Can you use 0.1% tretnoin cream on undereye wrinkles or will it just irritate the fuck out of my undereyes like it did with my vitamin c serum?

Retinoids can be irritating which is why u should start with weaker formulations, start with the 0.05% tretinoin cream. If irritation is tolerable and improvement is needed, u can even progress to 0.1% tazarotene gel.

However, it’s important to know that while retinoids can boost collagen synthesis, it probably wont be enough to clear wrinkles caused by low tissue volume (fat or bone). A more permanent solution in such cases is likely to be fat grafting

prob just irritate, but it depends on how sensitive your skin is. You could try at a weaker concentration.

I just applied a thin layer of 0.1% on my under eye area and surprisingly did not irritate. I will check back in a week or so after doing consistently. I will probably make a thread about this.
