Obagi Nu-Derm® System
Over the years, your skin has been exposed to a number of environmental stressors, which cause damage that can reach the deepest layers of your skin. Photodamage, caused by the sun’s harmful rays, is the main cause of the fine lines, wrinkles and age spots that you may already see or you will eventually see on your face.
How it works
What are the effects of photodamage on your skin?
As your skin ages and is exposed to UVA and UVB rays, the turnover of skin cells slows significantly, throwing off the balance between the growth of healthy new cells and the sloughing of old, damaged cells. Additionally, collagen and elastin begin to break down, causing the skin to lose resilience resulting in fine lines, wrinkles and sagging. Daily exposure to UV light then accelerates this aging process and may cause uneven coloring.
Signs of photodamage and aging:
• Age spots
• Fine lines and wrinkles
• Rough skin
• Skin laxity
• Erythema (Redness)
• Sallowness (Complexion)
• Hyperpigmentation (Discoloration)
How does the Nu-Derm System transform your skin?
The Nu-Derm System penetrates below the surface of your skin to transform skin cell functions at the cellular level and correct the damage within.
Using a specific dose and frequency that’s recommended specifically by your skin care professional for your skin condition, the prescription-strength system exfoliates old skin leaving healthy, new skin that looks and acts younger and healthier.

Frequently asked questions
How quickly will I see results when using the Nu-Derm System?
Your individual prescribed protocol and frequency of use should be determined by your skin care professional, but you can typically expect visible improvements in four to six weeks.
Why is the Nu-Derm System sold exclusively by physicians?
The Nu-Derm System contains prescription-strength formulations that can only be sold through a licensed physician, such as a dermatologist or plastic surgeon
What is the difference between the Nu-Derm System and products purchased from department stores, drug stores and infomercials, etc?
The products in the Nu-Derm System are clinically proven, prescription-strength, ingredients that work at the cellular level to improve your skin cell function. Products purchased from a retail store are cosmetic-based products that do not contain prescription-strength ingredients.
Can the Nu-Derm System be used if I will be in the sun (i.e. at sporting events or at the beach)?
Keeping in mind that extended sun exposure damages the skin, it is suggested that you avoid prolonged sun exposure without protection. While on the system, you can participate in normal outdoor activity, however, your skin may be sensitive to the sun and heat. It is very important to always wear a sunscreen, like the Healthy Skin Protection SPF 35 and reapply sun protection every few hours while exposed to the sun.
Why should I use all the products in the Nu-Derm System?
Each product in the Nu-Derm System is specifically designed to work together to provide you with the best results. When used as a system, the prescription-strength ingredients work to effectively balance the pH level of your skin and penetrate into the layers of your skin for superior results. Your skin care professional will guide you in using the system based on their assessment of your needs

ELASTIderm® Décolletage
These days your skin is aging a lot more quickly. The sun and environmental elements can take their toll, leaving behind hyperpigmentation (discoloration), age spots, freckles, fine lines and wrinkles. And although you may have diligently maintained the skin on your face for years, you may not have paid as much attention to the skin on your chest and neck, also known as your décolletage.
The skin on your décolletage is particularly vulnerable to these visible signs of aging, since it tends to be thinner, less moisturized, and often overlooked in the sun protection regimen. The result can be a harsh contrast between the youthful, protected skin on your face and the discolored, damaged skin on your chest.
So, take steps today to revitalize your décolletage skin with a regimen specially formulated to reveal a more radiant all-over glow in this highly visible area.
How It Works
The ELASTIderm Décolletage System consists of 2 patent-pending technologies using Penetrating Therapeutics™ that are clinically proven to help restore healthy skin:
The Skin Lightening Complex
- Formulated with 4%, hydroquinone, a treatment well known for reducing hyperpigmentation (discoloration) and age spots on the skin
The Wrinkle Reducing Lotion
- Formulated with ELASTIderm’s Restorative Elasticity Complex
- Contains a unique bi-mineral complex to help replenish elasticity and build collagen for increased skin strength and resilience
- Includes malonic acid to help stimulate the production of healthy skin cells
Used together, this clinically proven therapeutic system diminishes the signs of aging, helping revitalize vulnerable skin, contributing to more flawless, youthful-looking skin.
