Acne and other skin problems cause skin damage that can really affect your confidence in facing your everyday life. At times, they can also bring stress and emotional problems that may hinder you from taking care of your skin and bring out those positive outlooks in life. There are a lot of skin care products available in the market nowadays, but if you are one of those who have tried so many products already without seeing any positive results, it might be time for you to try out Obagi Tretinoin.

One of the front liners in Obagi’s range of effective skin care products, Obagi Tretinoin is a cream applied to the face to help alleviate skin damage brought about by acne, harmful heat of the sun, and skin aging. This product greatly improves the appearance of your skin by rejuvenating healthy and youthful-looking skin from deep within. In contrast to exfoliating creams that only removes the upper most layer of your damaged skin, Obagi Tretinoin works deep within your skin to get rid of those damaged parts and produce new skin cells.

The Obagi Nu Derm Tretinoin Cream has three varieties: the Obagi Tretinoin 0.025%., Obagi Tretinoin 0.05%, and Obagi Tretinoin 0.1%. These three differ in the amount of the active ingredient present, which is Tretinoin. The higher the percentage of Tretinoin, the stronger the product is. In trying out the product for the first time, make sure to use the mildest of these creams, the Obagi Tretinoin 0.025%. Trying out the strongest at first application can only cause your skin a lot of irritations and unwanted side effects.

After applying the Obagi Tretinoin on your face, you will notice dryness and skin irritation. You may also experience peeling of the skin after a few days or weeks of using. You shouldn’t freak out as this is just normal. These irritations will eventually stop as you continue using the cream and your skin becomes used to it.
