FAQ at Happy Clinic Indy
Indy OBAGI® Medical Products
Obagi Medical Products has been around since 1988 and has been a staple of Dermatology, Plastic Surgery, and Medical Spa offices since then. I have used and recommended Obagi Medical Products now for over 13 years because of the consistent results that it gives to patients with issues of hyperpigmentation and melasma.
How does the Indy Obagi Nu-Derm system work?
"At Happy Clinic I recommend the Obagi Nu-Derm for patients with moderate to severely damaged skin with issues of texture, ruddiness, pigmentation, and melasma. Skin aging is a natural process, but daily sun exposure can contribute to premature aging"
The Nu-Derm System helps transform the skin’s appearance by reducing darks spots, revealing younger, healthier-looking skin.
Nu-Derm is ideal if you have:
-
Age spots
-
Rough skin
-
Erythema (redness)
-
Sallowness (yellowish complexion)
-
Hyperpigmentation (discoloration)
-
Patients should know that the Obagi Nu-Derm system is aggressive, patients also should understand that when using an aggressive treatment, they are required to avoid sun exposure, daily use and reaplication of a physical sunscreen containing Titanium Dioxide, or Zinc Oxide, SPF50+, is a must, and use a wide brim hat as often as possible to obtain the best results possible.
How does the Indy Obagi C-RX system work?
"I recommend the Obagi C-RX system in conjunction with Triluma as one of the best solutions for melasma and hyperpigmentation!" -Dr. Phil Hong Nguyen, MD."
With Obagi-C Rx, you’re on your way to softer, smoother, radiant, and more even-looking skin. The Obagi-C Rx System offers the benefits of both prescription-strength 4% hydroquinone and Vitamin C to address the visible signs of skin damage and help obtain and maintain younger-looking skin.
