The Obagi Nu-Derm Sytem is a popular skin-care system prescribed by many dermatologists around the world. This skin care system works at a cellular level. Under the guidance of trained dermatologists, the Obagi Nu-Derm System can help correct skin blemishes and discoloration and stimulate the renewal of your skin cells to bring back the softness and glow of younger, healthy-looking skin. The Obagi Nu-Derm System is available through a prescription from a licensed dermatologist or physician.
Step 1
Consult a dermatologist who is familiar and is licensed to prescribe the Obagi Nu-Derm line of products. She will assess the condition of your skin and monitor the use of the products. See the link in the Resources section below to locate a dermatologist who is familiar with the Obagi Nu-Derm products.
Step 2
Apply the Obagi clear lotion in the morning after showering. This will make your facial skin smooth and eliminate dead skin cells. This lotion will also correct uneven skin tone and damaged skin while reducing age spots.
Step 3
Apply the Obagi blender and tretinoin creams at night. Combine ½ g of Tretinoin with ½ g of Obagi blender in a small clean bowl. Mix the creams and apply to your face. This mixture will speed up the skin-repair process. You will experience some redness and irritation during the first few days of use. If it is causing too much discomfort, perform this step every other night until the irritation lessens.
Step 4
Apply the Obagi action moisturizing lotion if you notice your skin getting irritated during your treatment. This lotion is used as a moisturizer and will not block your skin pores. It will also relieve the discomforts of irritation, soreness, redness and dryness.
Step 5
Apply the Obagi sunfader and healthy skin protection SPF 35 sunblock lotion before sun exposure. You must apply these creams to protect your skin from the sun's potent ultraviolet rays during skin treatment to prevent skin darkening and skin irritation.
