| Beginning a new retinol routine can be irritating or drying to some skin types. To alleviate the possibility of temporary discomfort, we recommend applying our retinol product using a pulse treatment schedule. The Micropulse schedule is how you will apply the product on a daily/weekly basis, and the Macropulse schedule is how you will apply the product over a period of months.
Micropulse:
Pulse A: - Weeks 1-2: Apply every 2-3 nights.
Pulse B: - Weeks 3-4: Apply every other night.
Pulse C: - Week 5+ : Apply every night if able to tolerate. If skin becomes dry, sensitive, or begins to peel excessively, revert back to Pulse A, and begin entire micropulse treatment schedule again.
Macropulse:
Cycle A: Apply for 6 months using micropulse treatment schedule.
Cycle B:Cease treatment entirely for a period of 3 months (90 days). Then begin treatment again, using Macropulse Cycle A.
