    GlossaryTopical Retinoids

    medications derived from vitamin A applied to the skin

    Topical retinoids are medications derived from vitamin A that are applied to the skin to treat various conditions, including acne, psoriasis, and signs of aging. They work by promoting cell turnover, reducing inflammation, and unclogging pores, which can improve skin texture and tone. Common forms include retinoid creams, gels, and ointments, with popular examples being tretinoin and adapalene.
