Retinoids: This is the best choice i know. Your physician can be your guide for the best one for you. Apply sparingly. Interested to hear from any dermatologists.

Skin health: Retinol a weaker yet effective precursor to Retin-A or the stronger prescription retinoids such as Retin-A or tazorac (tazarotene) are chosen to fight acne breakouts and smooth fine lines or wrinkles. See a dermatologist for a skin care regimen that is best.
