Do I need a Retinol product in my skincare regimen?
Retinol helps to normalise skin by balancing epithelial turnover and is effective in addressing most of the signs of visible ageing. Although Retinol was originally marketed in the 1940s as an acne treatment, updated research in the 1980s revealed that retinoic acid and later Retinol also minimises the look of fine lines and wrinkles, dark spots, and other signs of photoaging. The Clinical Studies performed by an independent facility on our Retinol products showed improvements in:
- The appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- Skin texture
- Pore size
- Post-acne scarring
- Skin tone and pigmentary irregularities
- Luminosity
- Elasticity

What broad qualities make the Retinol+ Emulsions different?
iS Clinical always uses the best quality ingredients available formulated using the most advanced science and manufactured in our own facility for quality control.
Why is iS Clinical launching a Retinol product now?
Products containing Retinol have been available for decades. However, side effects of redness, flaking,
and irritation are commonly associated with these products. iS Clinical patiently awaited the maturation of ingredients and the advancement of scientific formulation, striving for the opportune moment when we could craft an advanced and potent Retinol product. Our goal was to create a solution that optimises benefits while minimising potential side effects.
What is the importance of using sunscreen with a Retinol product?
Using SPF with our Retinol+ Emulsion products is essential due to the increased skin sensitivity caused by Retinol. Retinol, a potent derivative of Vitamin A, encourages skin cell turnover, making the skin more vulnerable to sun damage. Sunscreen provides a protective barrier against harmful UV rays, reducing the risk of sunburn, premature ageing, and potential long-term skin damage. Combining Retinol with SPF ensures a comprehensive approach to skin health and helps maintain the positive effects of Retinol while safeguarding your skin from environmental stressors.
How should Retinol+ Emulsion be used in a skincare regimen?
Retinol+ Emulsions represent an advanced and targeted solution, formulated to enhance the outcomes of your skincare routine. This exceptional product is particularly beneficial for individuals concerned with signs of aging, blemishes, and hyperpigmentation. To fully capitalize on the advantages of Retinol+ Emulsions, it is vital to follow the comprehensive iS Clinical regimen, encompassing the 4 Steps to Great Skin: CLEANSE, TREAT, HYDRATE, PROTECT.
To maximize efficacy, it is essential for the skin to acclimate to regular exfoliation and proper hydration. Furthermore, daily application of sunscreen is imperative to shield the skin from harmful UV rays. In instances where skin sensitivity is a concern, it is advisable to continue using Pro-Heal Serum Advance+ and/or Poly- Vitamin Serum as alternatives to Retinol+ Emulsions. These options cater to sensitive skin while providing nourishment and desired benefits. Adhering to these guidelines will help achieve optimal results and maintain skin health.
It is always best to consult with a skincare professional regarding your unique skin needs and concerns to design a proper regimen.
