Retin-a picture

Retin-A and Avita should be applied once a day, at bedtime, tothe skin where acne appears, using enough to lightly cover the affected area. The liquid form may be applied using a fingertip, gauze pad, or cotton swab. If you use gauze or cotton, avoid over saturation, which might cause the liquid to run into areas where treatment is not intended.Renova is also applied once daily at bedtime. Use only enough to lightly cover the affected area. Before you use Renova, wash your facewith a mild soap, pat your skin dry, and wait 20 to 30 minutes. Then apply a dab of Renova cream the size of a pea and spread it lightly over your face, avoiding your eyes, ears, nostrils, mouth, and open wounds.You may use cosmetics while being treated with these products;however, you should thoroughly cleanse the areas to be treated before applying the medication.If your skin becomes too dry, you may want to use petroleum jelly or another emollient during the day.If there is no immediate improvement, or new blemishes appear, don't get discouraged; it takes weeks for the medicine to take effect.
