For the same reason people inject fillers to get rid of nasolabial folds, same reason bloated people don't have nasolabial folds very often. The fat fills the laughline

Proof retin is bad for nasolabial folds? I see all kinds of website recommending retin to cure/prevent nasolabial folds as it helps with collagen.

See: https://www.revivalabs.com/can-you-...ptive Retin-A or over,fix, night-out solution.
Topical solutions (for nasolabial folds)
Retinoids, peptides, and silicones have all proven effective to varying degrees. Prescriptive Retin-A or over-the-counter retinoids can help to prevent the loss of collagen over time.

Ofcourse fillers are recommend for deep folds, but retin is supposed to reduce fine lines.

Any proof that retin fat loss is in any way significant and causes nas folds?

Burning fat in nasolabial folds make the folds less prominent if anything lol

>nasolabial folds are solved by fat graft, fillers and bloating.
Maybe taking out fat will cause it? But I'm gonna do an experiment, I'm gonna use retin a on only one side of my laugh lines. 3 months later we will see, this is going to be interesting

Looking back at some research on tretin:

After 84 days of treatment with tretinoin 0.025%, a statistically significant improvement was observed for nasolabial fold (2.4 ± 0.9 vs . 2.8 ± 0.7), supralabial wrinkles (1.1 ± 0.8 vs . 1.5 ± 0.9), pores (2.0 ± 1.6 vs . 3.2 ± 1.7), and pigmentation (1.6 ± 1.0 vs . 2.3 ± 1.2) (all P ≤ 0.05).

Idk im gonna keep using it in any case for now.

that's counter intuitive tbqh, and right now it's giving me nasolabial folds. I'm gonna use in just one side and see what happens
 
temporarily thins skin before it thickens it. it is known everywhere that it makes u look like shit before it improves you. if anything it would get rid of them over time. shit thread tbh

Retin=More collagen=less folds. It's not counter-intuitive.

Idk about the fat loss part though, but I find it hard to find any studies on it

its counter intuitive to me because people inject fat to get rid of it, I don't know any studies but it's well known that it get rids of hooded eyes which are caused by fat deposits

i'll use it on my stomach instead
 
Retin A burns fat is a cope. The extent to which it does is do minimal, it’s hardly noticable. That said, I don’t run the risk and avoid putting it near my eyes
 
Ur supposed to have hooding by bone anyway, not by fat

you know it ‘leaks’ a few inches so that even if you are putting away from your eyes it will still reach it

idk i think it looks more aesthetic with fat ? i might be wrong tho

So how to apply it ideally?

i would just put it under eyes and take the temporary thinning side effect, over time the skin with thicken and the area will improve in looks. retin a doesn’t burn fat like retards on this forum claim
 
My nasolabial folds got more prominent on Retin-A.

I guess it burned through the superificial layer of fat, to reveal the deepest, malar fat pads; so my folds became more visible by losing that fat

mine too but it's getting better now
 
This is like that guy who was using RU and suddenly hes dying because RU killed his heart and he makes a goodbye letter to the world, etc.
Bullshit. Pictures or it didn't happen.
 
So then where should you apply it? Only on forehead, chin, and cheeks?

I've been alternating 0.1% adapalene gel with retin a for months and haven't seen an increase in nasolabial folds, or any fat loss for that matter. Are you sure it's not all in your head? I'm 100% sure people who have used retin a for 15+ years applied it to their laugh lines/mouth area, they don't seem to have a problem.

look at her - her nasolabial folds look the same, if not better. I know she's not smiling as wide in the after photo but you can put 2+2 together, it's clear there was no negative change. On the other hand, look at her eye area. She probably smothered retin a all over her eyes, and that caused fat loss. skin around you eyes is upt to 10x as thin as the rest of the skin on your face, avoid your eye area when applying retin a (water).
