Contact UsWhat Is Tretinoin?
Many of our Roseville, Walnut Creek, and Yuba City, CA patients come to us with concerns over hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, skin laxity, and uneven texture. One of the solutions we provide at Modern Aesthetics is prescription-strength tretinoin cream. Tretinoin is a stronger cousin to the popular product retinol, which is known for reducing signs of aging, evening out the skin, and assisting with scar care. It can also be used as a solution for acne and controlling breakouts. To find out more about how this product might be right for you, schedule a consultation with Dr. Shahzad Anwar today.
How Is Tretinoin Used?
You will need a consultation appointment with Dr. Anwar before any prescriptions are written. During this time, he may take a medical history, assess your skin's sensitivity levels, and determine what strength and frequency of tretinoin application might be best for your individual needs. He may demonstrate how to apply the product, with care taken to avoid the eye area, as the delicate skin here may be too sensitive for a product of this strength. Finally, a prescription will be filled, and you will have a product supply to be used at the prescribed dosage at home. Dr. Anwar may schedule a follow-up to see how your skin reacts to tretinoin and to check in with how effective the product is for you.
Modern Aesthetics Reviews
I had my laser appointment 2 days ago, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Phoemela was incredibly kind, professional, and made me feel comfortable from the moment I arrived. She explained everything clearly, answered all of my questions, and was very gentle throughout the treatment. I truly appreciated her attention to detail and the care she showed. I highly recommend Phoemela to anyone looking for a great laser technician!
Dr. Anwar and his staff are consummate professionals. I really appreciate the knowledge and expertise Dr. Anwar provides, it’s clear aesthetics is his calling. Staff is warm and friendly. Finally, the best part is I was super anxious about pain and I didn’t even flinch! Can’t wait to come back!
I had laser done with Phomela. She and the rest of the office were great. Super kind, accommodating, and knowledgeable. It made the entire experience great and I was able to ask questions about other possible treatments as well.
I’ve been going to Modern Aesthetics for years, and I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else. Dr. Anwar is the only person I trust with my face. What I appreciate most is how honest he is—he only recommends treatments that you truly need and has never tried to upsell me or push unnecessary treatments. His goal is always natural, beautiful results, and his expertise and attention to detail are second to none.The entire team at Modern Aesthetics is also amazing. Everyone is kind, welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about providing an exceptional experience every time I visit. It’s rare to find a med spa where you feel so confident that you’re receiving honest advice and outstanding care.I recommend Modern Aesthetics to anyone looking for a provider they can truly trust. I wouldn’t go anywhere else.

About UsTretinoin Prescription Cream FAQs
Can tretinoin cream affect skin sensitivity to other treatments?
Tretinoin can increase skin sensitivity to waxing, chemical peels, and laser treatments. Be sure to inform our skin care professionals about tretinoin usage before undergoing any skin procedures to avoid adverse reactions.
Is there a preferred season to start treatment with tretinoin cream?
Dermatologists might recommend starting tretinoin treatment during months with less intense sunlight, like autumn or winter, to reduce the risk of sunburn and skin irritation. However, with adequate sun protection, tretinoin can be used effectively any time of year.
How should tretinoin cream be integrated into a nightly skincare routine?
When incorporating tretinoin cream into a nighttime routine, it should be applied to clean, dry skin before any other skincare products. After applying tretinoin, wait at least 20 to 30 minutes before applying a moisturizer to ensure it doesn't hinder the tretinoin's absorption and effectiveness.
