Obagi Skin Care

As you age, fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, roughness, and dryness may begin to plague your once-healthy skin. However, it is possible to have beautiful, healthy skin again. Healthy skin is smooth and firm; it has few wrinkles. The color is even, not blotchy. Healthy skin is moist, not dry. And, it is free of blemishes. There are two main reasons why your skin is no longer as healthy as it once was: the passage of time and exposure to the sun. Adding to the effects of time and sun are stress, pollution, hormonal changes, and smoke. The result is damage to you skin that may show up as fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged pores, roughness, a lack of elasticity, dryness, uneven skin tone, and pigmentation changes such as age spots. Over-the-counter skin care products are not enough. They affect only the surface of your skin, cover the underlying problems, and offer limited and short-lived effects. The Obagi Nu-Derm System (www.obagi.com) is the systematic, ongoing process for achieving healthy skin. The Nu-Derm System is a comprehensive daily regimen that includes medical prescribed products to restore your skin's health. The Nu-Derm products area unique line of skin conditioning cleansers, corrective creams, and sun protection products.

Obagi Nu-Derm restores skin health on the surface by stimulating cells called keritinocytes. Improved turnover leaves the skin smooth, with more even skin color, improved tightening of the skin, and well-hydrated skin. Obagi Nu-Derm is a comprehensive step-by-step regimen that is customized to the needs of your skin. In addition, after conditioning your skin with the Obagi Nu-Derm regimen, your skin may benefit from a Blue Peel, a unique chemical peel that tightens skin, diminishes fine lines and wrinkles, and produces a more even skin tone.
