Frequently Asked Questions
What skin types can use Intensive AlphaRet® Overnight Cream?
This advanced formula is designed to be effective for photodamaged, aging, or uneven skin tones that require resurfacing. Generally, Intensive AlphaRet® Overnight Cream is suitable for most skin types, except for those with very sensitive or reactive skin. If you have a history of rosacea or extreme sensitivity, we recommend a consultation to determine if this potency is right for your specific barrier needs.
How often should I use this cream?
Consistency is vital for skin renewal, but patience is required during the introduction phase to prevent irritation. Apply the cream nightly as tolerated. To avoid overwhelming your skin, begin every other night and increase frequency as your skin adjusts to the potent active ingredients. This gradual approach allows your skin to build tolerance, ensuring you receive maximum benefits without compromising comfort.
Will this product cause peeling or redness?
Some patients may notice slight changes in their skin condition as cell turnover accelerates. Mild dryness or flaking may occur during the adjustment period after applying the product, but AlphaRet® technology helps minimize irritation compared to traditional retinoids. This unique delivery system ensures you receive the powerful, rejuvenating effects of a retinoid with significantly improved comfort and less social downtime.
Can I use this with other skincare products?
To maintain a healthy moisture barrier while using active resurfacing agents, hydration is essential. It pairs well with hydrating serums and medical-grade moisturizers such as HA⁵® Hydra Collagen Replenish + Restore Hydrator. Using these complementary products can help lock in moisture and soothe the skin, amplifying your overall anti-aging results while preventing dryness.
When will I see results?
While skin turnover takes time, visible changes often appear relatively quickly as the surface layer renews. Many patients notice a smoother texture and a healthy glow within the first 4 weeks after applying the product, with continued improvement over 8 to 12 weeks. Long-term use will further diminish the appearance of fine lines and deep-set wrinkles as collagen support increases over time.
Can this be used with professional treatments?
Medical-grade skincare often acts as the perfect partner to clinical procedures to maximize your investment. Your provider may recommend integrating AlphaRet® with in-office treatments, such as chemical peels or microneedling, to enhance results. Preconditioning the skin can improve procedure outcomes, while post-procedure maintenance helps prolong your rejuvenated look once the skin has healed.
