Can I use this if I have sensitive eyes?

Yes, the AlphaRet technology is formulated for better tolerance than traditional retinoids. However, start with every other night and avoid getting product directly in the eyes.

When will I see results?

Most patients notice improved texture within 2-4 weeks, with continued improvement in fine lines and firmness over 8-12 weeks of consistent use.

Can I use this with other eye products?

Yes, but introduce slowly. Use this in the evening and apply other eye treatments in the morning, or alternate nights until your skin adapts.

Is this safe to use with lash extensions?

Yes, just be gentle during application and avoid getting product on the lashes themselves. The cream won't interfere with lash adhesive when applied to skin only.

About AlphaRet Restorative Eye Cream

AlphaRet Restorative Eye Cream combines the anti-aging benefits of a retinoid with an alpha hydroxy acid in a patented formulation specifically designed for the delicate eye area. This unique AlphaRet technology delivers improved tolerance while maintaining efficacy, making it suitable for the thin, sensitive skin around the eyes. The cream helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and crepiness while supporting skin renewal and hydration. Unlike traditional retinoids that can be too harsh for the eye area, this gentle formulation provides visible improvement in skin texture and firmness without irritation. The rich, nourishing base includes moisturizing ingredients to support the skin barrier and prevent dryness commonly associated with retinoid use.

How to Use

Apply a small amount to clean skin around the eye area in the evening only. Gently pat around the orbital bone, avoiding direct contact with the eyelid or waterline. Start with every other night for the first week, then gradually increase to nightly use as tolerated. Always follow with SPF during the day as retinoids increase photosensitivity.

Pro Tip from Our Clinicians

Start slowly with this powerful eye cream - your skin needs time to build tolerance to the AlphaRet technology. Pair with our SkinIQ analysis to ensure this is the right strength for your skin, and consider following with Morpheus8 treatments for enhanced collagen stimulation around the eyes.
