Obagi Nu-Derm® System
Over time, your skin is repeatedly exposed to stress from sunlight, pollution, and everyday environmental factors. These factors affect not only the skin’s surface but also deeper layers, gradually contributing to fine lines, uneven tone, redness, and loss of firmness.
The Obagi Nu-Derm® System works differently from many skincare products. Rather than offering surface-level improvement alone, it supports cellular skin renewal, helping correct existing damage and encourage healthier skin function over time.
Ms Tzafetta may recommend the Obagi Nu-Derm® System as part of a structured skin health plan, particularly where sun damage, uneven pigmentation or early ageing changes affect skin quality.
What the Obagi Nu-Derm® System aims to improve
A tailored course using the Nu-Derm® System may help to:
- reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
- improve overall skin texture and smoothness
- support healthy skin cell turnover
- minimise signs of premature ageing
- reduce uneven pigmentation and age spots
- calm redness (erythema)
- reduce acne flares
- improve skin elasticity and resilience
- support clearer, brighter-looking skin
Results develop gradually, reflecting changes within the skin rather than a temporary surface effect.
How the Nu-Derm® System works
As skin ages and experiences repeated ultraviolet exposure, natural cell turnover slows. Old, damaged cells remain on the surface longer, while the production of healthy new cells reduces. At the same time, collagen and elastin fibres weaken, contributing to lines, laxity and uneven tone.
The Obagi Nu-Derm® System uses a carefully structured sequence of products to support exfoliation, stimulate renewal and improve overall skin behaviour. This process encourages damaged skin to shed and healthier skin to emerge, helping the skin function more effectively over time.
Ms Tzafetta and her team will guide you on how to use the system correctly and safely, ensuring it suits your skin type and condition.
What to expect during treatment
Nu-Derm® treatment progresses in phases. As your skin responds, you may notice redness, dryness or flaking in the early stages. These effects reflect active skin renewal and usually settle as the skin adjusts.
Visible improvements often begin within 4 to 6 weeks, though timing varies depending on skin type, the level of damage, and daily product use. More significant changes continue to develop over several months.
Consistency matters. Following the programme as advised plays an important role in achieving and maintaining results.
A personalised approach to skin health
Ms Tzafetta approaches skin treatment with the same care and precision as surgical planning. She considers skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure and long-term skin goals before recommending a medical-grade skincare programme.
The Obagi Nu-Derm® System may be used on its own or alongside other non-surgical treatments, depending on what will best support your skin health.
Obagi Nu-Derm® FAQs
How long does the Obagi Nu-Derm® programme take?
Most people use the system for several months. Early changes often appear within 4 to 6 weeks, while deeper improvements continue over 3 to 6 months.
Will my skin peel or become red?
Mild redness, dryness and flaking are common, especially early on. These effects usually settle as the skin adapts. Ms Tzafetta will guide you on how to manage these changes safely.
Can I continue working and socialising during treatment?
Yes. Most people continue normal daily activities. Skin changes are usually manageable, although you may wish to adjust timing around important events.
Is the Nu-Derm® System suitable for all skin types?
The system suits many skin types, but not everyone. Ms Tzafetta will assess your skin and medical history before recommending treatment.
Do I need to avoid the sun during treatment?
Sun protection is essential. Daily use of high-factor sunscreen forms a key part of the programme and helps protect newly resurfaced skin.
Can Obagi Nu-Derm® help acne?
The system may help reduce acne flares by improving skin turnover and reducing congestion. Results vary depending on acne type and severity.
Are the results permanent?
Results last longer with ongoing maintenance and good sun protection. Without continued care, skin may gradually return to its previous patterns.
Can Obagi Nu-Derm® be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Ms Tzafetta may recommend combining Nu-Derm® with wrinkle-relaxation treatments, dermal fillers (injectable volume treatments), or chemical peels when appropriate.
Who oversees Obagi Nu-Derm® treatment?
Ms Tzafetta oversees skin treatment planning and ensures that recommendations align with your overall skin health and long-term goals.
When should I consider Obagi Nu-Derm®?
You may consider the system if sun damage, uneven tone, redness, or early-ageing changes affect your confidence and you want a structured, medical-grade skincare approach.
