Obagi Tretinoin 0.025% Cream
Prescription-Strength Retinoid for Early Signs of Aging and Mild to Moderate Acne
Obagi Tretinoin 0.025% Cream is a dermatologist-trusted topical retinoid formulated to treat early skin aging, mild acne, and uneven skin tone. With a lower concentration of prescription-grade tretinoin, this gentle cream accelerates cell turnover, improves skin clarity, and minimizes the appearance of fine lines—making it an ideal introduction to retinoid therapy. Its lightweight texture absorbs easily, helping restore radiance and smoothness to tired, blemish-prone skin.
Available by prescription only. Medical Assessment required.
