Obagi Blue Peel System
If you're looking to accelerate your Transformation and interested in a
chemical peel procedure, then the Obagi Blue Peel System may be right
for you. Obagi Blue Peel is conducted in your Physician's office. Prior to
and after the procedure, your Physician should recommend use of the
Obagi Nu-Derm System.
How it works!
Unlike common alpha-hydroxy peels or at-home procedures, the Obagi
Blue Peel puts control of your treatment in professional hands. Based
on your individual needs and skin condition, your skin professional
determines the strength of the peel.
The Obagi Blue Peel uses Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) as the active
ingredient mixed with the patented Blue Base from Obagi. Your skin
professional will apply the Obagi Blue Peel based on your level of
damage and your desired level of Transformation.
What to expect
The Obagi Blue Peel procedure takes less than an hour in
your Physician's office and does not typically require sedation. Your
skin professional will apply the Blue Peel typically to your face and
neck. A mild burning sensation will occur that generally lasts only a
few minutes. Then you may experience a bluish tint to your skin
that usually washes off in 12 to 24 hours. Your skin professional will
advise you on how many peels are needed to give you the desired
result.
Depending on the strength and depth following the procedure, you
will experience light swelling. Within two to three days, your skin will
begin to peel. This peeling continues over the next several days. By
the seventh to tenth day, your skin should be healed.
Once your skin has completely recovered and is finished peeling, you
will notice a visible improvement in your complexion. Your skin's
appearance should continue to improve for the next four to six
weeks, becoming firmer, clearer, smoother, healthier and more
youthful looking.
WARNINGS: The procedure for and use of TCA can only be
performed by a Physician or if permitted by law, a properly trained
specialist working under a Physician’s supervision. Proper medical
knowledge is essential to the performance of any TCA peel. The
treating Physician is responsible for informing a patient about
potential medical risks and complications.
