Thank you, I did not know about retinoids. I have added this to my reading queue. It seems that prolonged usage can have undesirable side effects, but proper dosage is effective in treating a variety of skin conditions. In the case of reducing skin wrinkles, I wonder if that is purely cosmetic, or if it actually makes the skin healthier in some way?

I wish there was consumer technology to effectively monitor ones own blood work. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retinoid#Toxicity https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retinoid#Toxicity
