Does using retin A on the eye area ( lower and upper eyelids ) have detrimental effects? such as reducing fat in the area?

thanks dude - what do you mean by migrate? i have two wrinkles im trying to get rid off in lower eyelidSo my advice would be: don't use tretinoin around there- its going to migrate slightly anyways after application so even if you just go to the orbital bone, you'll likely see some difference. However, if you're going to do it- be prepared for the peeling and don't put it too close to your eye (keep the migration in mind).
So (pretty much) any time you put a topical on your skin, the heat from your body will cause it to spread out a little bit further than where you originally put it, especially topicals that have an emollient base like tretinoin. For some reason (that is probably incredibly obvious and I'm just not thinking clearly), the eye area seems to be particularly prone to this type of spreading out of product.thanks dude - what do you mean by migrate? i have two wrinkles im trying to get rid off in lower eyelid

Edit to add: under eye wrinkles are particularly difficult to get rid of, if you didnt want to deal with the harshness of tretinoin around your eyes, there are specific eye creams that contain retinol which might help.
Other retinoids are never going to be as effective as quickly as tretinoin. But they will absolutely work, often with less irritation. I've got a bit of an explanation in the guide that I wrote on how retinoids work and are related to each other if you wanted to know more.thanks dude - do they have the same effect as retin a though?
i cant find the guide dude- can you link it please? thanks!Other retinoids are never going to be as effective as quickly as tretinoin. But they will absolutely work, often with less irritation.

why not?why the fuck would you use retina on upper eyelid
Have You noticed any difference after using it?I use a shit ton of it all around my eyes everyday. Nothing bad has happened to my eyes yet lol
Is this for real
pretty sure it doesn't do anything if little bit gets in the eyes, eye drops after eye surgery also use vitamin aIt indeed does son.
For a fact it is most effective if you use it directly as eyedrops.
Yeah those are (AFAIK) retinyl palmitate, not tretinoin and also are formulated for the eye- massive difference.pretty sure it doesn't do anything if little bit gets in the eyes, eye drops after eye surgery also use vitamin a
