Skin Chemical Peels in Baton Rouge

What is Obagi skin peel?

One of the pioneers of skin regeneration is Dr. Zein Obagi , Dermtologist in Beverly Hills, California. He was one of the first to emphasize that it is necessary to stimulate both the epidermis and the dermis of the skin for optimal rejuvenation. This is done by exfoliating or removing the upper layer of the epidermis that increases the rate at which the deeper layer of the epidermis makes new skin. Simultaneously the dermis is also stimulated to produce new collagen and elastin. He developed the OBAGI BLUE PEEL to accomplish this regeneration. This is a moderate depth chemical peel that usesTCA(trichloroacectic acid) mixed with blue glyerine. This improves the safety over previous chemical peels by visually indicating the depth of the peel. The depth of the peel is determined by the number of applications of the solution.
