I'm 23 and I've been using Yugard anti-aging cream for a couple of months because a doctor recommended it to me. I'm a bit worried about any potential side effects at my age. Should I be concerned?

Yugard anti-aging cream contains Tretinoin which may cause skin irritation, redness, dryness, and peeling especially when starting its use. It is important to use a sunscreen during the day while using this cream. The recommended dosage for Yugard cream is to apply a pea-sized amount on the affected area at night before bedtime.
