Use Tretinoin For Skin That Deserves Center Stage

If you haven't tried Generic Retin-A before, then you are in for a great surprise. There are loads of reasons why it tops all lists of skin care products for anti-aging, treating acne, and even psoriasis and melasma.  Tretinoin is so vital to our skin growth and longevity that our body even synthesizes it from Vitamin-A. When you purchase prescription-only tretinoin, you are receiving the same Vitamin A derivative created in the body.

Tretinoin For Acne And Skin Renewal

Solid research backs Tretinoin/Retin A’s ability to minimize and slow the signs of aging, stimulate collagen and elastin production and repair sun damage (photodamage). Fine lines and wrinkles lessen in severity with continued usage of tretinoin as it plumps skin with more collagen synthesis and supports firming and tightening of skin. Additionally, tretinoin is FDA approved to treat acne vulgaris. It also helps fade scars left by acne and blemishes. 

Retin-A (tretinoin) Fades Hyperpigmentation

Tretinoin is also an effective treatment for melasma, which is hyperpigmentation on the skin that appears as grayish, brown blotches commonly on women's cheeks, cheekbones and upper lip. The main causes of pregnancy mask is hormonal but the hyperpigmentation is worsened by sun exposure. Tretinoin helps fade this discoloration, as well as freckles, age spots, and other types of uneven skin tone.

Once applied to the skin, tretinoin is ready to go and is easily absorbed by the skin where it begins boosting new skin cell growth, stimulating collagen and elastin production.  New skin cell growth helps us shed dead, dull thick layers of skin on the top of our epidermis. While tretinoin increases skin cell production, old skin cells beneath the skin are also pushed to the surface where they exfoliate. Once the dead skin cells flake away, shiny new skin hits the spotlight.

What Are FSA and HSA Accounts?

FSA's and HSA's are federal programs that make it easy for you to enjoy significant tax benefits for qualified out-of-pocket medical expenses. Each program works a little differently but with each you avoid federal, state and local income taxes on any funds that you use for qualified medical expenses.

FSA tax benefits are administered by your job. Funds in an amount that you decide —within the program limits—are withdrawn from your paycheck without any payroll tax deductions.

Tax benefits with an HSA may be administered that way but there are also other options.

How Do I Use My FSA/HSA Funds?

You can use a pre-loaded debit card or get reimbursed from your FSA or HSA account after you make your purchase or a combination of both methods.
