Acne
Acne is a skin condition characterized by the accumulation of oil and dead skin cells within hair follicles, resulting in the formation of blackheads, whiteheads, and pimples.
Supatret Gel 0.4 contains Tretinoin, classified as a Retinoid, designed to prevent and treat acne.
Furthermore, it reduces the likelihood of acne recurrence and facilitates skin renewal.
Reduces wrinkles
Additionally, it diminishes the visibility of lines and wrinkles on the face.
Tretinoin is most effective when integrated into a skincare regimen that incorporates sunscreen.
However, it should be noted that it cannot eliminate deep fine lines caused by sun damage or deep wrinkles associated with the natural aging process.
Working
The active salt in Supatret Gel .04, Tretinoin, is vitamin A.
It stops the skin from making excess oil and kills the bacteria that cause acne and redness.
The skin generates more collagen and blood vessels, which causes wrinkles.
