The New Obagi Acne Fighting System

Benzoil peroxide has been being used as an acne fighting medicine for decades now for one good reason and that is that it truly is effective at eliminating acne causing bacteria.

However; there is one drawback to using benzoil peroxide and that is that is that it can and will dry the skin out leaving it cracked red and irritated.

The big problem is that dry cracked skin is then more vulnerable to attack by acne causing bacteria which in turn leads to more treatments with benzoil peroxide. The Obagi acne skin treatment system not only uses soluble benzoil peroxide to attack the acne causing bacteria deep below the skins surface in the substrate but it also addresses the overall health of the skin.

By effectively promoting the production of collagen and elastin while simultaneously fighting acne causing bacteria with benzoil peroxide the Obagi skin treatment system insures that the skin will be left healthy and viable which will allow it to function as the bodies natural barrier to invading bacteria. Numerous clinical trials have shown again and again that this approach to fighting acne that is central to the Obagi system is effective and does in fact produce noticeable long lasting results.

What Is Different About the Obagi Acne System?

For decades acne fighting skin treatment products all took the same approach to fighting acne skin blemishes. Almost without exception they used benzoil peroxide to kill the acne causing bacteria that was the main source of the problem. The end result, was that acne was reduced but was rarely completely eliminated due to the fact that the benzoil peroxide dried the skin out leaving it more vulnerable to attack by acne causing bacteria.

What is different about the Obagi system for fighting acne is that Obagi acne fighting skin care products fight the acne with benzoil peroxide but they also treat the skin as well by stimulating it to produce more collagen and elastin. Collagen and elastin are essential to healthy normal functioning skin that is better able to function as the bodies natural barrier to bacteria attack.

Obagi skin care products are chemically formulated to penetrate beyond the skins surface to the substrate where the actual causes of the skins surface problems are located. Surface skin problems such as acne, dryness and wrinkles are in fact only symptoms of cellular dysfunctions that exist in the skins lower skin layers, so treating skin problems on the surface only addresses the symptoms rather then the causes of the skin problems.
