OBAGI Skincare Treatment
Your skincare routine today will determine the future health and radiance of your skin for years to come.
Skin Health
Every day your skin is exposed to the damaging effects of free radicals from the sun’s UV radiation, pollution, stress, and your own body’s metabolism.
While this damage cannot be avoided, there is much you can do to protect and defend against it. Taking good care of your skin daily can prevent or reduce issues such as deep wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, and more. Your skin is in a constant state of renewal and has complex nutritional needs, which are best provided by a topical skin care regime alongside good internal nutrition.
A personalised consistent skincare routine is vital
Your skin type and the factors affecting your skin health are unique. Customise your routine to suit your needs and be consistent – it takes time (often months) for your skin’s nourishment to be replenished and show the results of your efforts. A consistent routine will maintain the radiance as outer skin cells shed to reveal the fresh lower layers.
Support your skin from within
The best skin care takes a dual approach focusing on your internal health as well as your skin creams. While topical products can nourish and protect the skin externally, your diet feeds the skin internally with vitamins, minerals, and essential fatty acids. Your diet may need adjusting and you may benefit from supplements tailored to your skin’s needs.
