Obagi Nu Derm Review

 Updated On:

Overview

The official website for the Obagi Nu Derm anti-aging system tells us that the Obagi skin care system was created in 1988 by a Dr. Zeim E Obagi and a number of other skin care experts. There are a number of products in the Obagi Nu Derm system, and we are told that they have all been specially formulated to diminish the signs of aging on the skin. The official Obagi website tells us that the products in the Obagi Nu Derm skin care system can only be prescribed by a qualified Physician. We are also informed that the Obagi Nu Derm system has been designed to be used in conjunction with the Obagi Blue Peel. The Obagi Blue Peel is a chemical peel that can only be applied by a qualified Physician. The official website for the Obagi product line includes a search engine tool that allows you to locate a Physician who uses the Obagi range of skin care products.

Product Details

The anti-aging products in the Obagi Nu Derm system include a range of products from cleansers to toners, as well as sun faders and anti-aging creams for the eyes. We are told that the products in the Obagi Nu Derm system have been formulated to push fresh cells to the surface to enable the skin to regenerate. We are further told that the Obagi Nu Derm range of products will also reduce the pigmentation and discoloration of the skin as a result of age. According to the official website the products will also help to stimulate the production of collagen in the skin. Unfortunately the official website does not give a list of the ingredients in the various products in the Obagi Nu Derm range. This makes it rather difficult to assess the potential anti-aging properties of these products. Also, we are given no price details making it difficult to asses product value.

The Good

  • There is an official website for the Obagi Nu Derm range of anti-aging products.
  • The official website contains a search engine which allows you to locate a Physician.
  • There are contact details given which allow you to contact a representative of the company.

The Bad

  • There are no ingredient details given for the products in the Obagi Nu Derm range.
  • There are no price details given.
  • The products in the Obagi Nu Derm range can only be prescribed by a Physician.
  • We have no clinical evidence that the products in the Obagi Nu Derm range are superior to other anti-aging products available.

The Bottom Line

At the end of the day we would not choose the Obagi Nu Derm range over and above other skin care products, since we simply have not seen enough evidence that they are more effective than other anti-aging products available. We’re looking for a wrinkle treatment that really rises above the competition, and no clinical research data or manufacturer policies indicate that Obagi Nu Derm is that product.

After looking at literally hundreds of wrinkle reduction and prevention treatments, Hydroxatone is our top choice. This product offers customers a Risk-Free Trial, and contains all four of the most effective and exciting ingredients for reversing and preventing wrinkles: Matrxyl 3000®+ Argireline® + SPF + Hyuloronic Acid. No other formula combines these ingredients into one cream, and the Hydroxatone® website has testimonials from customers who have seen results. Argireline® and Matrixyl 3000® are two clinically proven and patented wrinkle-fighting peptides, while SPF provides sun protection and Hyuloronic Acid penetrates tissue to keep skin young and supple.

Optional – For Enhanced Results: Hydrolyze®

After looking at so many anti-aging treatments, we've seen that the delicate skin around the eyes can be a real problem area for many people. Dark circles can make you look years older, and for some people even a good night's sleep won't make them go away. That's why we were so excited to find Hydrolyze, which has been formulated by industry experts specifically as an under-eye treatment. The makers of Hydrolyze are so confident in their product that they offer potential users a Risk Free Trial so they can see the results for themselves. Hydrolyze contains the break-through ingredient Haloxyl, which has been shown to reduce under-eye discoloration between 40%-60% in a clinical case study. By offering consumers a way to erase the dark circles and wrinkles that often occur under the eyes, Hydrolyze is revolutionizing the skincare industry. >> Read more about Hydrolyze
