Title: Will I get results (stretch marks) without using Retin A?
Post by: team90 on June 07, 2012, 11:08:08 PM

Hi Sarah, I really want to buy retin a from your site but Canada might confiscate it. Is there any other way I can get retin a?

If I CANNOT get retin a, will I see results with only dermarolling+single needling and using vit C + infadolen on my white stretch marks? Does retin a really make a huge difference?

I'm not sure it does.  Better to follow Sarah's advice though.

Good luck (I too am treating white stretch marks)

I live in Canada and I use Retin-A Micro, which is considered an acne prescription that you can only get from a doctor.  I use it for my face though.  Try asking your doctor or pharmacist.  I think there are also some websites that you can order from legally and locally.

There's no way I can get retin a from my doctor since I don't have any acne nor do I need it for aging. I checked out some "online" drugstores but you need a dr's prescription. :(

I guess I'll have to do without it.

You can ask your doctor or a dermatologist for a prescription. Tell him you want it for wrinkles.

Alternatively, order our 0.025% Tretinoin cream for 17 dollars. It is a small jar (18 grams) and it will most likely not be checked and confiscated.

Dermarolling/needling improves stretch marks even without Tretinoin cream.

The cream is added to possibly further enhance the chance of improvement.
