Winter Skin with Obagi

The cold weather, your central heating, and lower humidity can leave your skin dry, tight, and dull. Winter is the time to strengthen and repair your skin barrier. The Obagi systems available here at Aesthetica Medical offer targeted support for winter skin concerns. The target is to maintain hydration, brightness, and balance.

During the colder months, your skin will produce less sebum. The result is a compromised barrier that struggles to retain moisture. You might notice flakiness, redness, or increased sensitivity. Restoring the lipid layer and maintaining hydration becomes more important in these months to keep your skin comfortable and healthy.

Obagi systems are medical-grade skincare protocols designed to correct, protect, and maintain skin health. Each range targets different skin-needs, which is exactly what you want for tailored winter care.

Perfect for skin showing signs of ageing or sun damage. In winter, it helps to renew the skin surface, reduce pigmentation, and even out skin tone. The system works to increase cell turnover, giving you smoother, fresher skin while at the same time, improving moisture retention.

This vitamin C-based system brightens dull winter skin and provides antioxidant protection. It improves collagen production and reduces fine lines while keeping your skin radiant through the darker months.

If you have acne-prone skin, winter can cause it to fluctuate between oiliness and dryness. The Clenziderm range uses benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid to help manage breakouts and keep your skin clear and balanced without the stripping away of essential moisture.

An excellent entry-level system for those in their 20s or 30s looking to maintain healthy, glowing skin through winter. It focuses on exfoliation and hydration, helping to keep pores clear and skin bright despite colder conditions.

Professional peel treatments can refresh dull winter skin by removing dead cells and improving texture. The Blue Peel Radiance is a peel that is gentle yet effective. Expect your skin to be smoother and more luminous, after just one session.

• Switch to a richer moisturiser to support your barrier.
  
  
• Use a hydrating cleanser instead of foaming formulas.
  
  
• Apply SPF daily, even when it’s overcast outside.
  
  
• Avoid very hot showers and things like saunas, which strip natural oils.
