What changes the result

Three things that matter alongside treatment.

  1. 01

    Protect the skin barrier

    A gentle cleanser and a daily moisturizer keep the barrier intact, which is what tretinoin tests in the first weeks. A stronger barrier means fewer dropouts.

  2. 02

    Calm what is inflaming it from inside

    Stress, gut health and the immune system all feed into skin. A food pattern built on anti-inflammatory foods, steady sleep and a stress outlet give the cream a better starting point.

  3. 03

    Let sunlight stop undoing the work

    Sun exposure is the main driver of photoaging and makes retinoid-treated skin burn more easily. A daily broad-spectrum sunscreen and a hat protect the progress you are building.

Your skin-care journey.

Tell your clinician about your skin concerns, current products, and health history. Include any pregnancy plans before discussing prescription options.

If treatment is prescribed, follow your clinician’s instructions and ask how it fits with the products you already use.

Keep track of how your skin feels. Contact your care team about irritation or other concerns rather than pushing through them.

Review your experience with your clinician. Changes to your routine should reflect your skin’s response and your treatment plan.

Stay in touch as your skin or health needs change. Your clinician can help you reassess what belongs in your routine.

Your questions, answered.

Messaging the care team from home
Which skin treatment is right for me?+

Your clinician reviews your concerns, skin-care routine, and health history before deciding whether a prescription fits. Availability alone does not mean a treatment is right for every person.

How do I fit a retinoid into my routine?+

Ask your clinician how to introduce it and which other products to use. Retinoids can irritate skin; sun protection is important. Contact your care team if your skin becomes painful or irritated.

What if I’m pregnant or planning pregnancy?+

Tell your clinician before starting treatment. Retinoids should not be used during pregnancy. Ask your clinician about suitable options when planning pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Will I automatically get a prescription?+

No. A licensed clinician reviews your information and prescribes only when appropriate. You may be advised to seek another form of care.

What does it cost to start?+

A $20 clinician review, refunded if you’re not prescribed. Each plan shows its lowest rate with the real bill, and you can cancel anytime.

How fast is it?+

A US-licensed clinician reviews within 24 hours, and approved orders ship free in 2 to 5 business days.
