The Obagi Nu-Derm System
is a medical-grade skincare regime designed to transform skin at the cellular level, particularly targeting signs of aging, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, and melasma.
🌿 What Is It?
The Obagi Nu-Derm System includes a step-by-step routine that works to:
- Improve skin tone and texture
- Reduce dark spots and melasma
- Minimise fine lines and wrinkles
- Brighten dull, sun-damaged skin
🔬 How It Works:
The system uses active ingredients like:
- Hydroquinone (in prescription versions) – a skin-lightening agent that reduces pigmentation
- Tretinoin (Retin-A, prescribed separately) – stimulates cell turnover and collagen
- AHAs (alpha hydroxy acids) – exfoliate and smooth the skin
These products penetrate the skin deeply, accelerating skin renewal and helping to reveal fresh, healthier skin underneath.
💼 Typical Products in the Full Nu-Derm Kit:
1. Gentle Cleanser or Foaming Gel
2. Toner
3. Clear (hydroquinone-based pigment corrector)
4. Exfoderm or Exfoderm Forte (exfoliating lotion)
5. Blender (used with tretinoin)
6. Hydrate (moisturiser)
7. Sun Shield SPF 50
⏳ How Long Does It Take?
- The full transformation takes 16–24 weeks.
- Skin may go through a reaction phase in the first few weeks: redness, dryness, flaking — a sign it’s working.
🛑 Not Suitable If:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding (due to hydroquinone or tretinoin)
- On certain acne treatments or with highly sensitive skin (speak to a medical professional first)
✅ Best For:
- Melasma
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
- Fine lines and photoaging
- Uneven tone and texture
