SkinMedica® products aim to let each and every patient enjoy naturally radiant skin through a customized skincare regimen. The SkinMedica product line utilizes the skin's own healing abilities to restore elasticity and regenerate the health of the skin, creating a smooth, youthful appearance. These products help patients achieve and maintain even, soft, blemish-free, moisturized and vibrant skin.
SkinMedica products can be used on any skin type or condition, including the most sensitive skin. Their wide range of products allows each and every patient to develop a personalized regimen to enhance their individual skin and produce the best possible results. Our doctors are fully knowledgeable on all SkinMedica products, and can help you decide which products are right for you.
Some of the products offered by SkinMedica include hydrating and rejuvenative moisturizers, eye cream, cleansers, toners, sunscreen and a wide range of anti-aging and acne products. Many of these products include sun protection and antioxidant ingredients as well. Each SkinMedica product is designated for a certain skin type, including normal, dry, oily and acne-prone skin, and there is a SkinMedica solution for all of these types.
Known as The Skin Care Makeup, the Jane Iredale line is so safe and beneficial to use that it is recommended by plastic surgeons and dermatologists throughout the world.
Jane Iredale's Skin Care Makeup combines the most up-to-date colors with skin-care benefits that conventional makeups can only envy:
Jane's line is a highly-sophisticated blend of minerals and pigments that are micro-pulverized, using proprietary technology and processes to form microscopic flat particles. These particles overlap each other on the skin to form a filter that allows the skin to breathe and function normally while still protecting it from air-borne pollutants. The staying power of the minerals is so great that they rarely need a touch-up during the day. And because these silky-feeling powders are water resistant, they won't crease or smear even during the most strenuous exercise.
These state-of-the-art minerals are available in so many shades that there's one for every complexion no matter what the ethnicity
Obagi® Medical: A Leader in Skin Health
Headquartered in Long Beach, California, Obagi Medical Products, Inc., is a specialty pharmaceutical company that develops, markets and sells, and is the leading provider of, proprietary topical aesthetic and therapeutic clinically-proven skin care systems in the physician-dispense market. The systems are designed to prevent and improve the most common and visible skin disorders in adult skin. The foundation of the company began in 1988 with the creation of the Obagi Nu-Derm® System, developed by leading skin care experts. In 1997 the company officially began operations as Obagi Medical Products, Inc.
Over the years, the company has developed clinically-proven skin health products and systems primarily for the dermatology, plastic surgery and related aesthetic markets. Using its Penetrating Therapeutics™ technologies, the company’s products are designed to improve penetration of prescription and cosmetic agents across the skin barrier for common and visible skin conditions in adult skin including premature aging, photodamage, hyperpigmentation (irregular or patchy discoloration of the skin), acne, sun damage, rosacea and soft tissue deficits, such as fine lines and wrinkles.
The Obagi Nu-Derm System consists of topical products, which when used as a system result in substantial improvement to many of these skin related conditions. The company continues to maintain its position as a leader in skin health by having launched several successful new systems of products, including the Obagi-C® Rx System which is the first prescription-strength Vitamin C and hydroquinone system; the Condition & Enhance™ System, developed to enhance the results of physician delivered surgical and non-surgical procedures; the ELASTIderm® family of products, a one of a kind treatment developed to restore skin elasticity and collagen production, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and décolletage; CLENZIderm M.D.™ Acne Therapeutic Systems to treat and prevent acne at it’s root; and most recently the Rosaclear™ System, developed specifically for the treatment and prevention of the signs and symptoms of rosacea.
Because Obagi® Systems and products contain prescription-strength formulations, the systems are only available through physicians, primarily dermatologists, plastic surgeons, medical spas and other skin care and medical specialists.
NeoCutis® products are unlike any other anti-aging products. Unlike other products that focus on collagen production and stimulation, NeoCutis products nourish aged skin the same way that wounded skin is treated. These products focus on maintaining high levels of protein in the skin. NeoCutis products were originally designed to promote scar-less wound healing.
Today, many NeoCutis products focus on anti-aging and restoring a youthful appearance to the face through high-quality products that hydrate the skin and reduce the appearance of wrinkles. It is believed that aged skin has the same basic needs as wounded skin, in that growth must be stimulated and managed in order to achieve the desired results. NeoCutis provides these growth factors, along with cytokines and antioxidants through a mixture called PSP®, or Processed Skin Cell Proteins.
PSP is found in NeoCutis Bio-restorative Skin Cream, one of the company's most popular products, which is available in the form of an eye cream, hydrogel and day cream. NeoCutis products also include protection against UVA/UVB rays. Following a complete NeoCutis regimen can help drastically improve the appearance of aged or photoaged skin.
M.D. FORTÉ® is a comprehensive skin care line featuring products with alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) to stimulate the exfoliation and moisturization of the skin, two processes that tend to decrease with age and sun damage. These products will help maintain the smooth, full appearance of your youthful skin, and also help reverse any premature signs of aging.
M.D. FORTÉ® products use glycolic acid, a form of AHA, to gently peel away dry, dead layers of skin to reveal a smooth, flawless complexion. Unlike comparable products, M.D. FORTÉ® products contain two to three times higher levels of glycolic acid to deliver highly effective results. Patients often notice their skin feeling softer and smoother after just a few days, with visible results beginning after two to six weeks. You may experience mild tingling when using these products, but most patients are not bothered by this sensation.
As a prestigious line of skin care products, M.D. FORTÉ® products are available only from a doctor. All of our doctors are knowledgeable about M.D. FORTÉ® products, and can recommend the appropriate products for your individual skin in order to achieve the best possible results. Some of the products offered by M.D. FORTÉ® include cleansers, rejuvenators, moisturizers, sunscreen, and the ability to combine several products in a complete system known as the M.D. FORTÉ® Core System.
Kinerase® is a complete skin care line with products effectively proven to improve the effects of aging, sun damage, blotchiness and roughness. Kinerase products are made with kinetin, a natural extract that prevents plant leaves from drying out and withering. When applied to the skin, kinetin improves the skin's ability to retain moisture and also reduces the appearance of wrinkles and other fine lines. Kinerase products are safe for almost all patients to use, as they are hypoallergenic, dye-free, non-comedogenic and fragrance-free.
Patients can achieve the best results from Kinerase products by using a skincare regimen designed specifically for you by one of our experienced doctors. Kinerase regimens include products to cleanse, tone, repair, moisturize and protect the skin. Results of these products are usually visible after less than three months.
There is a wide range of Kinerase products designed to treat and maintain the health of all skin types, including even the most sensitive skin, with specific products targeted towards dry, normal, oily and acne-prone skin. Kinerase products are also often recommended for patients before or after skin treatments such as microdermabrasion, chemical peels and BOTOX®, since they are effective yet gentle.
