Got age spots, heard Retinol or similar gets rid. Has anyone used it ? Where do I get it? What precautions do I need to take? Cheers x

I have sensitive skin too Stropperalla and personally I wouldn't touch it. I'm not denying its effectiveness if you can tolerate it - one of the very few anti ageing products that does actually work. But it's prescription only for a reason.

If it's giving you boils, I'd stop ASAP.

My current hairdresser had laser treatment on her age spots and they're now gone.

I've developed thread veins on my nose and cheeks since starting all this acid toning / retinol. Could just be coincidence of course but I had my first laser treatment last week to try and combat it all.

Another update -Day 17 and everything is calming down nicely. Spots have dried out with no new arrivals for now.
