Obagi. The name conjures up images of oriental mystery. But for
those women who have experienced its life-changing effects, Obagi
stands for youthful, radiant skin.
As we age, skin becomes damaged by pollution, rays of the sun,
and harsh weather. Add to that the improper eating and exercise
habits we often have and our skin ends up looking much older than we
would like. It’s not enough just to cover up the problems with
makeup or treat them temporarily, we need to encourage the growth of
healthy new skin cells. That’s where an Obagi Blue Chemical Peel
comes to the rescue. Although an Obagi Peel can be expensive, it
isn’t painful and is weaker than an absolute peel.
There are a number of different types of chemical peels. Some
peels are so weak that they are only effective in dealing with
blackheads and pimples. Others, like an absolute peel, are so harsh
that you need anaesthesia while the peel is being administered. An
absolute peel can also result in permanent bleached skin since the
solution is so strong.
An Obagi Peel is just the right peel for your skin, not too weak
and not too harsh. There are no side effects or problems for allergy
sufferers. Not only that, but an Obagi Chemical Peel is customized
just for you and can be used regardless of your race or skin type.
In about 30 minutes, the procedure helps to restore your skin,
although it often requires a number of treatments. Some people
experience a stinging sensation during the treatment, although this
is minor.
A licensed professional applies the blue, paste-like substance to
your face, temporarily staining your skin. The solution peels off
the thin surface layers of damaged skin, allowing it to be replaced
by healthy new skin. Sometimes the skin will severely peel from your
face, so it’s often recommended that you stay home from work for
about a week after your treatment. During this time, you aren’t able
to wear makeup since it could cause infection and block healing.
Obagi has an entire line of skin care products that need to be used
faithfully after having the peel.
Crow’s feet disappear, pores become smaller, dark spots and lines
are no longer visible. Even scars become a thing of the past. Thanks
to the Obagi Chemical Peel, a new you is just around the corner.
