How CAROT-A SOLUTION Works
Tretinoin (a retinoid/vitamin A derivative) increases skin cell turnover and normalizes follicular keratinization, helping unclog pores and reduce comedones. It also reduces inflammation and improves pigmentation and texture over time.
Dosage & Directions
For external use only. Apply a very thin layer once daily at night on clean, completely dry skin over affected area; avoid eyes, lips, nostrils and broken/irritated skin. Start with alternate nights if irritation occurs; use moisturizer and daily sunscreen. Do not apply immediately after washing; wait 20–30 minutes.
Always follow your doctor's prescription. Do not self-medicate.
