The Obagi Protocols System Skin Care Regime

The Obagi Protocols System offer you unique, unprecedented solutions for skin health and rejuvenation with impressive results.

Blemishes, acne scars, wrinkles, uneven pigmentation and sun damage are all common conditions which affect your skin. If you suffer with any of these conditions or you just want healthier, smoother looking skin, there is now a new way to dramatically improve your complexion.

Following years of research, Dr Obagi, a Californian dermatologist, formulated a skin care regime which optimises skin conditioning and health.

The regime is simple and is tailored to each individual’s skin. Tretinoin 0.05% or 0.1% is used once or twice daily depending on the extent of fine lines, wrinkles and pigmentation patches. Following a set of simple steps of cleansing, toning, correction followed by exfoliation (mornings) or stimulation with Retinova® 0.05% (evenings) will result in increased cell turnover, correction of pigmentation problems and stimulation of collagen formation in the deeper layers of the dermis.

You will find that your skin is smoother and more supple with a visible reduction in fine lines and wrinkles.

We also offer skin peels.

Dr Chadha offers three depths of chemical facial peels:

1. Radiance peel

The Obagi Blue Peel Radiance is the new addition to the Obagi medical range It contains a unique blend of acids to provide a gentle but effective salicylic acid-based facial chemical peel, resulting in tighter, smoother, brighter-looking skin immediately after just one treatment. Salicylic acid–based peels are used to improve patient outcomes for a range of skin concerns, including photo damage, acne scarring, melasma and improved texture and tone. Blue Peel Radiance effectively exfoliates the uppermost damaged skin layers, leaving your skin fresh, renewed, and radiant with little to no downtime.

How many Blue Peel Radiance treatments will I need?
Blue Peel Radiance treatments can be performed in a series of 4-6 treatments scheduled 2-4 weeks apart, approx. 2 times per year. If the desired results aren’t achieved with a course of Blue Peel Radiance treatments we may recommend a stronger peel such as the Obagi Blue Peel.

Post Resurfacing Instructions
The practitioner will provide the patient with written instructions on any special instructions for home care, including use of skin clear SPF30 daily and if necessary the use of a hat.

Price Single: £100. Course of 6 £500.

2. Deep Exfoliative (weekend) Peel

This peel is suited to those requesting a “skin refreshener” as a result of which the skin does not generally take more than three days to heal. There is therefore minimal downtime for those unable to take a week off work. A 15% concentration of trichloracetic acid is used mixed with Obagi blue dye. Peeling is restricted to the epidermis only.

3. Standard Blue Peel

This is a medium depth peel. The skin will generally take seven to ten days to heal, so clients will need to take a week off work. A 15% or 20% concentration of trichloracetic acid is used mixed with the Obagi blue dye. Repeated applications are made to the desired depth. Peeling reaches the upper dermis. The procedure takes about forty minutes. This peel will result in the following benefits:

  • skin refinement
  • reduction in pore size
  • removal of blemishes and pigmented areas
  • reduction in fine lines and wrinkles
  • skin tightening, dependant on peel depth
  • removal of superficial e.g. acne scarring

Pre-peel Requirements
All clients need to use the Obagi Protocols skin regime for at least 3 weeks prior to peeling. The better the skin condition prior to peeling, the faster the healing process afterwards. Darker skin tones tend to need a longer period of skin conditioning prior to peeling. Black skin, for example, needs conditioning for 2 to 3 months prior to peeling.

Clients are advised to stop the active products no 3, 4, 5 and Tretinoin 3 days prior to their peel.

Cold Sore Treatment
Susceptible clients are advised to cover the procedure with a course of Acyclovir 200 mg five times daily for seven days.

Pain Relief
The Obagi Blue Peel is a painful procedure. However, much can be done to lessen the discomfort experienced.

The Peel Procedure

Dr Chadha will run through the procedure with you and ask you to sign a consent form. She will repeat the aftercare instructions which are printed for you to take home.

You will be made comfortable on a couch with a convector fan placed nearby. A predetermined concentration of tricholoroacetic acid peel mixture will be applied in layers until the desired depth is achieved. Time is taken between applications to cool your face with the fan until discomfort eases. When the procedure is complete, your face will be gently cleansed to remove much of the blue dye. It is usual that some of the blue dye will remain, however, until peeling starts to occur during the days following the procedure. You may, therefore, be advised not to plan to take public transport home.

The procedure taking about twenty minutes.

This peel will refresh dull skin and will remove superficial blemishes and pigmentation.

Aftercare during the week following your Peel
You may notice some swelling the day following a standard peel. You will be instructed to cleanse your face twice daily and to apply a mixture of Obagi action and comfort gel four times daily. This regime should be continued until peeling is complete. The onset and duration of peeling varies according to the depth of your peel. It is important that you do not aid peeling by picking, as this can result in areas of scarring. Peeling must be allowed to progress naturally. Peeling skin can be clipped with scissors but must not be pulled off.

Aftercare one to six weeks following your Peel
Once peeling is complete you will be advised to gradually reintroduce your Obagi Protocols skin regime with the aid of written instructions. It is common following a standard peel that the face is temporarily pinker than usual. Within a few weeks your usual skin tone returns as you reintroduce your Obagi skin care regime.

Your skin will look its radiant best about 6 weeks following a standard blue peel.

Obagi Skincare in the Long Term
Whether you have a peel or not, the Obagi, Protocols skin regime will optimise your skins condition in the long term. Once your skin has been conditioned, until the desired effects are achieved, by twice daily application of the Obagi products, you are instructed to start a maintenance regime. This involves using the active products (no 3, 4, 5 and 0.05% Retinova) twice weekly according to written instructions which will be given to you. This maintenance regime should be continued long term. However, you may be advised to periodically boost your skin’s health by restarting the twice daily regime for a period of six weeks. Dr Chadha will discuss the most appropriate long term plan for your particular skin and answer any questions you may have.
