Who is an ideal candidate for the Obagi Nu-Derm System (steps 1-6)?
Obagi is typically recommended to those with pigmentation concerns, sun damage and scarring. It is a resurfacing product and is probably the most aggressive product line that we offer. It is normal to experience some peeling, flaking and irritation in the first 6-10 weeks of use, as the product is removing the upper damaged layers of skin. This system is not for sensitive skin types! A prescription form of Retin A is to be used with the Blender in the evening. If you are unable to get a prescription, we offer a variety of substitutes; however, they will not be as strong, but will be less irritating. How do I use the Obagi Nu-Derm System and in what order?
