If you are not seeing a doctor you can buy it on the internet.
Just do a search for Retin A and it will show you on line pharamacys you can get by just filling out some of your health status and a doctor /pharmics on the other end will ok it.
You can onl buy the cream or the micro gell since the liquied has been discontuied
You use it in thinning areas, same as minoxidil. But be careful, it is an acid and can cause irritation. You may have to start slowly and see how you do. It can really make a difference so it is worth the effort.
I use retin A on my face for some acne, and allways thought by doing that alone was making the minoxidil asorb faster or do I need to apply it to my scalp with the minoxidil.
I do however apply it to my temples cause there is no hair there and rub the minoxidil into it..
get it at minoxidil.com. YOu have to print a form and mail it in for a "prescription". Add a little to your minoxidil. It says not to do that, but it really doesn't matter if you only use a little. Or maybe it is after a shower you are not supposed to do that. I'll put some on my face too when I get off my but and print that form. it makes once daily minoxidil as effective as twice daily.
