Should I use both Retin A and a glycolic?Jan 22, 2011 I would like to know if it is beneficial to use both Retin A and glycolic acid. I use the Cellex C serum in the morning and usually Retin A at night but I have heard that you should also use a glycolic product. If you should use both can I alternate nights and still get the benefit.
I'm glad you asked this. If you are using Retin A or one of the other Vitamin A category creams, you don't need to use a glycolic also. You would be better off with an antioxidant (like the Cellex C serum) or a cell growth factor product like TNS Recovery. Dr. I |
