It is intended as educational skincare support for people researching or already using a high-strength routine. Dermaglow does not prescribe or sell prescription medicines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eIs 0.1% tretinoin better than 0.05% or 0.025%?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuick answer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not automatically. A higher concentration can increase irritation and should not be treated as a target everyone needs to reach. The appropriate prescription concentration depends on the individual, the reason for treatment and professional advice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWho should consider a 0.1% skincare routine?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eDermaglow positions this as its Intensive routine because 0.1% is the highest of the three concentrations around which our skincare plans are organised. A change to a high-strength prescription treatment should be discussed with a qualified prescriber rather than made from general online information.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompare the \u003ca href=\"\/fr-be\/products\/starter-retinoid-skin-plan-routine-0-025-protocol\"\u003e0.025% Starter Protocol\u003c\/a\u003e and \u003ca href=\"\/fr-be\/products\/advanced-retinoid-skin-plan-routine-0-05-protocol\"\u003e0.05% Advanced Protocol\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat should a high-strength retinoid routine include?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeep the supporting routine conservative: gentle cleansing, moisturiser and daily broad-spectrum SPF. Higher strength does not justify more exfoliation or more active ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow can I reduce irritation?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollow the directions supplied with your prescription, support the skin barrier with moisturiser and avoid escalating several products at once. If irritation becomes persistent or severe, stop and seek professional advice rather than trying to push through it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eCan I combine other active ingredients with a 0.1% routine?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003ePotentially irritating combinations deserve particular caution at higher strength. Exfoliating acids, benzoyl peroxide and other actives may need different timing or may not be suitable for your routine. Ask a pharmacist, GP, dermatologist or prescriber when combining actives with prescription treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDoes stronger tretinoin work faster?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eHigher concentration is not a shortcut to good long-term results. Consistency and tolerability matter.
