Retinol, Prescription Vitamin A – TRIGGER ALERT
We need to talk about something that’s been normalized in the skincare industry for far too long: the use of retinol and prescription Vitamin A (retinoic acid).
What if I told you these commonly prescribed ingredients—often praised as the gold standard of anti-aging—are actually causing long-term damage to your skin?
Let’s get into the truth.
Research is revealing what many of us have suspected for years: the only form of Vitamin A that truly supports the skin’s integrity without causing harm is Retinaldehyde.
The Hidden Damage of Conventional Retinoids
Here’s what’s not often shared in mainstream skincare conversations:
All other forms of retinoids—including over-the-counter retinol and prescription retinoic acid—oxidize in the skin over a 48-hour period.
This oxidation process contributes to DNA damage, which accelerates aging rather than reversing it.
Retinoic acid, while potent, is harsh on the skin. Studies have shown it can thin the dermis by up to 18% per year—a devastating outcome for those seeking long-term skin resilience.
It creates the illusion of improvement through inflammation and swelling, rather than actual dermal repair.
So, What Makes Retinaldehyde So Different?
Retinaldehyde is the pre-cursor to retinoic acid, which means your body intelligently converts it when and where it’s needed, without overwhelming the skin. It offers true cellular communication and rejuvenation, minus the irritation.
Here’s why Retinaldehyde is the superior choice:
- Non-irritating
- DNA-safe
- No photo-toxicity (when used in normal doses)
- Protects against UVA & UVB damage
- Builds true dermal collagen—not puffiness or false plumpness
- Technology Meets Skin Respect
At Osmosis Pur Medical, the innovation doesn’t stop at ingredient choice. Their Vitamin A formulas use:
Phosphatidylcholine – A powerful, skin-loving delivery system that transports Retinaldehyde deep into the dermis for profound, targeted results.
Boost Activator Mist – A brilliant enhancement mist that supercharges absorption and amplifies the performance of your serum.
This duo delivers results where they count: beneath the surface, in the dermis, where true transformation happens.
