Dark spot treatment
Tretinoin: The generic version of Retin-A, tretinoin is the most widely prescribed retinoid that treats signs of skin aging related to sun exposure. Nurx prescribes tretinoin in three strengths. If a patient is new to retinoids they will usually start a patient on the lowest strength and, if desired, switch the patient to a stronger retinoid if the milder retinoid is well-tolerated (meaning it doesn’t cause skin flaking or irritation).
Adapalene: This less irritating retinoid (which has a non-prescription 0.1% strength version called Differin) may be prescribed to people with skin conditions such eczema, or those with very sensitive skin who experience irritation or redness when using tretinoin.
