What to Expect
The Blue Peel is a quick and simple procedure for you to administer that does not typically require sedation. Application typically to the face and neck takes about 20 minutes, depending on the number of coats applied. Your patients can expect a burning sensation that lasts only a few minutes and a bluish tint to their skin that usually washes off in 12 to 24 hours.
Following the procedure, patients will experience light swelling. Within two to three days, their skin will begin to peel. This peeling continues over the next several days. By the seventh to tenth day, their skin should be healed and start looking younger and healthier.
Once their skin has completely recovered and is finished peeling, your patients will notice a visible improvement in their complexion. Their skin's appearance will continue to improve for the next four to six weeks, becoming firmer, clearer, smoother, healthier and more youthful looking.
Pre/Post Obagi Blue Peel
The Obagi Blue Peel is used in conjunction with the Obagi Nu-Derm System to enhance the effects of the peel and to sustain healthier, younger-looking skin.
For best results, patients should use the Obagi Nu-Derm System 6 to 12 weeks before the procedure and then continue back on the Obagi Nu-Derm System once skin is healed after the procedure. |
