Hi all
I wonder if someone can offer some advice please. I have been on Obagi Nu Derm for about 2 weeks now and am peeling well and most of my skin is looking better already.
However I have been avoiding using Exfoderm in the area under my eyes because it says to avoid the eyelid area. Trouble is I am not getting the same peeling / good results in that area, which is one of the main places (crepie/wrinkley skin) that I wanted to improve.
Question is, can I use exfoderm in that area so long as I don't go tooo close to the edge of my eyelid? Any advice much appreciated.
Many thanks  |

| I am using the nuderm system and was wondering if i can put Retin-A micro .4 under my eyes to help with very fine lines. Should i combine the retin-A micro with the blender or the clear at night? |

| When I did the Obagi Nu Derm regimen I put all of the products under my eyes, Exfoderm, Clear, Retin-A, Blender, and everything else. After my 18 weeks my undereye area was the most improved !! Just be careful in the beginning and listen to your skin. If it gets to irritated back off around the eye area. I got amazing results with these products around my eyes. |

| I agree about listening to your skin. I have been using the Obagi line for many years. Personally, I can't use it on my lids. It causes peeling and for me discoloration. But if you start using it a few times a week in that area, you skin will tell you when you're doing too much. |

Thanks for your responses - I think I will start using it under my eyes and see how it goes.
Thanks again  |

I had the same fears when I first started (7 weeks ago). After reading posts here, I decided to try it under the eyes and on the eyelids. You will notice a difference. It will start to tighten around the edge of your eyes where you have the crows feet. I'm hoping that it will improve the fine lines under my eyes more than what it has so far. |
