Obagi Blue Peel treatments
......................................................................................................
The Blue Peel is a procedure designed to significantly improve the appearance and health of your skin, as well as even out any pigmentary problems involving the face and other areas of the body suitable for men and women of any skin type and colour. It is ideal for anyone who wants to look better and reverse the appearance of the ageing process. Those who have blemish-prone skin, wrinkles, pigmentation problems, sun damage, or general poor skin quality will benefit the most.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Using a low concentration of the chemical trichloroacetic acid (TCA) mixed with a special blue base to slow penetration, the Blue Peel is a one to four step application that effectively removes the thin surface layers of aged and damaged skin from the face or other parts of the body. These dead skin cells are replaced by healthier ones, allowing the skin’ s own clarity and tightness to resurface. Application of the Blue Peel takes about 20 minutes, depending on the number of coats your doctor has determined are necessary to achieve your goals and in most cases, does not require sedation.

WHERE CAN IT BE USED?
The Obagi Blue Peel is suitable for the treatment of fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, acne, oily skin and large pores. It can be used to treat the face or other parts of the body such as the neck, chest, hands, back, arms and legs.

HOW LONG DOES IT LAST?
When your skin has completely finished peeling you will immediately notice the dramatic results of your newly improved complexion. Your skin’ s appearance will continue to improve for the next 4 to 6 weeks, becoming firmer, clearer, smoother, healthier and more youthful looking. To maintain the youthful appearance of the skin is an ongoing process and the Obagi Nu-Derm® restoration system is an at-home program to promote long-term overall skin health.

ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS?
You will experience a mild burning sensation that lasts two to three minutes. Immediately after the procedure, a bluish tint remains on your skin, which will usually wash off in 12 to 24 hours. Your skin will begin to peel within 2 to 3 days and should be healed in an average of 7 to 10 days.
