Introducing Prequel's NEW Retinal Renew Retinaldehyde Gel 0.1% & 0.2% | Dr. Sam Ellis

We’re thrilled to introduce Retinal Renew: It’s an advanced retinaldehyde gel that’s powerful enough to deliver the true benefits of retinal, gentle enough to use consistently, and texturally exceptional. Formulated with a highly stabilized retinaldehyde to visibly reduce fine lines and wrinkles, smooth texture, firm, and even tone. Skin-soothing ectoin and bioactive cica work together to refine skin texture and deliver optimal results with minimal irritation. Studies show that both retinol and retinaldehyde (retinal for short) are less irritating than prescription retinoids. But there’s a catch: Both need to convert to retinoic acid when applied—this is the active form of the compound your skin can make use of. That’s why retinal has an advantage: It only needs to undergo one conversion step within the skin to become retinoic acid, while retinol needs to undergo two conversion steps. This single-step conversion makes retinal more efficient and potent than retinol.
