Does Retin-A (Tretinoin) Delay Skin Aging? 15 Year Review | Beginners Guide | Neck & Chest Update

This is an addendum to my previous video on this topic. ( • Skincare in my 30s, Si... )
I discuss a few key points in further detail, helpful for those beginning their treatment, as well as talk about specific products that helped me manage my treatment in the early stages more than a decade and a half ago.
I also share how I've been using it on my neck and chest which are more sensitive, delicate areas.
I must also emphasize that my diet and lifestyle play a large role in the way my skin looks, too. I take very good care of myself, don't drink alcohol, and I don't smoke.
All things considered, if someone is asking me whether tretinoin is worth it, my answer is: YES.

[@JenniferMyers]

I want to address the comments asking if I've had Botox, fillers, etc. so people can have the truth. I've never gotten anything done to my face. I don't judge anybody if that's the route they choose, but I chose to use topical treatment because I want to be in control of my own face and, also, it's not desirable to me to inject my face with stuff. I like my face the way it is. As for my lack of facial expression, I'm still getting used to filming myself, so that's a part of it. And being an extreme introvert, coupled with my reserved nature, and the fact that in my day to day life I'm teaching meditation & yoga, as well as providing hospice care (these are my occupations), my face looks the way it looks. What I'm trying to say is that we wear our lives on our faces. Everyone does. And I've never been a bubbly, over-animated person, so it would come across extremely artificial if I faked a persona that isn't who I am. Additionally, tretinoin imparts a "pulling" (tightening/firming) effect on the skin, which, is both good and bad. Yes, it makes the complexion appear flawless, but there are definite downsides. I can't open my mouth too widely, or I start to peel immediately, for example. The skin, before it peels (mine peels every day), becomes very tight, and taut, and tightly pulled skin looks ultra smooth and shiny, and then it sort of "cracks" (mine does anyway), starts to flake, and then peels away. New fresh skin is then revealed. This is the mechanism of Retin-A. Ultimately, I take it as a compliment and a testament to the power of this product, if people simply "can't believe" I've achieved my skin with the use of topical cream alone. That people believe me or don't believe me doesn't change the truth, and beyond what I've said here, I can't do much else. It's not my concern to convince anyone of anything. But I did want to address this, since I see numerous comments asking, speculating, and accusing me of not being honest. I have no problem being clear and upfront. This is who I am. I must add, too, for those who have asked tactfully - thank you, by the way. Happy holidays everyone.

I'm honestly always discouraged about this, I've been using sunscreen religiously since I'm 19 and at 28 I have lots of wrinkles that not even my 60y/o mother has, genetics suck big time

[@user-de9ye5be4h]

@@vicvega5971 I think there are exceptions to anything, but I think genetics and collagen breakdown has something to do with it too. but given the premise that the sun is one of the or the number one cause of skin aging, I've actively stayed out of it and shielded myself over the years, and for that reason, the limited exposure has kept it younger looking for sure. I also used hyaluronic acid for about 6 years too and some great creams, but nothing crazy in terms of regular expensive facials etc. Keeping stress low is also critical.

[@Li_Tobler]

[@xenondoro8573]

@@vicvega5971 there are major differences between sunscreen ingredients though. For instance the highly popular Avobenzone works only 2 hours, after that it not only stops protecting from the sun, it also starts to create free radicals. So you should be washing it off and applying a new layer every 2h and nobody does that. The new generation ingredients like Tinosorb are far superior and do not form free radicals.

Just last week my entire face was peeling off because I was using too much all month trying to speed up the process after seeing results..BAD IDEA 😂 your advice is some of the most solid on KZbin about this topic 💯 thank you!

Hello Jennifer! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge! By the way, I really love your style of presentation. You are very elegant, professional and to the point - it's something I see less and less these days. I hope you're doing well and I wish you all the best! :)

There are so many factors that contribute to facial “aging”. I know people who simply took good care of their skin and avoided wrinkles and etc.

[@defgloui]

Great video! I wish I’d started 15 years ago - your skin is flawless. And we’ll done for responding to nasty comments with grace and dignity.

[@ilinel1321]

Does it have an age? Is it better to start young?

[@grimjowjaggerjak]

​@@ilinel1321 Nope, it should be more or less the same since apparently it reverse skin photoaging.

[@Sarah4Poston]

First off, you are absolutely stunning and incredibly adorable! I had to pick my jaw up from the floor when you said you had only sunscreen on. I used tretinoin as a teen/young adult when my skin suffered from cystic acne. I wish I would’ve been able to afford it once on my own. At 40 I am beginning the journey again. I am both nervous and eager to begin this journey, as I know what lies ahead! Thank you so much for sharing your journey and products that helped you along the way!

[@minigirl]

I like your honesty. Thank you Jen. I believe the ret-A pulls the skin more tight as a long runner on this product. You look flawless and keep smearing the lotions on your face and neck!

[@vershaylamorieemartinez327]

Like the old saying says black don’t crack an Asians don’t raisin. Genetics play a part but skin care is a must. You did a wonderful job preserving your skin. ❤️

[@heathermelancon6045]

Ve’rshaylamoriee Martinez well I’m white and have used this same Retin product for years and I’m 44 and everyone thinks I’m in my 20’s! I’ve also avoided the sun and do not smoke. So it isn’t specific to race, it has a lot to do with lifestyle, sun damage, smoking and other factors that cause damage to skin and lighter skin is easily damaged by the sun. I have seen all races skin damaged and aged due to sun and smoke exposure not just to lighter skinned races.

[@vershaylamorieemartinez327]

Heather Melancon I know lol, it’s just an old saying. I’m an esthetician I’m well aware. Every one should wear an SPF an avoid bad habit! 😁 Melanin does help protect your skin but even darker skin people can get sun cancer.

[@bemydinosaur13]

Heather Melancon lol come on heather look at the broad trends. White people simply don’t age as gently in most cases, regardless of skincare, smoking, etc. Of course those things do make a difference and anyone of any race who takes good care of their body and skin will age more gracefully than they would otherwise. But white skin is more photosensitive, and white genetics are markedly different in this regard. Sorry 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@smanthawalsh]

Southern Europeans Italians Spanish Mediterranean have good skin olive skin. The Nordic blondes have issues usually.

[@smanthawalsh]

By the way the girl in this video skin is white very pale and lacks melanin many Asians have whiter skin than Caucasians. Yet her skin still looks good so I’m sure her use of retin a and sun abstinence does help

[@anezkaknezkasnezka]

That's so cool, I'm 22 but her skin looks so much younger than mine. ♥

[@believensee8621]

Thank you Jennifer for sharing. I started my tretinoin journey 4 months ago. I researched fully and read government studies. It has still been a bit rougher than I thought but not unbearable. I REALLY appreciate your tip on adding it to the neck as that area has been too sensitive and I was concerned about my face and neck aging differently. You look amazing and your appearance is really encouraging. 💖

[@moon3899]

I’m 22 and I just started Tretinoin .025%. I’m hoping to move up to .05% once my skin gets used to the product. I had been using Differin for about a year before I started Tretinoin so the side effects aren’t as bad as I thought they would be. But my skin is definitely going through the purging stage. Thank you for your skincare videos!! I have changed my once complicated skincare routine to a much simpler routine now.

[@abdulazuzadel4768]

She looks her age. And looks like her genetics gifted her with clear skin. People who challenge themselves ( users of vet.A) , look like that at 50. It is not for everyone. Many chose other forms of age control. I have seen what fillers do to people. I dont want to look like alien or as elderly person with pulled chin and a hamster chicks. Your age will show anyway. Age is not always wrinkles. But yes, I have seen people using higher strength reverse partially hooded eyes, and those who stick to 0.005% do not achieve much other than glossy skin.

[@sandyg.8318]

aissani imane no ma’am, she looks her age. Maybe it’s because I’m Black that I can’t relate to this aging process but to me she looks her age and that too is okay.

[@madidiamondhands]

I feel like more than your products, its the fact that you don't use foundation and heavy makeup that has made your skin this good. My mother had skin like yours and I couldn't ever find even one pore on her face! She never uses makeup, ever. Well, since I can remember anyway. I'm almost 39 and starting to see the signs of aging and I wish I had my mothers skin 😫

I have been using retin-a for 4 years now and I noticed results after 1 year . It's also very important to use sunscreen every single day.

I've experienced the similar time frame to you. Did not really notice anything until the 11-12 month mark. I've had to dial back because of the side effects but am working my way back up to 1time/day. Skin definitely looks better, and I'm starting to notice some lines getting less visible. can't wait to see how it looks like in another year

[@s.8358]

Started using Korean skincare products at 35 - they do wonders really.. 😊 No harsh peeling effect etc. Had really problematic skin (for more than 19 years) and after only one year, my skin is wonderful. Still looking 15+ years younger and now with great skin, too 😁 Going strong on 195.. 😁

[@farzblue9725]

You look AMAZING! This is what i needed cause I can't get retinols where I live. They are not easy to find and unreasonably expensive too. Tretinoin is cheap to get. But I was not sure if it'd be too harsh but it seems like the real deal. Thank you so much for sharing this. Do you put the tretinoin around eye area too? Also you mentioned vaseline helping, did you put that after your retin A? And you top retina with moisturizing cream?

[@yahwillbeauty6271]

I'm planning to do something like this for 12 yrs using products I created. I'm 28 atm!! Great video 🙂

I can’t afford tretinoin, so I use adapalane. It works super well! I’ve had to limit my use of it Bc of my sensitive skin and having to wear N95’s for work. I use it roughly two times a week and it helps a ton!
