| Is Retin-A worth getting for its anti-wrinkle properties? Is stuff like Relaxaline and cellex-c better than it? |

Hi Lily and welcome to the forum,
In January of this year I began using the Obagi system complete with Retin A micro. I have seen a dramatic improvement in my skin and fine wrinkles seem to have vanished.
I think the retin A micro along with the Vit C serums are the two things that gave me the best results.
Good luck with whatever you decide I think for most of us it is trial and error.

Hi Lily and some,
I am 38 and used retin a micro which is prescription. I use Vivier vit C serum and between that retin a and Obagi I no longer have any discolorations left from acne. It also got rid of sun damage and melasma that I had from being in the sun and being on the pill.

Hi some,
Your post showed twice but here goes anyway. I used Vivier vitamin c 20% serum. I think it was a combination of Obagi with retin a micro that make such an improvement in my skin.

Thanks for your post. Have you tried the Vivier TMR (topical muscle relaxant)? Have you heard anything about it? |

Hi some,
Obagi should only be used under the care of a dermatologist. You would need to consult with one so they could provide the best obagi products for you. I didn't use some products that maybe they would prescribe for you and vice versa.
No lily I haven't tried it yet but have looked at it a few times and wondered if it is good.
