At Mulberry House Clinic, we have been offering the OBAGI Nu-Derm system for over 2 years now and we are extremely impressed with the results, along with our clients who are seeing the benefits for themselves. OBAGI Nu-Derm was first developed 20 years ago by Dr Zein Obagi, a dermatologist who practices in Beverley Hills.
We started off feeling a little reserved about recommending it too strongly but we now have a lot of experience with it in all skin types and take the view that it would almost be negligent of us not to make sure that you are aware of the benefits!
You should consider OBAGI if you would like:
- smoother, firmer skin
- healthier skin function
- brighter, fresher appearance
- significant reduction in pigmentation of virtually all types
- even skin colour
- improved fine lines and wrinkles
- improvement in acne or acne scarring
- reduced oiliness
- long term skin protection
- potential reduction in skin cancer risk
- improvement in skin quality and colour in the neck and décolleté regions .
These are big claims, but ones we are happy to make on the basis of the results we have seen (to hear what our client’s have to say click here). For even greater improvement in skin tightness, scarring or deep pigmentation there is the option of an OBAGI blue peel, but quite often the results with the skincare alone mean a peel is not necessary.
Improvement is usually noticeable within 2 weeks, with best results taking up to a few months.
Research has shown that Nu-Derm also improves the results of other cosmetic treatments - the degree of improvement and satisfaction with Botox, dermal fillers, laser treatments and Thermage were all greater in people who had been using OBAGI Nu-Derm.
If you are serious about improving and looking after your skin in the long term OBAGI will deliver.
Whether you are already using it or are new to the range Mulberry House Clinic is offering a £20 discount on purchase of a full pack of OBAGI Nu-Derm, Crx or Elastiderm Decolletage from now until the end of February. As prices will be increasing after this now is an excellent time to start your OBAGI programme.
There is now an extension to the cosmetic treatments available with Thermage, the leading radiofrequency treatment for skin tightening. It is now possible to create a tightening effect for the eyelids and area immediately around the eyes. This area is otherwise a difficult area to treat, and no other radiofrequency treatment offers this facility.
“Eyes by Thermage is a one-off treatment with no downtime afterwards,” says Dr Tanqueray. “It offers something that no other treatment can do, and can give very pleasing results. The area around the eyes is often a problem area with thin and lax skin. There are few treatment options for this, and all other effective cosmetic treatments result in several days of redness afterwards and often requires multiple treatments.”
Thermage treatment involves the transmission of radiofrequency energy into the skin via a sophisticated patented handpiece. The effect is to deliver heat to the deeper tissues while protecting the skin surface. The heat results in collagen contraction within the skin so that often some improvement is seen immediately. The main effects occur over the following 2 – 6 months, so that there is a natural and gradual improvement. Benefits from treatment are likely to last for up to 2 years.
Thermage can be useful in any age group, but is particularly beneficial for men and women between the ages of 35 and 55.
