Retinova

Retinova is a medicated cream used in skin care treatments for its exfoliating and renewing effects. It gently causes mild peeling, helping to improve skin texture and stimulate the dermis. Patients often use it under professional supervision to address uneven tone, fine lines, and mild sun damage. Because its effects are subtle and progressive, Retinova is popular among those who want improvement without aggressive procedures. With expert guidance, its benefits can contribute significantly to a smoother, more radiant complexion.

What Is Retinova Cream?

Retinova is a prescription-strength cream that works similarly to retinoids—promoting cellular turnover and encouraging collagen renewal. It helps improve skin appearance by reducing roughness and dullness. Many clinics use Retinova alongside treatments like peels, lasers, or filler maintenance to enhance results. When used correctly, it offers a safe, effective way to rejuvenate skin texture over time while minimising irritation.

Benefits Of Using Retinova

Using Retinova can lead to smoother, more even skin, reduced appearance of fine lines, and improved tone and clarity. Patients often notice a fresh, luminous complexion after consistent use. Because it’s less invasive than many laser or surgical treatments, Retinova is a popular option for ongoing skin maintenance. With professional oversight, side effects such as irritation and peeling are minimised.

How To Use Retinova Safely

For optimal results and minimal discomfort, use Retinova as part of a structured skin care plan. Start with lower frequency (e.g. every other night) to allow skin to adjust, use gentle cleansers, and always wear sunscreen. Professional guidance is important for monitoring reaction and adapting usage. London-based clinics often pair this product with post-treatment care to help maintain outcomes safely.

Retinova Vs Other Retinoids

While many retinoid creams are available, Retinova is often chosen for its strength and proven effects under professional supervision. It may cause more peeling or irritation initially compared to gentler over-the-counter formulas, but delivers more significant renewal. Knowing the difference helps patients set realistic expectations and avoid overuse or adverse reactions.
