Obagi Skin Care

Obagi Skin Care

Obagi Medical products work by changing the way the skin functions at a cellular level, delivering unparalleled results. The Obagi System is comprised of a range of topical treatments developed to address a variety of skin concerns. This skin care range includes a medical prescription based treatment programme that requires a consultation with Dr Comins or his skin care Nurses ( which in most cases this can be done online). It has been developed to treat a wide variety of skin issues including :

  • Ageing skin
  • Acne, acne scarring and blemishes
  • Melasma / pigmentation
  • Red, blotchy and sore skin
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Loss of elasticity
  • Loss of natural skin hydration

The Obagi Nu-Derm System uses a unique combination of active and prescription ingredients – including Tretinoin and Hydroquinone 4% – to maximize penetration to all skin layers. The specific dosage and frequency are determined and monitored by Dr Mike Comins and his skin care nurses to your skin condition, needs and lifestyle.

The System triggers a Therapeutic Cascade that :

  • Increases cellular turnover promoting a faster turnover for new cells to emerge
  • Prevents hyperpigmentation and promotes the even distribution of melanin, eliminating unwanted dark patches and age spots
  • Produces healthy, uniform cells for better skin structure
  • Stimulates fibroblasts to increase collagen and elastin formation, resulting in stronger, more resilient skin
  • Increases GAG synthesis, providing natural hydration and necessary nutrients to the epidermis
  • Improves bloodflow to the skin.

At Hans Place Practice we only provide clinically proven, effective skincare which compliments the facial rejuvenation treatments performed by us.

Some Obagi skin care products need to be prescribed by a medical professional.

Using its Penetrating Therapeutics technology, Obagi products are designed to improve penetration of prescription and cosmetic agents across the skin barrier to minimize premature aging, skin damage, hyperpigmentation, acne, sun damage, and the signs and symptoms of rosacea.

Because Obagi systems and products contain prescription-strength formulations, the systems are available only through cosmetic doctors, plastic surgeons and dermatologists.

Depending on the degree of skin damage and product usage, the yearly cost is very competitive and usually less than prestigious department store brands.

  • Diminish the appearance of fine lines & wrinkles
  • Increase smoothness
  • Reduce pore size and Improve elasticity
  • Generate a balanced, even skin tone
  • Normalize oil production
  • Reduce age spots and/or hyperpigmentation
  • Increase the skin’s own ability to hold moisture

The Obagi Nu-Derm system uses medically prescribed products in conjunction with Retin A therapy to restore the natural glow and elasticity of healthy skin. Importantly, it stimulates at the cellular level to increase collagen and elastin and to renew the flow of natural moisture to the surface. The Obagi Nu-Derm products are designed to work synergistically with each other and should not be mixed with other products.

Yes, Dr Comins will design a specific program for your skin type and colour, and will determine the proper course of action that is right for you and your lifestyle.

After the treatment it is easy to maintain your new, healthy, younger-looking skin for a lifetime with the Nu-Derm System. With your doctor’s advice, it will be simple to develop a maintenance regimen that fits your skin type and the nature of your skin problems.

As a skincare regime no other product brands should be used in conjunction with Obagi as these can compromise the treatment. Obagi can be used in conjunction with the skin rejuvenation treatments provided by Dr Comins here at Hans Place Practice. These include:
