The
Obagi Program is
a flexible program. The Restoration process is the one your skin will
undergo on its path to health. Your skin will become smooth, firm
with an even, healthy tone. It will function properly and build its
tolerance to environmental aggression.
These
are three main protocols:
- Standard.
Good correction with minimal stimulation. Longest time to achieve
full benefits. Lowest level of reaction.
- Moderately
Aggressive.
Very good stimulation and correction. Takes longer to achieve full
benefits. Less reaction to creams.
- Very
Aggressive. A very fast and strong approach. Provides
maximum stimulation and correction in the minimum amount of time.
Highest degree of reaction.
Two additional
protocols may be indicated to ease highly sensitive skin into the
program:
- Gradual.
A very gentle approach for very sensitive skin. Correction and Stimulation
are done twice a week and increase frequency as skin becomes more
tolerant.
- Flexible.
Recommended for patients who need to stop occasionally or move from
stronger protocols for short periods of time.
Your
physician has determined the most appropriate protocol for you based
on expert evaluation of your skin's needs and respect for your lifestyle
and expectations. The healthier your skin is at the beginning of the
Restoration process and the more aggressive the treatment, the faster
your skin regains skin health.
