In order to see that the Obagi Blender cream works to the maximum extent, the company stipulates certain rules to be followed strictly. Following these rules would result in 100% successful functioning of the cream. These rules are as follows:
First, check up with your doctor. Just before starting with the Obagi Blender, you should meet your Skin Health Counselor. Once the treatment starts, it is also advisable to visit him once every week, for the first 3 weeks. You should also tell him how much of the Obagi Blender, Obagi Clear and Tretinoin you are using and in what measure.
Judging by the progress you have made, your counselor will decide on your further course of treatment. Once the first phase is over, he will ask to meet you again on a later date. Always remember to get your counselor's advice before using the Obagi Blender and never miss your counselor's appointment.
The restoration process starts quickly enough with your Obagi Nu-Derm Blender. So if you need to attend a special occasion for which you want to look your best, you should stop using the Exforderm, Clear, Blender and Tretinoin some 3-4 days before going for the function. You can always get back to the skin care Obagi treatment once the event is over.
If irritation continues, immediately contact your counselor and discontinue treatment if he advises it. You can resume it after he gives the green signal for it.
If you are exposing your skin to the heat: the skin is most sensitive to the treatment in the first phase of treatment. There is a good chance that the skin will turn red for the first few days. So, while going out, Obagi recommends that you wear the Sunfader several times a day, so as to protect it from the detrimental forces outside.
Last words will be about the flexibity or treatment. If the skin reacts too sharply to Obagi Blender, you can adjust the amount to suit your skin. In case your counselor feels you can take it, he will ask you to increase the amount of application of the cream on your skin.
