Hi Michael, Sorry, I've only just noticed your question, I'm usually much more 'on the ball' than this, my apologies for the delay in replying. The product that would be most suitable to lift age spots on the skin would be our Little Wing Beauty Vitamin C Serum. Vitamin C serum has been recommended by Dr Oz for help in lifting age spots on the skin and our product does come in a 1oz bottle so you should see some results before the product has been used up.Please let me know if you need further information on any of our anti-aging products. Best wishes, Shirley Dalgetty, CEO, Little Wing Beauty

I am almost 63 years old.....I have no wrinkles.....I use the Active C on my face and they used to produce a retinol product I loved too....this a wonderful product and I use this every night....you will see a difference in the texture and brightness of your skin within a week. You do not need to use a great deal. People do not talk about how great Vitamin C is on your skin.

Any Retinol product is going to make you peel one way or another. Some have a regular problem with peeling so I would use a 2% product, I have had very little peeling with any Retinol product.

If youre getting prescription strength RETIN A, I would ask your dermatologist and I would be doubly sure to wear a lot of sunscreen. But you could also go to the PTR website and ask them. But remember Amazon is not an authorized retailer of PTR. But I do know PTR sells a retinol product. If you go to QVC, youll see he has a 6 piece kit that includes these pads. The pads usually sell for $45 and the QVC kit with 5 other products is only $44 and QVC has a 30 day guarantee so you can always send it back if youre not satisfied.

This does have vitamin E in it. It works well to continually resurface your skin for radiance without a harsh effect, as well as, many vitamins for nourishment to rebuild. I also like this as a daily light cream, but I also use an intense (night-time) vitamin A, which is also called Retinol, which loads the skin with the base it needs to redefine wrinkles. But know that these products do still take time to show results.

Yes it will clear the spots, you will notice some drying, but nothing a light moisturizer can help with. This stuff it the bomb! My friend who is 43 years old but has redness and adult acne who is of Russian decent uses it and he no longer has the redness maybe an occasional pimple but nothing serious. Try it it's cheap and I do not make money off this, nor am I related to the person selling it. Just remember to leave it on for 3-5 minutes, in the beginning it will sting, and your skin may get irritated, just keep using it, it's a sign that it is working.

I've asked the same thing and searched and searched. I do really like the product though and suspect it has retinol in its ingredients.

I don't know, but retinol or vitamin C applied topically can help reduce or eliminate redness or brown pigment due to irritation or age spots. I use Paula's Choice retinol & vitamin C, as well as her other skin care products from her line. The AmLactin is one of the very few products that contains enough AHA to get rid of the scaling that goes along with ichthyosis vulgaris, which I've had since birth.

I find it to help, but I am in my early 40's so not a lot of briwn spots, but my mother used the product, in her late 60's, and didn't really notice it helping w/ discoloration.

I don't know the percentage of retinol, but I can tell you that this is a gentle cream that leaves your skin very soft and smooth to the touch. It does not cause my skin to peel or feel tight like it would if it were high in retinol. I am over 65 and my skin is much thinner than it was in my younger years and I am more sensitive to the retinol. I also have used this same cream in the version that is not for sensitive skin and this one has a better result. If you are looking for a cream that leaves you skin feeling soft and silky, this is a great product.

I don't have age spots, however, I am experiencing improvements in my skin's overall appearance. My skin is smoother and more clear. One of my friends recently asked me what am I using.

Absolutely...I do all the time. My dermatologist gave me retin A which is even a little stronger then just your basic retinol cream. I will often use that in addition a few times a week. I also just wanted to add that during this recent very cold weather that we've had I tend to only use the skin pigment gel in addition to a nightly moisturizer that doesn't contain significant retinol amounts. This very cold weather then the heat indoors causes my skin to be very dry already. You will know based on your own skin type how often you prefer to use both the pigment gel and the retinol cream at night. Absolutely...I do all the time.

I am unsure of the retinol percentage. I am an avid user of this product, unfortunately I can't afford it right now, so I am currently taking a break. As soon as I can, I will be restocking it. I have acne (cystic/hormonal)prone skin, I have seen a pleasant difference in my skin tone, acne, and wrinkles very shortly after starting this product. I miss it- my face misses it!

I do not believe this product is age specific. If you feel your skin needs rejuvenating then this is a very great product.

It's a great product and can be used w/ the ageless intensive moistuizer, but beware, it is strong and does what Retinol is supposed to do & that is resurface your skin.In the process it may burn your face a bit, so use sparingly.

I did not mention the percentage of retinol in my comment. I understood that over the counter retinol products cannot contain more than 5%.

My son has Acne and I have used it for my face and it was amazing but I would search online to see what works best for your dark spots bc not sure if this would be the route but you can check with the ones that sell this product they might be able to help best bc I never used it on my aging spots.
