Welcome to Obagi Skin, Dr. Zein E. Obagi's official website. Dr. Obagi is a world-renowned Board Certified dermatologist who has been in practice for over 30 years. Dr. Obagi's main office, The Obagi Skin Health Institute, is located in the prestigious Golden Triangle of Beverly Hills, California. Dr. Obagi is a leading authority in cosmetic dermatology and created Skin Health Restoration, and Skin Conditioning, the standards by which skin conditions can be successfully treated regardless of skin color or age.

Dr. Obagi, the quintessential maverick of dermatology merely intended to challenge the norms of conventional skin treatments. In doing so, he shattered the status quo, changed the ways that dermatologists and plastic surgeons treated skin, and managed to expose the risk-adverse culture to new ideas and opportunities. Fast-forward 25 years, Dr. Obagi's old ideas are no longer surprising, they have become mainstream. As the author of "The Obagi Skin Health Restoration & Rejuvenation", his name has become synonymous with results-oriented skin treatments around the world.

Obagi Nu-Derm®

In the early 80's, Dr. Obagi created what has since become the world's #1 professional skincare program for correcting complex problems such as acne, melasma (brown spots), fine lines, wrinkles, and scars. The Obagi Nu-Derm® system is used by more than 11,000 physicians throughout the world and is the most effective treatment for skin health restoration. Since then, new products and systems have been developed by Obagi Medical Products (obagi.com).

The Obagi® Blue Peel®

As an internationally renowned educator, scientist, and research physician, Dr. Obagi made ground-breaking strides in transforming skin by creating the first controllable chemical peel with observable depth signs. The Obagi® Medium Depth Peel and Obagi® Blue Peel enable practitioners to follow a standardized method for chemical peeling. Prior to Dr. Obagi inventing controlled depth chemical peels, many conditions were untreatable, and conventional chemical peels were risky. Now, for the first time, all different skin types including Asian, Hispanic, and African-American skin can be safely and effectively treated.

ZO Skin Health™

Dr. Obagi's newest product line, ZO Skin Health™ (zoskinhealth.com), provides individualized skin care products that focus on prevention and maintenance. ZO Skin Health™ bridges the gap between Dr. Obagi's therapeutic medical program and daily skin care, providing comprehensive anti-aging skin care unlike anything else available. ZO Skin Health™ fights the signs of aging with powerful ingredients and an enhanced delivery system. This marks a new direction in OTC skin care technology, furthering Dr. Obagi's reputation as the pioneer in skin health.

Zein Obagi's Ethical Practice

The internet is saturated with all kinds of websites selling medical and non-prescription products. These sites offer products, but fail to provide advice or information on how to properly utilize the products in order to benefit the skin. The goals of Dr. Obagi's Official Website are to ethically present Nu-Derm®, other Obagi® systems and ZO Skin Health™; educate consumers, and offer advice on the best course of treatment.

The popularity of Obagi products has resulted in the proliferation of imitation, knock-offs, and fake products, none of which can compare to the originals. There are several patented ingredients that are unique to Obagi® products and are fundamental to the success of the system. These patented ingredients can't be duplicated in the knock-offs, so they can't deliver the results Obagi products can. Only genuine products from Obagi® Medical Products and ZO Skin Health™ are available on this website, along with personal advice and comments directly from the Obagi Skin Health Institute.

Skin Disease requires medical consultation and proper treatment from a qualified health care professional or dermatologist. Delay of treatment may result in skin damage. If you have any skin care concerns, or have used any over the counter product for more than one month to treat a condition, and have seen no improvement, Dr. Obagi recommends you seek medical care.
