Obagi Blue Peel Review

 Updated On:

Overview

The anti-aging product Obagi Blue Peel is in fact a chemical peel that can only be applied by a qualified Physician. There is a detailed official website for the Obagi skin care range of products that tells us that the Obagi Blue Peel has been formulated to be used in conjunction with the Obagi Nu Derma System. We are told that the major active ingredient in the Obagi Blue Peel product is a patented ingredient that is a base form with Trichloroacetic acid.

Product Details

The official website tells us that the Obagi Blue Peel has been formulated to be used in conjunction with your Physician as part of an anti-aging skin program. The manufacturers of the Obagi Blue Peel claim that it can diminish signs of aging such as lines, wrinkles and sagging skin. According to the official website your chosen Physician should take less than an hour to complete the Obagi Chemical Peel process. The official website warns that during the process of the chemical peel you may experience a burning sensation on your face, and that you will also experience light swelling and a bluish tint on your face that will wash off after twelve to twenty four hours.

We are further told that after two to three days your skin will begin to start peeling and that after a period of seven to ten days your skin will be healed. The official Obagi website contains a search engine whereby you can locate a Physician who uses the Obagi skin care system and is able to carry out an Obagi Blue Peel. Evidently the cost of having an Obagi Blue Peel will vary according to the Physician that you choose. Chemical Peels are not suitable for everyone and particularly those who suffer from sensitive skin. Immediately after undergoing a chemical peel you can also experience increased sensitivity to UV rays.

The Good

  • There is a detailed official website for the Obagi Chemical Peel.
  • The website includes a search engine which allows you to locate a Physician.
  • There are contact details on the official website should you wish to contact a representative of the company.

The Bad

  • There are side effects to the Obagi Blue Peel.
  • Chemical Peels are not suitable for those who have sensitive skin.
  • The Obagi Chemical Peel is not the only chemical peel available.
  • There is no clinical evidence that the Obagi Blue Peel is more effective than other chemical peels available.

The Bottom Line

At the end of the day chemical peels are not suitable for everyone’s skin and a good Physician will be able to advise you whether or not a chemical peel is an appropriate treatment for your skin type. If a chemical peel is appropriate for you, the Obagi Blue Peel could be just what you’re looking for. Again, your dermatologist knows best, and there are certainly irritation risks associated chemical peels in general.
