Contact UsWhat Is Tretinoin?
Many of our Roseville and Walnut Creek, 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
Dr. Anwar is amazing! I had a lip treatment, and the results are exactly what I wanted—natural, fuller lips with just the right balance. His attention to detail and professionalism made me feel completely comfortable. Highly recommend!
Dr. Anwar’s Tixel treatment was fantastic! My skin looks refreshed, smoother, and I’ve noticed a real improvement in fine lines. He explained everything clearly, so I felt completely at ease. Can’t wait to come back for my next session!
I first went to Doctor Anwar a few weeks ago because he was the only injector in the area that had an ultrasound machine and I was curious to see if I had filler migration. Over the last couple months my face has been looking incredibly swollen and unlike myself (I have been getting filler for years and this happens to the best of us), he was wonderful and showed me where the filler had migrated and suggested that I had it dissolved and would wait a few weeks and then come back and place it where it should be properly placed. I recently went back in to have my filler redone and I am floored by the change! I look 10 years younger than I did before I went in with all my filler migration. He did an amazing job at replacing everything. He did not try to upsell me on anything that was not needed or he felt would make me look over done. I am very please with my results.
I had a microneedling session at Modern Aesthetics & Wellness, and the results have been beyond my expectations. Dr. Anwar and his staff are fantastic—they made me feel comfortable and cared for throughout the entire process. The office is modern and beautifully decorated, which adds to the overall relaxing atmosphere. Dr. Anwar explained the procedure and aftercare thoroughly, and the results were fantastic. My skin looks smoother, more even, and has a healthy glow. I’m so glad I chose Dr. Anwar for this treatment.
I had an exceptional experience at Modern Aesthetics & Wellness. I visited Dr. Anwar for a HydraFacial, and it was fantastic. The office is pristine, and the atmosphere is very calming. Dr. Anwar and his staff are professional and caring—they made sure I was comfortable and informed throughout the process. The HydraFacial left my skin feeling smooth, hydrated, and glowing. I’ve received so many compliments on my skin since the treatment. I highly recommend Dr. Anwar and his team for their excellent service and results.

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.
