Included is:

• One 20 gram tube of TretiHeal .05% cream

This is considered a mid-strength retinoid. A great choice for those experienced with retinoid use and are already accustomed to its temporary side effects on the skin, such as flaking and peeling.

What Is TretiHeal 0.05% (Tretinoin Cream)?

TretiHeal tretinoin cream 0.05% is a prescription-strength retinoid derived from vitamin A and used to treat acne, refine skin texture, and reduce visible signs of aging. This formulation helps clear clogged pores, prevent new breakouts, and improve the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone. Because of its balanced mid-range strength, many people choose tretinoin cream 0.05% for noticeable results without the intensity of higher concentrations.

Tretinoin works by increasing skin cell turnover. As older cells shed more efficiently, pores remain clearer and comedonal acne such as whiteheads and blackheads becomes less frequent. In addition, ongoing use supports collagen remodeling, which contributes to smoother texture and improved firmness over time.

Tretinoin—TretiHeal’s active ingredient—is also the only topical compound clinically proven to reduce wrinkles and improve photoaged skin. For this reason, it remains one of the most widely studied and trusted prescription skincare ingredients.

What Results to Expect With TretiHeal 0.05%

Skin improvement takes time and consistency. Acne improvement often becomes noticeable within 8 to 12 weeks, while changes in fine lines, texture, and discoloration may continue developing for 6 to 12 months. During the early adjustment period, mild redness, dryness, peeling, or irritation may occur. These effects typically lessen as the skin adapts. Rather than stopping early, continued use is key to achieving visible results.

How to Apply TretiHeal 0.05%

Use tretinoin cream 0.05% at night:

• Wash hands before and after application

• Cleanse with a gentle, non-irritating cleanser

• Allow skin to dry completely for 20–30 minutes

• Apply a pea-sized amount in a thin, even layer

• Avoid the eyes, mouth, nostrils, and open skin

When starting treatment, apply every other night or every third night. As tolerance improves, increase frequency gradually. Each morning, cleanse the skin and apply a water-based moisturizer to help reduce dryness.

Cautions and Safety Information

TretiHeal 0.05% increases sun sensitivity, so daily sunscreen (SPF 15 or higher) is essential. Limit direct sun exposure and avoid tanning beds. Do not apply to sunburned, irritated, or broken skin.

Avoid combining this product with harsh exfoliants, alcohol-based toners, strong cleansers, benzoyl peroxide, sulfur, salicylic acid, or resorcinol unless directed by a healthcare provider. Discontinue use and seek medical attention if signs of an allergic reaction occur, including swelling, hives, or difficulty breathing.

Store at room temperature, tightly closed, and away from heat or moisture. If a dose is missed, apply it when remembered unless it is close to the next scheduled application. Do not double-apply.

Why Choose TretiHeal Tretinoin Cream 0.05%?

Many users prefer tretinoin cream 0.05% because it offers a balance of effectiveness and tolerability. TretiHeal provides prescription-level results for acne, texture, and early aging concerns while remaining a cost-effective alternative to brand-name tretinoin products.
