Retin-A as an anti-aging ingredients is old news. I don't live in the 80s so would certainly won't go back then for my skincare. Now, we have peptides and growth factors, niacinamide, stem cells...

Whilst I agree that it can increase photosensitivity there are more studies on Retin A than any other topical we know of to date, and so the suggestion that anyone who uses Retin A is doing so baesd on historic information or studies is highly incorrect on so many levels but each to their own I suppose.

From what I’ve read its results are well documented - scientifically - and much more so than niacinamide or peptides. I’ve also read many blogs where people in their 20s and 30s are using it - in lower dosages - as a preventative measure.

While growth factors and stem cells may have great potential - I’ve yet to find much scientific evidence.
