Summer use of Renova (tretinoin): Renova (tretinoin) is a topical vitamin a that is used for the reduction of the rough skin texture, fine wrinkles and improvement of uneven skin discoloration. You do not have to stop using it in summer, as you will likely lose the benefits (in your case smoother skin) over time. Your caution is understood. Use of tretinoin can make your skin more sensitive to sunlight/uv. Use spf 30 sunscreen.

Some : If you stop using Renova (tretinoin) for the summer months you will lose some of your benefit. If you are very careful about sun protection and use an effective sunscreen every day then the loss should be minimal.
