Key Prescription Ingredients for Wrinkles
-

Tretinoin
Boosts collagen, evens skin tone, and smooths fine lines. Backed by decades of research as the most proven treatment for photoaging.
-

Adapalene
Improves texture and fights signs of aging with less irritation than tretinoin. Supported by strong clinical evidence for sensitive skin use.
-

Azelaic Acid
Smooths texture, fades pigmentation, and calms redness. Well-studied as a safe, versatile partner to retinoids for comprehensive care.
The SkinScripted Support Difference

But what is a wrinkle, really
Wrinkles aren’t flaws — they’re structural changes in skin over time. As collagen and elastin naturally decline, skin gets thinner and less springy. Daily expressions (smiling, frowning, squinting) then imprint lines more easily, and sun exposure can speed it up.
At The SkinScripted™, we don’t chase “perfection.” We use prescription medications to strengthen skin, support collagen renewal, and calm inflammation — helping your skin function at its healthiest.

What Medications will I be Prescribed
Based on your SmartForm™ answers, you will be prescribed:
Tretinoin 0.025%–0.1% — the most studied retinoid for fine lines and wrinkles. Increases cell turnover and stimulates collagen production.
Adapalene 0.3% — a gentler alternative retinoid, often used if your skin is sensitive but still benefits from retinoid therapy.
Niacinamide 5%–10% — improves barrier strength, smooths texture, and supports collagen renewal.
Azelaic Acid 15%–20% — reduces redness and brightens uneven tone often associated with photoaging.

How prescription retinoids work
Prescription retinoids like tretinoin and adapalene go deeper than over-the-counter creams — boosting turnover, collagen, and skin function.
Weeks 0–4: Mild dryness or flaking may happen — it’s temporary.
Weeks 4–8: Skin often looks brighter and feels smoother.
Weeks 8–12+: Deeper lines soften. Skin tone evens out.

FAQs
-
Yes — BUT, most over-the-counter products labeled “anti-aging” rely on cosmetic filler ingredients with little clinical backing. Prescription retinoids like tretinoin and adapalene are supported by decades of medical evidence for improving fine lines, texture, and cell turnover.
-
Some people experience mild dryness or flaking when starting retinoids — especially in the first 2–4 weeks. We guide you through a slow, stepwise ramp-up so your skin stays supported, not irritated. Think of it as training your skin — not punishing it.
-
Yes. Prescription skincare works well alongside injectables. Retinoids and pigment-correctors improve tone, texture, and cell health — which injections don’t touch. Many patients choose both for complementary results.
-
Not always — and definitely not for everyone.
That’s why we built the SkinScripted SmartForm™ to factor in your skin tone, age, sensitivity, and goals before choosing a starting dose. Stronger isn’t better if it leads to irritation, flaking, or dropout. We prioritize steady progressover harsh reactions.
Most prescription retinoids come in a range of strengths:
Adapalene: 0.1% or 0.3% — ideal for beginners or more sensitive skin
Tretinoin: 0.025%, 0.05%, or 0.1% — stronger and well studied for fine lines, texture, and sun damage
We’ll guide your starting point — and adjust over time. If your skin needs a slower ramp or rotation plan, we build that in from day one.
