Transform acne, ageing skin, and hyperpigmentation with Monderma’s micronised tretinoin in a vegan base. Get visible results after 1 week.
Tretinoin is a vitamin A-based retinoid that speeds up skin cell renewal to shrink pores, clear spots, and smooth fine lines.
Developed in the early 1950’s and approved for UK use in 1983, tretinoin became a landmark in dermatology, forming retinoids as central agents in skin renewal treatment.

Monderma's tretinoin is typically applied to your face. It can also be used on your neck and under-eye area with moisturiser. A low strength is recommended for these areas, as they are more sensitive. Avoid applying it too close to your eyelids.
Apply TWO pumps to clean, dry skin on the affected area(s) once daily at NIGHT. After application, wash your hands and follow up with applying a moisturiser. Use a sunscreen of SPF30 or higher daily to protect your skin.
Monderma prescribes tretinoin in strengths ranging from 0.01% to a maximum of 0.1%, in accordance with national guidelines.
The most suitable strength for you varies based on several factors, including whether it is acne, ageing skin, or hyperpigmentation being treated, prior use of retinoids, and individual skin response. Starting too high or increasing strength too quickly can lead to skin irritation.
While some users gradually increase their strength, the majority find that maintaining a consistent, lower concentration provides optimal results for their skin.
You may start to see visible results after 1 week. However, for lasting results, we recommend nightly use for at least 12 weeks.
In most cases, tretinoin is a safe and reliable ingredient for long-term use.
Although tretinoin is designed to treat skin conditions, some users may experience mild side effects. This includes peeling, tingling, and redness, particularly during the initial adjustment period.
To minimise this risk, Monderma recommends starting with a lower strength and applying a moisturiser to support your skin as it adapts.
Tretinoin is not safe for use during pregnancy. If you are trying to conceive, become pregnant, or are breastfeeding, discontinue use immediately and contact us for further guidance.
Tretinoin should not be used with harsh exfoliants, alcohol-based products, retinol, benzoyl peroxide, or salicylic acid at the same time, as these can cause skin irritation. However, it is generally safe to combine with most other over-the-counter skincare products.
If you need to use any other prescription skincare, you must notify Monderma to ensure your tretinoin formula is safe for continued use.
Additionally, always notify each healthcare or procedure provider about your prescription skincare use. Some procedures may require pausing application before and after to minimise the risk of skin sensitivity and adverse reactions.
