Medium-Depth Prescription Only Peel by Obagi

At Verve Aesthetics, we are proud to offer the Obagi Medical Blue Peel, a medium-depth prescription-only peel renowned for its effectiveness and reliability in achieving beautiful skin transformations. This peel is specifically formulated to address a variety of skin concerns and is suitable for those looking for more significant improvements than what superficial peels can offer.

 

What is the Obagi Medical Blue Peel?

The Obagi Blue Peel is a chemically superior peel that achieves optimal skin resurfacing by using slow-acting trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to remove dead skin cells and stimulate the production of new ones. Formulated by internationally renowned dermatologist and chemical peel expert Dr. Zein Obagi, this peel is effective for:

– Moderate to severe sun damage
– Deeper wrinkles and lines
– Uneven skin tone and texture
– Acne scars and blemishes
– Hyperpigmentation and age spots
– Oily skin and enlarged pores

 

Benefits of the Obagi Medical Blue Peel

– Enhanced Skin Tone and Texture: This peel provides a noticeable improvement in skin tone and texture, leaving your skin smoother and more even.
– Reduction in Fine Lines and Wrinkles: By stimulating collagen production, the peel helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
– Improved Skin Clarity: The peel addresses hyperpigmentation and age spots, giving your skin a clearer, more youthful appearance.
– Effective Acne and Oil Imbalance Treatment: Ideal for oily skin, this peel helps correct oil imbalances, reducing acne and minimising enlarged pores.
– Comprehensive Skin Renewal: Layers of dead skin cells exfoliate and are replaced by healthier ones, allowing the skin’s own clarity and tightness to resurface.

 

The Treatment Process

1. Consultation: Your journey begins with a thorough consultation with one of our experienced practitioners. We assess your skin type, discuss your concerns, and determine if the Obagi Medical Blue Peel is the right choice for you.

2. Preparation: New Obagi users must complete a 12-week NuDerm Skin Transformation System, while seasoned users require at least 6 weeks of preparation with prescribed skincare.

3. Application: The Blue Peel is carefully applied to your skin, where it will begin to work on exfoliating and rejuvenating the targeted layers.

4. Aftercare: Post-treatment care is crucial. Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to support your skin’s healing process and maximise the benefits of the peel.

Treatment Duration

The treatment session lasts 30 minutes unless add-ons are selected. This includes calming and hydrating masks and can be combined with LED rejuvenation mask.

Treatment Mechanism

The Obagi Blue Peel RADIANCE® is a liquid exfoliation treatment that eliminates dead skin cells on the surface and stimulates the production of new skin, resulting in instantly fresher and tighter-looking skin.

Treatment Benefits

Experience clearer and tighter skin, reduced congestion, ideal for breakout-prone, dry, and uneven skin types, tighter pores, and decreased surface oil.

Discomfort Level

Expect a light tingling sensation and warmth during the treatment, which subsides quickly. The peel may have a strong odour.

Recommended Sessions

For optimal results, consider a course of 3 to 6 treatments spaced every 2 to 4 weeks, or use it as a standalone treatment for an instant pick-me-up!

Suitability Criteria

Avoid using acid or retinol-based skin products for at least 3 days before treatment, and refrain from skin-activating or exfoliating facial treatments, such as microdermabrasion and laser resurfacing, for at least 2 weeks prior. This treatment is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, those under 18, or individuals allergic to aspirin or salicylic acid.

Potential Side Effects

Expect dry skin around day 3 post-peel, with minimal to no downtime due to very light peeling. By day 4 or 5, enjoy beautifully glowing skin! Serious risks are minimal, with less than a 1% chance, but potential side effects include tingling and heat sensation during the peel, skin blanching, allergic reactions, post-treatment inflammation, and hyperpigmentation. Contraindications include allergies to aspirin or salicylic acid or any ingredients in the Blue Peel Radiance.
