AlphaRet Overnight Cream

AlphaRet Overnight Cream is a cosmetic skincare product developed by skinbetter science that utilizes a patented technology to combine a retinoid with an alpha hydroxy acid (specifically lactic acid). Introduced in 2016, the formulation is designed to address visible signs of skin aging, including photodamage, fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone and texture. The product works through a dual mechanism where the retinoid component increases skin cell turnover by activating retinoic acid receptors, while the lactic acid promotes exfoliation of the skin's surface. This combination is intended to provide the efficacy of traditional retinoids with significantly reduced irritation. Clinical evaluations in patients have demonstrated significant improvements in wrinkle appearance within four weeks of overnight topical application.
