Obagi - thoughts?

Went to see a dr in Harley street today and was recommended the Obagi range - anyone have experience/thoughts on this particular range? I know it's Dr prescribed only. Quite expensive but willing to pay if it does work.... thanks!

I did obagi.

I did it for sun damage/pigmentation. I wanted to try laser but they insisted this was the best treatment. I advised I have rosacea so was a bit unsure how my sensitive skin would react.

Long story short, it didn't work. It made my sensitive skin much worse.

However, for each bad story you get another who it did wonders for.

The only other person I know who has had it without any trouble freely admitted they had skin as tough as a rhinoceros bum 😂

I tried if but really couldn't bear the feeling of no moisturiser! My cousin used it and after the flakiness she had beautiful skin, but eventually gave up too.

I did the nu derm system a few years ago. Skin peeled off like a lizard and did so for about 3 months but my pigmentation was gone afterwards.

His new line ZO (Zein Obagi) Skin Health is better if you’re going to be paying £££. He compares original Nokia mobile phone to new iPhone.
Can just copy basic obagi by applying hydroquinone then mixing some hydroquinone with tretinoin and slapping that on. Prescription only but available www.unitedpharmacies.com

ZO skin health has “brightenex” as eventual non-hydroquinone route for pigmentation issues and promotes retinol products, for which you can gain tolerance.
Hydroquinone / tretinoin will always have its place for diseased skin but very red, flaky itchy...

If you want to spend his new line is the way forward
