0.1% Retinal Face Cream Dermomedica Retinolic 0.1% Retinal Cream

An anti-aging cream designed for sensitive, highly vascularized skin prone to telangiectasia, irritated skin, in cases of rosacea, and severe inflamed acne, without causing skin irritation. The primary active ingredient of the cream is retinal in high concentration. Retinal is an active form of vitamin A, which, after penetrating the stratum corneum, is converted into retinoic acid.

Retinal – a retinoid that stimulates the renewal and reconstruction of the dermis, improving the density and contour of the face. This form of vitamin A is much better tolerated than retinol, with a more potent active effect, hence its presence in a small dose. Retinal is also used as an alternative to retinol during the spring and summer periods, especially for hyperpigmentation and acne – it acts as an inhibitor of Staphylococcus bacteria and Candida yeast. It does not irritate the skin or cause a retinoid reaction. It directly affects skin vascularization and the activity of sebaceous glands, delivering impressive results in the treatment of rosacea and vulgar acne, further enhanced by niacinamide.

Niacinamide, used in the cream at a concentration of 1%, is referred to as a natural antibiotic, soothing inflammation, significant redness, and gradually lightening discoloration. The rejuvenating effect is reinforced by the plant equivalent of retinol - bakuchiol, which suppresses collagenase activity, thereby increasing skin firmness, and acts as an inhibitor of Cutibacterium Acnes, Staphylococcus, and Candida yeast.

The cosmeceutical product additionally contains vitamin E and resveratrol with antiradical properties. Resveratrol is an advanced antioxidant ingredient that extends cell life and inhibits glycation processes, making the skin more firm and elastic. Resveratrol supports the skin during hormonal imbalances, as it has a structure similar to estrogens.
