Do retinoids work for wrinkles?

I'm wondering if retinoids work.

I've never tried them, but I believe lots of people use them to reduce wrinkles, so I'm curious.

What are people's thoughts? Do they work?

P.s. I also think think people should grow old gracefully and that wrinkles are not a bad thing.

I'm just curious!

Yes it does hence it's popularity

There is a lot of evidence to show they work on fine lines but they can’t get rid of deep lines.

They work to increase skin cell turnover, which will in turn make you look younger, however it also leaves you more susceptible to sun damage. If you have deep lines it probably won't get rid of them, but it will stop them from getting worse.

There is lots of evidence behind retinoids so it works for a lot of people but not a miracle
