Obagi brand skin care products seem to be flooding the market.  Any random search and you can find seemingly any Obagi product you want from online retailers such as Amazon and even so called online skin care providers. Why not buy direct from the internet and save money while getting the skin care I need. Is your skin important to you?  Did you know that the most effective Obagi products are not available "Over The Counter"?  

Can I Use Obagi Skin Care Products Without a Doctor's Prescription?

The answer is not an easy "Yes" because the most effective Obagi skin care products are in fact prescription only due to the ingredients and/or strength of chemicals found within them.

When it comes to advanced skin care treatment, always consult your skin care specialist and if believe there is a comparable product to what your skin care specialist is prescribing you, then simply ask.  While most effective skin care products do contact federally monitored chemicals, if your skin care solution can be handled by over the counter products your skin care specialist is going to happily tell you which ones, if any.

Do not leave the quality of life and the happiness of the skin you are in to a product found on the internet just because it may carry the Obagi name. Always check with your skin care specialist for a proper treatment plan.

Peel away the signs of skin aging with Obagi Blue Peel. What is a chemical peel?

A chemical peel is a minimally invasive procedure that helps improve the appearance of skin. During the procedure, your doctor carefully applies combinations of powerful solutions to the face, decolletage (neck and chest), or hands to remove dead skin cells. The solutions penetrate into the skin, causing dead skin cells to peel off. The new skin is smoother and more refined-looking.

There are many types of chemical peel preparations, and the right preparation for ytou depends on your skin type and desired results. Medium-depth chemical peels often include the use of trichloroacetic acid. (TCA) to improve the appearance of:

• Fine to medium wrinkles
• Moderate photodamage
• Discoloration problems
• Superficial acne scars

Chemical peels in general can also improve other skin problems, including:

• Acne
• Freckles
• Facial scars
• Rough skin

Reveal healthier, younger-looking skin with Original Blue Peel

• Skin will appear firmer, clearer, and smoother
• Patented Blue Peel Base allows your doctor to tailor the application process to the specific needs of your skin

• Application takes about 20 minutes

From Obagi Nu-Derm Systems, to Obagi-C RX Systems, only the Prescription Strength products give the results you deserve.
