Top tips on using Retinoids for healthy skin

Dr Mai Elsayed Specialist Dermatologist at OmniCare Medical & Aesthetic

As the weather changes, Dr. Mai Elsayed, Specialist Dermatologist at OmniCare Medical & Aesthetic highlights the right way to use retinoids or vitamine A derivatives that act effectively as an anti-aging skin treatment.

Retinoids are used to clear skin from acne, help with hyperpigmentation, provide better texture of the skin and minimizes pores and fine lines. The right way to use is to start first with the lowest concentration but before applying it to the skin, one must protect the senstive area around the eyes and the mouth with a moisture based gel or vasline.

Users must use only a pea size drop from the retinoids cream. The process begins by first by cleaning the face with a cleanser and then use a moisturizer as base before spreading the retinoids. Users can then apply the moisture again for added benefit to the skin.

 To protect the skin from damage, it is very important to apply the sun protection in the morning before starting your beauty regime. It is essential to protect the skin from harmful UV rays. For normal and oily skin, retinoids can be used at first every other day for the first month and then every day.

For users with senstive skin, it is safe in the first month to use it once every three days, and then once every two days in the second month. Following this, the retinoids can be used once at night every day from the third month of use.

Not taking care of the skin can lead to premature ageing. Experts often warn youth to take necessary precautions as skin damages can have long-lasting effects but with a little extra care and a few simple changes in your everyday skincare regimen can make a different and the result of using retinoids can lead to healthy glowing skin all year round.
