    Glossary Synthetic Retinoids

    man-made compounds mimicking vitamin A to treat skin conditions

    Synthetic retinoids are man-made compounds that mimic the action of vitamin A in the body. They are often used in dermatology to treat conditions like acne, psoriasis, and certain types of hair loss, including alopecia, by promoting cell turnover and reducing inflammation.
