Tretinoin is a prescription topical retinoid, sold plain by some companies and blended into personalized formulas by others. Most sellers price it as a subscription, and several ship a two-month supply billed as one charge, so the table converts every published price to a monthly figure before comparing. Each row links to the company page the price was read from, with the date it was checked.

Advertised price is the number the company publishes. All-in monthly adds the membership fee the same company's pages state is required and billed separately.
Personalized Acne Formula (compounded prescription topical cream, applied once nightly; ingredients drawn from adapalene, benzoyl peroxide, tretinoin, azelaic acid, clindamycin per the Ingredients page)
First month vs recurring
Homepage/site-wide banner: "Save over 80% on your first month — only $29.95 $4.99." Treatment page: "First month $4.99, then $29.95/month." Support FAQ describes the $4.99 first month as a "28 day trial": the 2nd and 3rd bottles are shipped together (~56 days after signup) and charged at that point; the ongoing cycle then runs every 56 days at the $29.95/month equivalent rate (2 bottles per shipment, ~$59.90 charged per 56-day cycle).
Notes
Page also advertises an oral-antibiotic add-on for existing/eligible customers: "$59.99 | 16 week course" (doxycycline), "subject to clinical review of individual skin concerns and eligibility," requested via the account dashboard — not treated as a separate offer here since it is an add-on to, not a substitute for, the formula subscription and pricing eligibility is not publicly determinable.
Personalized Anti-Aging Formula (compounded prescription topical, applied once nightly; retinoid-class actives per Ingredients page)
First month vs recurring
Identical mechanics to the acne formula: "First month $4.99, then $29.95/month," described by support FAQ as a "28 day trial" before the 2nd/3rd bottles ship together (~56 days after signup) and the $29.95/month-equivalent cycle begins.

Program and visit fees where the medication is priced separately
These companies prescribe tretinoin but advertise a program, membership, or visit fee instead of a medication price. The medication cost is billed separately and in most cases is not published on their public pages, so these rows are not part of the medication price range above.
"Skincare Rx" subscription: initial video consult with chosen provider, personalized treatment plan (prescriptions as appropriate), unlimited provider messaging, and follow-up visits as needed.
How much does tretinoin cost per month through a telehealth company?
Advertised prices for tretinoin range from $23.33 to $89 per month across 24 offers tracked here. Several companies also require a separately billed membership, which raises the all-in monthly cost above the advertised medication price.
Why is the all-in monthly cost sometimes higher than the advertised price?
3 of the 27 medication offers on this page require a membership or platform fee that is billed separately from the advertised medication price. The all-in column adds that required fee to the monthly-equivalent medication price using the fee amounts published on the same companies' pages.
When were these prices last checked?
Every price on this page was checked against the company's own public pages on the date shown in its row, currently Aug 14, 2026 to Aug 15, 2026.
