Pros:

This is the ONLY product(s) that has ever made a difference in my skin! I love the Nu Derm system!!

Cons:

Irritation and peeling the first 4 weeks

I would recommend this to anyone with acne scars and blemishes...b/c it helped me with both!!! I am so glad to have found something that actually delievers results. It might seem expensive BUT it works out to about $10 bucks/week for EVERYTHING...not bad at all ;)

Pros:

My acne is gone and smooth skin tone and lighter scar, afforable

Cons:

lots of peeling in the begining, sensitive to sun

I have acne from late teen to 33. Obagi system is next best thing after acutaine. I use obagi clenziderm in the morning and obagi clear and tretion at night. I purchased the discount online store, [link removed] and only cost me $90 per clenziderm set at the first time and $70 afer I join free memebership. I love the result.

Pros:

Gets rid of hyperpigmentation, clogged pores.

Cons:

None. except for the price if that matters to you.

I have ethnic skin with the curse of hyperpigmentation. A inexperienced facialist damaged my skin by extracting my pores and I was left with a really ugly dark scar on my face. Nothing worked.I finally went to a dermatologist who specializes in ethnic skin and he recommended the Obagi Nuderm. I, too, was skeptical but I finally caved in and boy am I glad I did. I use the entire system and within 3 WEEKS my hyperpigmentation is gone, the scar has almost faded, my pores are cleaned and my skin just glows. I think that the Obagi Nuderm is best for ethnic aging skin as it also lessens wrinkles. It is pricey but the products should last many months. I will not waste my money the way I have in the past with products that just do not work. You can purchase the Obagi Nuderm products online but I suggest that you get a recommendation first from a reputable dermatologist. I had no side effects. I'll make you sun sensitive. I wear the suncreen in the Obagi Nuderm as well and no breakouts. SUPER!

Pros:

STOPS stubborn cystic acne! Moisturizes your skin; Repairs the damaged layer; Peels away deadskin cells; Evens out discoloration & gives you a new life! Just follow the easy day & nightly routine & watch it develop awesome skin! Great for ASIAN skin!

Cons:

Minor peeling and redness...Like all products, it may or may not work for everyone! But after suffering from acne for over 15 years, what else was I gonna lose?! Just try it & let the product speak for itself!

Like everyone else suffering from acne(especially adult cystic acne) at 32 I thought that I would just have to live with bad skin for life. Since my teens I have tried over the counter medication, PROACTIVE, MURAD & a lot of pills. The worst 1 was probably MURAD that made me breakout into double/triple headed cystic acne at a time(EWW!)& just darkened my face with scars. Getting a new job & moving to a new city, it was tough for me to "celebrate" with such embarrasing skin. Then an esthetician recommended OBAGI. At 1st of course I was very hesitant as it sounded too good to be true(like most products). Plus the cost is no joke! After some research on it, I got convinced to give it a try. After 4 weeks I immediately saw the difference. The joy of waking up every morning & not finding new acne is just priceless. Best of all, it peeled away the scars and gave me a better looking skin. It's been over 6 months now & my skin never looked better. I totally recommend it! Best of luck!

Pros:

Beautiful, Glowing, Radiant, Sexy, Skin!

Cons:

Drying, and peeling for the first 3 weeks

I have tried several different products since I was 16 years old. Now I am 21, and I can honestly say that I have found the solution for acne from my own personal experience. Obagi nu derm is great! Yes, this first month is very harsh, but the results are 100% worth it. I never thought that there was a product that worked so well. Obagi nu derm is not only for acne, but also for scars, hyper pigmentation, freckles, and wrinkles.

Pros:

This is the only thing that has worked for my hormonal acne.

Cons:

Extremely dry and flaky skin for the first month. Lots of peeling and redness. Sensitivity to the sun. DO NOT USE EXFODERM FORTE. IT CAUSED MY SKIN TO BREAK OUT MORE. I use all the products except Exfoderm.

This is the only program that has worked for my hormonal acne. I had beautiful clear skin all my life until I hit the age 22. I started getting cystic acne in my cheeks and my jawline as well as the side of the face right next to my eyes. I have tried EVERYTHING. Spent thousands of dollars for several years. Nothing cleared up my skin like Obagi Nu-Derm. However, you really have to stick with the program because for the first month your skin will get extremely worse. It's very uncomfortable as it causes excessive peeling and dryness. The acne gets even worse and you break out everywhere. But if you stick it through, you will start seeing results after one month. I stopped using Obagi Nu Derm after a 3 month program and had clear skin for another 1 year with maintenance. When I stopped using the products, I started breaking out severely again. Now I am back on the program along with Spironolactone and YAZ. Am starting to see results again.

Pros:

Lightes skin, gets rid of blemishes and acne, no more need for makeup

Cons:

Lots of peeling and redness in the beginning, expensive

Obagi Nuderm: This product should be used as a last resort because a) it's expensive and b) it takes a while. I recommend this for people who have "tried everything." If you have mild acne and blemishes, try something you can find at CVS like Neutragena. For people who complain that it makes your skin red and peely, that's exactly what it states on the box before you use it. That's to be expected for it to work. It makes your skin peel then lightens your skin underneath and smooths it out.

Pros:

It is a miracle worker. It's expensive to start the program but the lotions last a really long time (I've only had to replace the toner in over 1 year). It has cured my adult acne 100%, I don't need to wear makeup/concealer before going out any more!

Cons:

Expensive start-up cost, can be drying.

If you are in Miami, go to Dr. Weinman, he really changed my life. [link removed]>The obagi system worked wonders for me, the transformation is phenomenal and extremely quick. It's expensive to start the program but when you break down the cost per bottle and how long it last, it's actually very reasonable. It can be drying, your physician can help you fine tune the best way to combine the products for milder results. In my case I was using the nu-derm system along with some other products and doing chemical peels. Now I'm fully cured, moved to a new city and the new dermatologist I consulted complemented me on my skin! I'm currently only using the cleanser and toner along with a moisturizer. My plan consisted of: Morning: Obagi Cleanser and Toner, Clendagel (not obagi) and 3xWeek a mix of 50/50 Exfoderm and Tolereen Evening: Cleanser, Toner, Alpha beta toner (non obagi), clendagel and 5x per week 50/50 Action and retin-a

Pros:

Worked in less than 3 weeks! Obagi Clenziderm not Obagi Nu-Derm. Lightened scars,less breakout,acne dries faster. Affordable and last!

Cons:

Your face will be dried and red for a couple of days. Makeup can eliminate the redness.

I love this product. It worked so fast and the result are soo great. I use to wear heavy makeup to cover my imperfection, but after 1 month of this product Im bearly putting any one! I'm seeing impovment everyday and so far I have alot of positive experience with this product. I think I found the product that I can stick with and know that it will work! If you want a product that will work at a decent price for acne usE OBAGI CLENZIDERM! I have used the Obaggi Nuderm before, It worked good, but the obagi acne line worked better when it comes to acne!
