Obagi Medical Skin Rejuvenation

Aging and environmental factors slow down skin cell functions…
 Obagi transforms skin by restoring skin cell function.

The Obagi system combines specially developed products with medical supervision and counseling to treat your skin from the inside out. Obagi products penetrate below the surface of your skin to stimulate cell renewal, improve circulation, and help to restore your skin’s natural moisture.  It also works on the surface to smooth roughness and to correct damage that results in uneven skin tone and hyper-pigmentation.

Obagi System skin care products transform your skin at the cellular level so your skin looks and acts younger and healthier…

HOW OBAGI SYSTEMS WORK:
In damaged skin, the stratum corneum is thick and dehydrated, skin cells are misshapen and disorganized, excess melanin causes freckles and age spots, while collagen and elastin fibers become weaker and more damaged. Healthy skin cells function normally when there is continual renewal of old, dead cells which are simultaneously replaced by fresh healthy cells being pushed to the surface.  This makes the skin’s surface smoother and naturally hydrated.  While age spots seem to disappear, melanin is more evenly distributed to prevent the appearance of new, fresh spots. The healthy skin is rich in collagen which promotes resilience and firmness.  All these functions work together to keep the skin acting younger and healthier.

THE FOUR PHASES OF TRANSFORMATION:
There are four phases of skin transformation experienced by every person who uses Obagi – without exception.  They are:

Phase 1 - Out with the old - Obagi penetrates to the deepest dermal level to correct signs of  aging and acne flares.  Old, dead cells are pushed up and replaced with fresh new ones. Itching dryness and redness occur as the skin adapts to the prescription strength ingredients.  (Weeks 1-6)

Phase 2 – In with the new – Healthy new cells are producing, pigment/melanin become more evenly distributed, collagen is stimulated – smoother, softer, clearer skin appears.
(Weeks 7-12)

Phase 3 – Healthy glow – Skin cells are in transformation process, collagen production continues, skin is clearer, firmer and tighter – with a healthy glow, natural hydration, even color, and more resilience.   (Weeks 12-18)

Phase 4 – The new you!  - Your skin is transformed - it looks and acts younger and healthier. With continued use you can expect to maintain the new you.
