You have the ability to Transform their skin with the Obagi Nu-Derm System, proven to improve skin functions so that skin looks and acts younger and healthier.
How it Works: Transformation at the Cellular Level
The Obagi Nu-Derm System uses a unique combination of active and prescription ingredients - including Tretinoin and Hydroquinone 4% - to maximize penetration to all skin layers. The specific dosage and frequency are determined and monitored by you, according to your patient's skin condition, needs and lifestyle.
The System triggers our Therapeutic Cascade™ that: |
|
Increases cellular turnover of abundant, healthy keratinocytes, pushing fresh cells to the surface more quickly and promoting old cells to exfoliate faster |
|
Suppresses melanocyte production reversing and preventing hyperpigmentation |
|
Promotes the even distribution of melanin, eliminating unwanted dark patches and age spots |
|
Improves intracellular transcription of keratinocytes, producing healthy, uniform cells for better skin structure |
|
Stimulates fibroblasts to increase collagen and elastin formation, resulting in stronger, more resilient skin |
|
Increases GAG synthesis, providing natural hydration and necessary nutrients to the epidermis |
|
Increases angiogenesis, improving blood flow |
|

The Obagi-C Rx System:
For Brighter, Photolumines TM Skin
As the first and only prescription-strength Vitamin C skin care system, the Obagi-C Rx System was designed for mild to moderate sun-damaged skin. With the Obagi-C Rx System, skin is more radiant, smooth and hydrated - more Photolumines.

Attract More Patients with Photolumines Results

When your patients come to you looking to prevent the effects of aging, you now have a skin solution that delivers skin improvements for brighter, radiant skin.

The Obagi Blue Peel System:
Accelerate the Transformation
Begin your patients' remarkable skin Transformation in less than an hour with the Obagi Blue Peel. Unlike common alpha-hydroxy peels or other superficial procedures, the Obagi Blue Peel puts control in the right hands - yours. Based on your patients' particular skin needs, you determine the strength and depth of Tricloracetic Acid (TCA) peels and number of coats applied. A blue mixing base with built-in safeguards helps ensure consistent results. You control the procedure. Your patient enjoys the results.
Built-in control: Flexible for you to Adr
Only the Obagi Blue Peel features built-in controls to promote superior outcomes, including:
| • |
Simple coat system, even application and fixed concentrations of TCA to reduce variables such as overpainting. |
| • |
Non-ionic blue base with glycerin that acts as a color guide and slows TCA penetration for a more even, uniform distribution. |
| • |
Easy-to-recognize endpoints that signal desired depth, determining outcome. |
Selecting Patients for the Obagi Blue Peel System
The Obagi Blue Peel System is best for patients who want a fast procedure with dramatic results. In less than an hour, an in-office procedure, Obagi Blue Peel is effective for:

What to Expect?
The Obagi Blue Peel is a quick and simple procedure for you to administer that does not typically require sedation. Application typically to the face and neck takes about 20 minutes, depending on the number of coats applied. Your patients can expect a burning sensation that lasts only a few minutes and a bluish tint to their skin that usually washes off in 12 to 24 hours.
Following the procedure, patients will experience light swelling. Within two to three days, their skin will begin to peel. This peeling continues over the next several days. By the seventh to tenth day, their skin should be healed and start looking younger and healthier.
Once their skin has completely recovered and is finished peeling, your patients will notice a visible improvement in their complexion. Their skin's appearance will continue to improve for the next four to six weeks, becoming firmer, clearer, smoother, healthier and more youthful looking.
