USES
Renova is used to improve the appearance of the skin by reducing fine lines and wrinkles, reducing roughness and improving coloration. It can also be used to treat acne.

HOW TO USE THIS MEDICATION
This medication is for use on the face as directed, usually once a day at bedtime. Apply a pea-size amount of cream to clean, dry skin on the face being careful to avoid the eyes, nostrils and mouth. Cover affected area lightly. Wash hands after use. Do not use Renova more often than prescribed or in large amounts. It will not give you faster or better results but will increase the risk of side effects. Do not use on sunburn or eczema or other serious skin conditions. Effects of this medication will be gradual with most improvement seen in the first 6 months of continued therapy. If used for acne the condition may worsen at first, then improve.
