At some point, everyone needs a little help managing his or her skin. Whether you suffer from fine lines, wrinkles, or sunspots, skin care is extremely important.
The products you get from your plastic surgeon, dermatologist, or professional aesthetician's office are going to be significantly better than the ones you can purchase over the counter or in a drug store.
Unlike mass retail skin care products, many of these physician-dispensed skin care lines are clinically tested for positive results. One of these exclusive product lines is called Obagi, and it is probably the best kept secret in Southern California.
What is in the Obagi Skin Care Line?
Obagi is a full range of products to address every skin type and every concern. They are a leader in the science of skin rejuvenation, and they're most famous for the BLUE PEEL.
Their products are not only effective, but also simple to use and they restore the skin to its most healthy state.
Their products contain a variety of essential ingredients, such as:
Hydromanil – a potent moisturizer that captures and retains water
Hydroquinone – treats pigmentation and blocks the process of skin discoloration
L-Asorbic Acid – a topical Vitamin C that supports collagen synthesis
Benzoyl Peroxide – unclogs pores and helps reduce acne-causing bacteria
Peptides – helps support collagen growth
Zinc Oxide – provides broad spectrum UVA and UVB sun protection
Retinol – used to minimize the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and smooth skin texture
Plant-based Growth Factors – improves the appearance of aging skin.
The Obagi Nu Derm skin care products are some of the fastest ways to brighten your complexion and reverse the signs of aging. Dermatologists often recommend a 3-month treatment session for Obagi Nu Derm.
Afterwards, you will get started on a maintenance program that is designed to keep your skin healthy and attractive all year long. Nu-Derm is ideal for anyone with age spots, rough skin, redness, or hyperpigmentation.
In addition, Obagi products are used to prepare the skin for resurfacing, either with a Blue Peel, or a state-of-the-art CO2 laser. Proper preparation of the skin will often lead to a quicker recovery and significantly better results for our clients.
In addition to the Obagi Nu Derm skin care line, there is also the Obagi360 System which is uniquely formulated to address the skin care needs of women and men in their 20s and 30s.
This skin care line will proactively address dull and uneven skin texture, appearance of fine lines, visible pores, and dry skin.
The Obagi Clenziderm M.D. System is designed to help acne prone individuals. Its three-step acne treatment program is clinically proven to help control adult acne.
The results are nothing short of miraculous.
If your skin is sensitive, don’t worry, there is an Obagi system for you.
The Gentle Rejuvenation System is specially formulated for sensitive skin and can help reduce the signs of aging. They achieve this by using an exclusive Kinetin-Zeatin Complex that is known for promoting healthy and youthful-looking skin.
Lastly, the Obagi-C Rx System will help address the early signs of aging and damage with prescription strength 4% hydroquinone.
This system is ideal for those individuals who are noticing more minimal fine lines and wrinkles, moderate unevenness in skin tone, and mild-moderate discoloration.
