FAQ
- What is retinol?
Retinol is a form of vitamin A commonly used in topical skin care products. After application, it is converted by the skin into active retinoid compounds that help support normal skin cell turnover and renewal. These processes contribute to smoother-looking skin and a more even, youthful-looking complexion. - How does retinol reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles?
Retinol helps improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles by supporting normal skin cell turnover and promoting the production of collagen, a structural protein that helps maintain skin's firmness and elasticity. With consistent use, these effects help smooth skin texture and reduce the visible signs of aging. - How long does it take to see visible results?
Retinol works by supporting the skin's natural renewal process, so improvements occur gradually. While individual results vary, many people begin to notice smoother-looking skin within several weeks, with more noticeable improvements in the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and skin texture after 8 to 12 weeks of consistent use. - Why does retinol cause dryness or peeling?
Retinol increases the rate of skin cell turnover, which can temporarily disrupt the skin's moisture barrier as older skin cells are shed and replaced. This adjustment period may cause mild dryness, flaking, peeling, or redness, especially when first starting retinol. These effects often lessen as the skin adapts, and using a moisturizer while introducing retinol gradually can help improve comfort. - Is Swanson Retinol Cream suitable for special diets?
Swanson Retinol Cream is suitable for vegetarians. However, it is not vegan, non-GMO, gluten free, or dairy free.
