates new skin cells to improve the texture of the skin.

• Use tretinoin topical exactly as your doctor has prescribed it for you. Using more medicine or applying it more often than prescribed will not make it work any faster, and may increase side effects. Do not use this medication for longer than your doctor has prescribed.
• Wash your hands before and after applying tretinoin topical. Before applying, clean and dry the skin area to be treated. Applying tretinoin topical to wet skin may cause skin irritation. If you use Renova, wait at least 20 minutes after washing your face before applying a thin layer of the medication.
• Do not wash the treated area for at least 1 hour after applying tretinoin topical.
• Avoid the use of other skin prodcts on the treated area for at least 1 hour following application of tretinoin topical. Applying an excessive amount of tretinoin gel may result in "pilling" of the medication. If this occurs, use a thinner layer of gel with the next application.
• Tretinoin topical should be used as part of a complete skin care program that includes avoiding sunlight and using an effective sunscreen and protective clothing.
• Use this medication for as many days as it has been prescribed for you even if you think it is not working. It may take weeks or months of use before you notice improvement in your skin. If you are using tretinoin topical to treat acne, your condition may get slightly worse for a short time when you first start using the medication. Call your doctor if skin irritation becomes severe or if your acne does not improve within 8 to 12 weeks.
• Store tretinoin topical at room temperature away from moisture and heat. The gel formulations of Retin-A are flammable, keep them away from open flame.
