What can I expect when I use the Obagi Nu-Derm System?
It is important to understand that you will experience some reactions such as redness, peeling and itching as part of your skin's Transformation process. These changes mean that the treatment is working. Don't be discouraged. Instead, renew your commitment to transform your skin. In a few weeks, you will begin to notice improvement. The length of time for each phase depends on your daily commitment to use the System and the condition of your skin.
1 - Out with the old
What Happens?
The Obagi Nu-Derm System penetrates to the deepest layer of the skin to correct signs of aging. Old, dead skin cells are sloughed off and replaced with fresh cells. Itching, dryness and redness indicate that your treatment is working.
This phase lasts approximately 6-8 weeks and you can expect more even-toned skin as pigment cells begin to become balanced.
2 - In with the new
What Happens?
Your skin begins producing normal, healthy cells. Healthy new cells are pushed to the surface faster. Pigment cells are distributing melanin more evenly. Collagen and elastin production is stimulated. Your skin begins to tolerate the treatment and reactions subside.
This phase lasts approximately 6-8 weeks and you can expect smoother, softer skin as its natural rhythm of renewal is regained.
3 - Healthy glow
What Happens?
Skin cells are in the process of Transformation. Layers of the skin receive an increased supply of nutrients and blood flow. Healthy, strong collagen and elastin production continues. Skin is smooth, naturally hydrated, evenly coloured and more resilient.
This phase lasts approximately 6-8 weeks and you can expect to see the skin becoming firmer and tighter with improved clarity and a healthy glow.
4 - The New You
