Pros:

NOTE: this review is for OBAGI NU-DERM. not clenziderm.
hydroquinone does fade scars

Cons:

lots of harsh chemicals clogged pores, tretinoin made my skin super sensitive, and after a month i was breaking out all over the place

Obagi nu-derm is filled with harsh, pore-clogging chemicals to rip the skin off your face. this can work for

started with mild acne. i followed the treatment plan and slowly got more and more small pimples. a month later, my face was covered in small whiteheads, blackheads, and milia - it was the worst it had ever been. the horrible thing was, my skin was so thin and sensitive that every clogged pore left a scar. ARGH!! Maybe my skin was supposed to get worse before it got better, but that was a LOT worse. and what's the point of getting better if i'm just going to be covered in scars in the end?? I kinda think obagi nu-derm is a scam. they charge $65 for a 2-oz bottle of hydroquinone ("bleaching cream") that you can get for about $15 elsewhere. And then $70 for a little tube of tretinoin that was $10 from my pharmacy!!

Pros:

It was fun to get the stuff in the mail.

Cons:

It caused .25" layers of skin to peal off at a time, especially around my nose and mouth. It didn't do a thing for my acne...may have made it worse. Didn't help my melasma either.

Not good for people with acne.

Pros:

it helped even out my skin tone a bit

Cons:

made me break out in the beginning. started getting pimples where i never had them before. caused more scarring because skin becomes so thin and sensitive with the million products they have you use..

i thought this was going to do it for me. i thought my skin would clear up and my skin tone would be uniform. it did help fade some spots faster than leaving it alone.. but i really regret buying and using the products. they caused me to breakout consistently. i went through about 8 weeks on this stuff and it never got better. i dont recommend!!
