What's happened to Retinol

MagiWyn · 07-01-2007, 05:38 PM

Hi everyone. I am a new member of Plasmetic.com. Came across the site while desperately looking for miracle cures for wrinkles that have, until now, stayed at bay, now they all seem to be appearing at once. I have been using Retinol cream, prescribed by my doctor, for about 3 years, although I must admit I kept forgetting to use it. Now, when I really need it, it has been discontinued. Does any of you ladies know the reason why? I have searched the internet but cannot find anything. I'm wondering if this product has disappeared for ever, or will it come back on the market. I have another problem, and that is brown sun spots. Can any one recommend a product or treatment apart from Retinol> Many thanks, Mags

Not sure...we have no problem still getting it here.
Maybe you could order it over the internet.
Good Luck.

Thanks for your response Jan. I have tried a couple of American sites, but no luck. Maybe, if youknow of a company I could try you would let me know?

Retin A is only dispensed by a doctor's RX here in the u.s. You can buy it over the counter in Mexico. Have you tried Boots 7 line of skin care? Supposed to be very good for wrinkles and it's made right in the UK!
You could also try the Obagi line of skin care. They are very good and should be able to find them on the internet. Good luck to you.
