About Obagi Cleansing Product for the FaceObagi skin products are made to perform at the cellular level. By increasing cell growth, old skin is removed and fresh new skin is allowed to develop. This not only appears to slow the facial aging process, but leaves users with healthy, radiant looking skin.

Obagi cleansing products are the first step in their skin care process. A doctor's prescription is required to use the products.
History
Obagi skin products include prescription strength remedies for skin issues, including acne, vulgaris, rosacea, photodamage, and hyperpigmentation. The topical products are grouped into "systems" with each system aimed at improving one of these mentioned conditions. The first Obagi skin products were created in 1988 by Dr. Zein Obagi and his team of medical partners.

The result in skin that looks and feels years younger. Age spots or sun spots are minimized. The Obagi Condition and Enhance System improves the overall makeup of the skin. Infusing moisture and clarifying properties, the skin appears rejuvenated after using these products.

Function
For those suffering from adult acne, the Obagi CLENZIderm M.D. is a three-step system including a therapy of liquid benzol peroxide. This form of benzol peroxide penetrates the skin deeper than other forms, and works well in clearing up acne. Obagi ELASTIderm Eye Treatment plumps and moisturizes the delicate skin around the eyes to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.
Function
A misconception about healthy skin care is that it ends on the face. The neck and upper-chest area, known as the decolletage, are often overlooked. This is some of the most sensitive skin on the body, and it directly effects the appearance of facial skin. The Obagi ELASTIderm Decolletage System helps to restore the young and healthy appearance of this delicate skin.
Benefits
Skin is often the first thing other people notice. Unhealthy skin, skin with acne, or skin that has aged poorly and shows these signs with lines, wrinkles and discoloration, makes people look older and less vibrant than they would with younger, healthy looking skin. Skin is a living organ and must be treated with deliberate care. The Obagi systems for cleansing and treating the skin work wonders for improving overall skin health. Make an appointment with a doctor if you are troubled by any of these skin issues, and ask if one of the Obagi systems might be right for you.
