Description
Skin-A Cream — Tretinoin 0.05% for Acne Treatment
Skin-A Cream by Atco Pharma is a prescription-strength Tretinoin USP 0.05% cream clinically proven for the treatment of acne vulgaris. Tretinoin — a Vitamin A derivative — works by accelerating skin cell turnover, preventing the clogging of follicles, reducing comedones, and promoting the clearance of pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads. With consistent use, it helps reveal smoother, clearer skin. Prescription required.
Skin-A Cream is suitable for oily and acne-prone skin. It should be used at night only, with daily broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen during the day. Avoid contact with eyes, lips, and mucous membranes. Start with alternate-night application to minimise initial dryness or irritation.

How To Use
As directed by your dermatologist. Apply a pea-sized amount of Skin-A Cream to clean, dry skin on affected areas at night. To minimise initial dryness or peeling, start by applying every other night and gradually increase to nightly use as your skin adjusts. Avoid contact with eyes, lips, and mucous membranes. Always apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen during the day — Tretinoin increases sun sensitivity. Do not use on broken, eczematous, or severely irritated skin.
FAQs
Do I need a prescription for Skin-A Cream?
Yes. Skin-A Cream contains Tretinoin 0.05%, a prescription-only retinoid in Pakistan. Consult a dermatologist before use.
How long does Skin-A Cream take to work?
Most patients see noticeable improvement in 6–8 weeks. Full results may take 3–6 months of consistent use.
Can I use Skin-A Cream during the day?
No. Tretinoin degrades with UV exposure and increases sun sensitivity. Apply at night only, and use SPF 30+ sunscreen every morning.
Is skin purging normal when starting Skin-A Cream?
Yes. A temporary increase in breakouts (purging) in the first 2–4 weeks is common as skin cell turnover accelerates. This usually subsides as the skin adjusts.

No. Tretinoin is contraindicated during pregnancy. Consult your doctor for safe alternatives.
