Skin in the older woman

[HOLEDIGGER]

I am 73yrs i am still experiencing an oily skin, unsure what to do about it - should i be thankful or try to dry it up?

[Dr Anton Alexandroff]

Thank you. I am sorry to hear about your problem.

Yes a retinoid gel (Adapalene or Epiduo) can be helpful. Your GP or dermatologist can prescribe it.

I hope this is helpful.
With Best Wishes,
