Why is it important to wear SPF while using a prescription treatment?

Ingredients like Tretinoin make skin more sun sensitive, therefore it is recommended to use sunscreen everyday as the final step in your skincare routine and before applying makeup. Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen of at least SPF30 that protects against UVA and UVB rays.

Studies have shown that using sunscreen significantly improves skin health by protecting it from the sun’s damaging UV rays and reducing the risk of developing skin cancer. Other benefits include, slowing down the ageing process and reducing hyperpigmentation problems.
