Your are not only a great Doctor, also an excellent teacher. .. Thank you Dr. Dray. Happy Tuesday

Yes she is most definitely a great teacher as well. And I had her, I would have aced all of my classes in college.

[@dianep.7503]

You make the complicated understandable. Great talk!

[@DrDrayzday]

thanks

[@qingyicao7967]

This is super helpful, finally found a video that can break down what is reliable evidence versus not for Retin-A/Retinol products. The geeky side of me just love it when you bring out scientific studies, evidence and numbers. Please keep bringing great information to us!! Thank you thank you

[@lyric1446]

I'm so thankful I found your channel. About two years I was developing cystic hormonal acne. I went to my primary doctor to ask for a refuel to an dermatologist just to be turned away. She told me they would not treat me for something as "small" as acne and that I'd basically waisting their time. Not knowing otherwise I thought that was true. So my acne continued to suffered for over another year till I found you. You have helped so much and my acne is going away, sadly I'm still burdened by scars and hyper pigmentation because of her misconduct. But I can't say thank you enough for putting this information out there, if I never found you I know I'd still be suffering from it.

[@marywhite5802]

I hope you found a ew doctor. Her conduct was irresponsible to say the least.

[@seechangenyc280]

This video has to be on your Best of Reel.....You blew my mind (and my regimen, in a good way). Why the heck am I using an expensive medical grade retinol? This video really gave me pause - about retinol and the health care provider I trust. My wallet and my face are so grateful. Sometimes when you're in a pro's chair you give up power. Instead, thanks to you, now I feel empowered.

[@jackiemarsh2470]

Loved this video!! I always enjoy the reviews about this subject!! I learn so much, and love doing so!!The way you explain things is so easy to follow!! Thank you for another Amazing review Dr. Dray!! Please enjoy the rest of your Day!!

[@nataliaspinelli9747]

In summary - if you can get prescription for Tretinoin (Retin A) - do it! BEST OPTION! Second best option is Adapalene (Differin over the counter) And the last option (if the other options don’t work for you) get a retinol product (like CeraVe resurfacing).

[@im093]

I wonder if Dr Dray knows just how much she is helping people all over the world learn more and feel better about our skin. Thank you so so SO MUCH! ✨

[@LedaSBotelho]

I love the depth you describe the ingredients and your preferred choice. You make things so much more understandable much more than my previous dermatologist EVER did. She just looked at my skin and gave me a prescription. Thanked me and walked away. You're truly a blessing. Sending love to you, your mom and Tybee!!!

[@DrDrayzday]

:)

[@jennifergraham6228]

This is perhaps the most helpful info that this 49 year old has ever received. THANK YOU for cutting through all the marketing fluff that surrounds retinol.

[@kjmumma]

Thank you sooo much for this super informative video. I’m an environmental engineer by trade and it is super frustrating how much poor info is being flogged as “fact” in all facets of beauty products. I love your approach and am hooked on your channel.

[@kaumakawailani]

Thank you so much for putting in the time and effort to produce such valuable content! I have been watching your channel for a long time now and have changed so much of what I do as a result of learning from you. I was previously using Dermalogica a while back after having attended a few of their 'master classes.' After watching your channel, I've come to learn that 'less is more' and that I don't have to necessarily spend a ton of money to get quality skin care. My previous night time skin care routine consisted of 11 Dermalogica products: pre-cleanse, lactic acid cleanser, Rice enzyme powder, Anti-oxidant toner, vitamin C serum, eye cream, neck cream, mask, cocoon moisturizer, etc. I've now reduced my night time skin care regimen to just an oil based first cleanse, Cerave hydrating face wash, and the Cerave moisturizer and saved a TON of money. Sincere appreciation for all you do for your viewers!!!

[@wendyfrech7863]

From razors to the Aveeno cleanser and balm for face and body, to haircare, your fact-based advice has saved me money, streamlined my routine and improved my skin health. Thank you for your sage advice.

[@kellyl4301]

Thanks to you I now apply sunscreen every morning and then right before I leave work. Basically anytime I know I'm going to be outside. AND I bought some driving gloves and oversized sunglasses to protect my very pale skin. You're the bomb!

[@romarina2687]

Kelly L Hi Kelly, I’ve heard that it’s better to apply sunscreen at least 30 minutes before sun exposure because the product “settles” better, I’m not sure about that

[@Milbia]

Romarina it depends what kind of sunscreen you have. Some (chemical sunscreen) take like 20 minutes to “work” and some (physical sunscreen) provide protection as soon as they’re applied

[@epsita1]

Your vast knowledge helps in great ways. Thanks for everything. My current routine consists neutrogena hydroboost water gel, neutrogena drytouch spf 50,simple moisturiser, adefrin gel. All thanks to you.

[@vickytime3855]

Thank you for explaining so clearly what the difference is between these products. Cosmetic companies really find a way to muddy the waters for consumers.

[@planetclaire8468]

As always, thank you for the incredibly thorough explanation and for making this understandable for the general public. Your videos give us so much more confidence when choosing akin care products!

[@RockeyToes]

Loved this video, it's so comprehensive and informative! Thank you for breaking everything down.

[@carolhelms7545]

I get so excited when I see a new video! 20 mins or so of med school for free. Typing this on a rainy day with Canmake Mermaid Gel on my face......would have never applied sunscreen before on a day like today pre-Dr. Dray.

[@laurahelene9118]

Clear and concise much needed information excellently delivered. Thank you Dr. Dray! 💜

[@DrDrayzday]

Thanks for watching :)

[@1Riquena]

You’re awesome , thanks for the public service you do to all women!

[@faithcross4017]

Always appreciate the knowledge you pass on, I have learnt a great deal and always read the ingredient list before I make a purchase.

[@Jennifermwb]

If more derms were willing to put personal and often misogynistic attitudes aside and prescribe tretinoin then people would not waste so much money on less effective or ineffective OTC retinols. I am almost 40. I went to 2 different derms and 3 different PCP who told me that I didn't need to worry about fine lines yet. One who told me I needed to stop being so vain and worry about being a mother to my kids and come back when they were grown, one who told me he was tired of seeing women try so hard to stay young and that I was a such a pretty "girl" who needed to just age gracefully. I finally just went through Curology and got Tretinoin that way. There are still far too many barriers to effective treatment (for women in particular, in the US in particular) for antiaging and even acne. So people turn to cosmeceuticals because they feel like they have few other options.

[@cassiebrown9786]

Jennifermwb, you had a derm tell you to stop being so vain? That really made me LOL. I had a derm tell me one time I shouldn't waste his time, because I had the kind of skin the ten women in his office that morning would kill to have. That may be true, but I want to keep my skin looking nice for a long time. I'm 60 and had to learn to gather as much information on how to achieve good skin care health. I reference from this channel on occasion and occasionally beautypedia website. Good luck.

[@afyaabrafi5433]

Oh WOW 😲😲😲. Sorry you had such awful experiences!!! They are douchebags of the medical profession! 😡😒.

[@perfumaphilia3246]

Jennifermwb That's shockingly unprofessional and dispicable treatment, and I'm so sorry you had to go through that! I had no idea you could get Tretinoin through Curology, so I looked into it more closely. From the looks of it, you're given a customized formula with three active ingredients. May I ask what formula you were "prescribed"? I really want to sign up for it for anti-aging, but I'm nervous about the inclusion of three different active ingredients all at once on my sensitive skin and mild rosacea. I really just want the Tretinoin and maybe Niacinamide, but even just starting Tretinoin alone would be intense enough.

[@juliepoolie5494]

Perfumaphilia There’s another subscription service called Dermatica that will put two actives in your formula. I have .05 tretinoin and 4% niacinamide and it works great! I’m sure you could get lower tretinoin percent too.

[@JenDoe1]

Julie Om thanks so much for sharing!!! Curology for some bizarre reason isn’t in my state yet?! So I’m going to check this company out now. I also want the Tretinoin and Niacinamide! Thank you!! ☺️ edit: my darn state!!! They do it in all the states around me except for mine! 🥴

[@keepfitgirl8191]

I really hope that brands like the Ordinary and L'oreal start bringing out retinaldehyde products. The prices of the few on the market are above my budget. Thanks for thinking of us in the UK. You are correct in thinking the Avene product is on available here. Osmosis also do a retinaldehyde product but that's expensive too. Emma x

[@laurasantangelo-mclarnon1822]

So great to view such a common sense approach to fact based skincare. Thank you!

[@STCJCAC]

Wow 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 you broke it down!!! I completely get it and know what to look out for now 🥳

Dr. Dray, Thank you so much for the comparison...you make it so much easier to make an educated decision. You answer all the questions about products/ingredients...love the knowledge. Thank you:))))))))))))))))

[@anne-laureboncori845]

Great video! Crucial topic! And wonderful skincare science “teacher”

[@sharischmidt4712]

Great talk on a confusing ingredient, mostly because of what the cosmetic skin Care companies try to tell us . I started using prescription retinoid in my forties and have been extremely happy with it. My prescription is my go-to, along with CeraVe moisturizer and sunscreen, sunscreen and sunscreen!!

Excellent informative fact based video as always Dr Dray. Could you please review Deciem's Niod range; MmhC2 serum etc.

[@lorrainecampbell374]

Wow - Thank you Dr Dray. It cost me £230 for a consultation with my Dermatologist. And the private prescription is approximately £130 for Pigmanorm, which costs roughly £5 on the NHS. Thank you for your time

[@paulachristie7807]

I am lucky enough to have a prescription for Tretinoin. Using Good Rx (here in the states) I was able to get a 45 gram tube of 0.05 for $59.00 this week. I noticed the Avene product you list is about the same amount for about half the product. I know people think Tretinoin is expensive but using a pea sized amount every night my tube lasts months.

[@Terri10811]

I really like the Avene line especially cicalfate cream doesn't break me out and helps dry areas n my face. Really like your videos, thank you ☕️

[@HinaEmiBunBun]

I don't know why this video doesn't have more views. This is by far the most factual and evidence supported video on youtube that I've found on the potential effectiveness of using a retinol or retinaldehyde

[@DrDrayzday]

Emi Lemony thanks for watching 💙

[@Jae_intheLord]

Thank you so much for this video. Just ran into a website that said retinaldehyde is more effective and less irritating than retinol and I was wondering what you would say about it. It's no surprise at all that you have a video on the subject. Excited to watch it now for the answer. 🎉

[@OhMGtoo]

Again, very informative. Thank you Doc👍

[@Lynds75]

“It’s like trying to drive the car before being able to see over the steering wheel.” So true! 😂 I am using Tretinoin for the anti- aging benefits and my teenage daughter is using it for acne. I keep telling her she NEEDS to use sunscreen consistently with it and in the long run she will thank me for it! Thanks again for another fantastic evidence based video! 😊

[@bvrlylava]

Which retinal number are u using? Do you use it on your neck and undereyes? How’s it going so far?

[@ellefred4631]

I have a few variations of pustular psoriasis and sensitive skin. To make a long story short, I was convinced a natural skin care routine would improve my psoriasis and I quit my dermatologist, I would even go to the beach because I took the advice of a naturalist who said sunlight would improve my psoriasis, and, yes, it helped. STUPID, because I ended up with sun damaged irritated skin and very hard to treat psoriasis. Now I am on a dermatologist prescribed skin care routine and I started Differin about 6 weeks ago. I wanted to use tretinoin, but my dermatologist said to try Differin. My skin requires more moisture, but I tolerate Differin just fine.

[@aleksandrasimovic9665]

Thank you doctor on your generous information, your chanel is such a treasure. As you mentioned there is no Avene RetinAL available in Europe, but we have Ystheal line by Avene available contianing retinaldehyde, would you recommend it?

[@denisakluzova970]

We also have a new A-oxitive line 💕 Night peeling cream has 0.1% retinaldehyde

[@letoutube]

Avene equivalents I've found by comparing ingredients: - RetrinAL Advanced Wrinkle Corrector (15ml) = Physiolift Precision (in the EU) - RetrinAL 0.1 Intensive cream (30ml) = A-Oxitive Night Peeling Cream All Skin (in the EU) - RetrinAL 0.05 Cream (30ml) = YstheAL antiwrinkle cream (in the EU) is VERY close

[@kitkaty3587]

Once again a very informative video! I was wondering if you could do a video on tips for soaking in the bath? Or epsom salt studies? I know soaking in hot water is probably not the best for my skin but I love doing it for soar muscles from the gym , relaxation and self care purposes. I lather on the cerave right after but just curious if there is anything else I can do while I’m the tub. Hope you have a great week ♥️

Hi Dr Dray, love your channel! So informative! You might have mentioned this somewhere but I can’t find it.... but can you comment about benzoyl peroxide and it’s effectiveness in preventing wrinkles? I don’t have acne and I want to use retin a however I can’t find it where I live... I can only find benzoyl peroxide. Is it as good? How does it compare? Thank you!!

[@avam6662]

Love this informative video! Could you do one about growth serums like Skin medica TNS and neocutis?? Thank you Dr Dray!

[@DrDrayzday]

i talked about growth factors in my peptides video

[@Avielalex]

Another fantastic video! I have a question though, regarding the application of retinaldehyde containing products - Is there an issue with them losing efficacy due to vigorous smearing onto the face? I am aware of retinoids being not so stable however, I came across several videos from Avene instructing on applying their ystheal etrinal by barely touching the face which seemed like legerdemain.

[@sofianujnoi7650]

Dr Dray, I love your videos. I would love to hear some retinoid products that I could find in the UK. Almost everything is impossible to get over the counter. thank you so much in advance!

[@ngochois]

Skin Script makes a retinaldehyde serum that comes in an airless pump bottle. Their webpage notes that they use: IconicA (Retinal/Retinaldehyde) 2.5% converted into 0.1% Retinaldehyde.
