Skin rejuvenation

Skin rejuvenation with Obaji Nu Derm.

How does it work?

A skin care regime devised by Dr Zein Obagi to enhance the penetration of two presciption-only medicated creams; tretinoin and hydroquinone, into the correct layer of the skin where they can act most effectively.

Skin Care System

How long does it take to work?

  • 8-12 weeks: pigmentation clears, rosacea or acne is controlled
  • 9-12 months, improvement in fine to moderate lines, acne scarring and stretch marks.
  • 4 years: continued use leads to further improvement
  • Deterioration begins to be seen after 6-12 months if treatment is stopped

What is it?

  • It is a skin care regime devised by Dr Zein Obagi to enhance the penetration of two presciption-only medicated creams (tretinoin and hydroquinone) into the correct layer of the skin where they can act most effectively.

What are the medicines?

  • Tretinoin: This medicine is the active intra-cellular form of vitamin A which engages receptors on the cell’s nucleus and stimulates the cell to use its own processes to heal itself.
  • Hydroquinone: This is the most effective pigment stabilising medicine so far discovered.

Why can't I use my own skin care regime with these medicines?

  • Because they will interfere with the penetration of tretinoin and hydroquinone.

Can I use make-up

  • Yes, you can apply mineral based make-up over the products.

What are the side-effects?

  • Your skin will get a little red and flaky from time to time.
  • The regime will be tailored to your individual skin to maximise the benefits while minimising the side-effects.

Why not use over-the-counter products instead?

  • Compared with the obvious improvements possible with Obagi Nu-Derm, over the counter products are just not as effective.
