Our medical-grade IV vitamin therapy delivers essential nutrients directly into your bloodstream for:
As the sunny days fade and cooler weather sets in, fall and winter are the perfect times to introduce (or reintroduce) retinol into your skincare routine. Why? Retinol makes your skin more sensitive to sunlight, so using it during months with less sun exposure helps you maximize its benefits while minimizing risks.
When Should You Use Retinol?
- Start in the fall and continue through winter for optimal results.
- Apply it at night to allow your skin to repair and rejuvenate while you sleep.
- Always pair it with a high-quality SPF during the day to protect your skin.
What to Look for in a Retinol Product:
- Medical-grade formulations for better efficacy and safety
- The right concentration for your skin type and goals (start low if you’re new to retinol!)
- Products with added soothing ingredients to minimize irritation
Our Favourite Retinol Products
◆ ZO Skin Health - Wrinkle and Texture 0.5% - A high-potency retinol, which will cause a reaction when first used. The results, though, are amazing! This is a great product for patients with advanced signs of aging or pigment.
◆ Vivier - Retinol 1% - A slow-release retinol that aims to be more gentle on the skin. Includes Squaline to hydrate and soothe, as well as Vitamin E and C to strengthen the skin barrier.
◆ ZO Skin Health - Skin Brightener (0.25%, 0.5% or 1%) - Promotes exfoliation to eliminate uneven skin tone. Delivers targeted and controlled release of retinol for maximum brightening effects.
