ReFissa Description

A broad skin care program that includes avoiding direct sunlight and moisturizing facial creams will go a long way once women reach their “mature” years. ReFissa can help to improve your skin’s appearance as your body starts to slow down the production of hyaluronic acid and collagen that once kept the skin plump and hydrated.

Regain a Smoother, Brighter Complexion

ReFissa contains Tretinoin, a form of vitamin A that helps the skin renew itself. ReFissa is a prescription retinoid medicine that works by speeding up the growth of your outer layer of skin in order to produce new skin cells. Besides increasing the cell/skin turnover rate, ReFissa boosts collagen synthesis which helps with smoothing the look of your skin.

ReFissa is not an overnight miracle cream that banishes wrinkles and sun-damaged skin with a single application. ReFissa works slowly but surely to restore an even pigmentation to your face and improve the appearance of fine lines. The full effects of ReFissa will be noticeable at around six months of continued use and then can be applied as a maintenance cream to keep the desired look.

Risks Factors for Aged Looking Skin

Your skin changes as you age. You might notice wrinkles, age spots and dryness. Your skin also becomes thinner and loses fat, making it less plump and smooth. It might take longer to heal, too. How your skin ages will depend on a variety of factors that include: your lifestyle, diet, heredity, and other personal habits.

Sunlight is a major cause of skin aging. Over time, the sun's ultraviolet (UV) light damages certain fibers in the skin called elastin, causing the skin to sag, stretch, and lose its ability to snap back after stretching. You can protect yourself by staying out of the sun when it is strongest, using sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or higher, wearing protective clothing, and avoiding sunlamps and tanning beds.

Cigarette smoking also affects the health of your skin. Smoking can produce free radicals that damage cells, leading to premature wrinkles. The wrinkling increases with the amount of cigarettes and number of years a person has smoked.

Before ReFissa is Applied

There is little, if any, ingredients of ReFissa that will reach your bloodstream as it is absorbed into your skin cells. However, to be on the safe side, do not apply any Tretinoin Topical products if you are pregnant, trying to conceive, or are breast feeding. You should not use skin products that contain benzoyl peroxide, sulfur, resorcinol, or salicylic acid unless otherwise directed by your doctor as these products can cause severe skin irritation if used with ReFissa.
