I recently saw a documentary on TV where a dermatologist said that the only proven cream to reduce wrinkles was Retin-A. She also mentioned that this product was on prescription only.
In my search online for retin-A I have come accross many products that can be brought online, although I'm not sure about the quality of the products.
I'd be greatful for any tips in finding a cream with Retin-A in it and suggestions on where to buy online.
Cheers

| Hi, libby. Horizon drugs sells Retin A without a Rx. Also, if you do a search on this board there is some info on Retin A. HTH! |

| Thanks for the info. I had been reading the board and noticed that a some people used Retin-A although didn't know where to buy it. What is Rx? excuse my ignorance LOL, but I'm not used to the abreviations yet |

| I'm using the Retin-A 0.1% that I purchased from Medsmex and am very satisfied with the results that I am getting. The customer service from this company was also very good. |

Has anyone tried the PSF Retin A product? I can't use Green Cream or traditional Retin A on my neck but am able to use the PSF .05%
Any one else have experiences with that? |

Rx means a medicine/drug prescribed by your physician or doctor. Here in the US, Retin A can't be purchased over-the-counter; one must have a prescription from his/her doctor. Many, including myself, have purchased Retin A online through foreign pharmacies without a prescription. I have used Medsmex also and was pleased with their service.

I took a look at the sites. I'm going to try the Retin-A 0.1%. I hope thats the correct one to use? any tips on that too. Is the renova cream the same as Retin-A? with just a different brand name?
Thanks again |

| The .1 is the strongest, so start very carefully if you have not used the Retin A before. You could think about starting with a lesser percentage. From my understanding, Renova is for more mature/dry skin. |
