Isotretinoin（Cat No.:A000584）is a powerful retinoid used primarily to treat severe acne, particularly cases unresponsive to other treatments. It works by reducing sebum production, shrinking sebaceous glands, and limiting acne-causing bacteria, effectively minimizing inflammation and promoting clearer skin. Additionally, isotretinoin supports skin regeneration and is studied for its potential in managing various dermatological conditions beyond acne. Due to its potent effects, it’s often prescribed under strict medical supervision, particularly in cases involving long-term skin conditions, making it a crucial option for dermatological therapy and research.
