    Glossary Retinoic Acid

    derivative of Vitamin A used in acne and wrinkle treatment

    Retinoic Acid, also known as Tretinoin or ATRA (All-trans Retinoic Acid), is a derivative of Vitamin A that plays a crucial role in cell growth and differentiation. It is commonly used in dermatology to treat acne and reduce wrinkles by promoting the turnover of skin cells and increasing collagen production.
