Sensitive Skin

Causes of sensitive skin

• Skin disorders  such as Eczema or Rosacea,
• Contact Dermatitis 
• Overly dry or injured skin
• Excessive exposure to skin-damaging environmental fact
• Genetic factors, age, gender, and race differences in skin sensitivity are less well-defined but still may play a role in causing skin reactions.

People with sensitive skin can be more prone to out breaks, sun burn, flare ups and redness. Many people have an understanding of the triggers that cause their reactions and will avoid the obvious irritants.

Treatments for Sensitive skin

Within the Obagi Medical System, there are many products designed for, or that can help people with sensitive skin. Both the Obagi Nu-Derm® Systems and Obagi-C® Systems are available in sensitive skin versions. Obagi Hydrate is a rich hydrating moisturiser that is gentle on the skin. When coupled with Hydrate Luxe as a night time hydration treatment, sensitive skin can benefit from transformational results.
