According to its official website, the Obagi Nu-Derm System was created in 1988 by the Obagi company, which began operating as Obagi Medical Products in 1997. The line was designed for physicians in the aesthetic markets of dermatology and plastic surgery to treat adult skin concerns like rosacea, premature aging, photodamage, hyperpigmentation, sun damage, fine lines, wrinkles and even acne.

Obagi Systems

Obagi Medical Products markets its skincare products as systems that address specific skin issues. Those systems include: the Obagi-C Rx System, the Condition and Enhance System, the Nu-Derm System, ELASTIderm Eye Treatment, ELASTIderm Decolletage, the Rosaclear System, Professional-C Serums and CLENZIderm M.D. System.

Product Focus

According to Real Self, Dr. Zein E. Obagi, a Beverly Hills dermatologist, created the prescription-strength product lines with a specific focus on improving and preventing visible adult skin disorders. He then expanded to skin restoration and rejuvenation.

Product Ingredients

Obagi claims to repair the skin's problems at the cellular level and not just on the surface, according to Skin Care Rx. Key ingredients featured in the Obagi product line, include: Benzoyl Peroxide, Salicylic Acid, Hydroquinone and Vitamin C. In addition, the Obagi website provides a variety of clinical study and professional publication information on both skincare and specifically Obagi products.
