Celimax Retinal Booster Goes Viral on TikTok for Wrinkle-Filling Effects

Celimax's The Vita-A Retinal Shot Tightening Booster, a Korean skincare treatment, has gained viral attention on TikTok for its wrinkle-smoothing effects. The product uses retinal (a more potent vitamin A derivative than retinol) that converts efficiently into retinoic acid, delivering faster anti-aging results. It contains 0.1% pure retinal, 3% Matrixyl 3000, and A-Shot complex for improved absorption. The booster is applied as a targeted treatment directly on areas of concern, not uniformly across the face. Dr. Collins noted that liposomized retinal stabilizes the ingredient and improves penetration. Vogue's Kiana Murden uses it as a preventative treatment, applying it on hydrated skin between toner and occlusive cream. The product should be used in the evening, starting twice a week, with gradual frequency increase and morning sunscreen application. It is not suitable for very sensitive skin due to retinal's potency.
