I am, actually, just started, Obagi NuDerm this morning, and wondered if any one else is in the beginning stage.

I've decided to try Zo Skin Health by Zein Obagi instead.

Thanks, Havana for the links. I had missed the NuDerm Diary thread.

And, thanks for the welcome!

Skincare, I was interested in Zo too, but there is an Obagi Medi Spa a mile from my house, so I decided to go with Obagi. I like all the support I can get, and I really like the aesthetician.

I've been using Nuderm for about 4 weeks now and am very pleased with it. I bought it at a spa but have since found it cheaper online and have already ordered my next set.

Thanks for the reply. There was a very active thread about Obagi, but has been dormant for about 11 months.

I wonder if we will ever get over the red and flakey stage and get just nice skin? I like what is happening to my skin in the first week, but do not want to be red and flaky for the rest of my life.

I understand. From what I know, Obagi NuDerm and the others Re see formations and behind on newer studies and technology. I love Obagi NuDerm SPF 50 (thanks to a EDS member help)

I want to try ZO Skin Health program with a processional observing so that I'm not damaging my skin.

I hope to book an appointment in a couple of weeks.

fa7505 - I used the obagi line for over a year and was red and flaky for 6 months. My sister was too. Once we got over that stage our skin was awesome. I had to quit using it because of getting pregnant - not sure if it would've hurt but didn't want to take the chance. I have light sensitve skin so i've heard people who aren't sensitive or fair complexion can get over the red and flaky stage within about 4 or 5 months. HTH!

I have ust returned from a visit to my Obagi trained esthetician, after using a full course of Obagi NuDerm for two weeks.

She suggested that the reason some have redness and peeling for a long period of time is because they don't go full force into the treatment. They use it on alternate days, etc. They may not be as red or flaky as I have been, therefore it will take longer.

I plan on continuing using the full treatment as I have been, and hopefully, and according to the esthetician, I should be over the worst by the end of the next seven days. Some flaking will occur, but not to the extent that it has been. I can handle that.

fa7505 - would you let us know?! I would love to see if what your esthetician said is right. i was red and flaky for almost 6 months, maybe 5 but I wasn't consistently using it everyday. I would love to get back to using it again esp before i get married this summer.

Rilee, I have now used NuDerm for 3 full weeks and 1 day. I use the entire program and have not missed a day.

Today, my face is looking very nice, with very little flaking or peeling. It is a bit pink, but I do feel that it looks much better than it did three week ago. Kind of a glow.
