Been on obagi nu derm for 4 months. Out of those months I have consistently experienced extreme peeling only on my nose.It peels,bleeds,then scabs over.when I wash my face or touch my nose, scabs come off revealing raw areas,now there are brown patches on nose? I am no longer using product on nose,but it looks too bad to be seen in public.My PS briefly looked t it mont ago,said oh, just leave it alone,it will heal! It has not, I don't know what to do? Will this scar if it ever heals??

It looks like you are struggling with some hyper-pigmentation (dark spots), I would recommend the Obaji Nu-Derm System. It is targeted specifically for hyper-pigmentation. Obaji Nu-Derm Clear has 4% hydroquinone which fights against dark spots and helps bring your skin back to life by giving you...
Skin lightening creams can help with discoloration of scars. I would recommend the Melaquin AM and Melaquin PM creams. Pitted acne scars will do well with laser and TCA Cross.
In patients that are resistant to the Obagi Nuderm treatment, I begin therapy with the Melarase creams to lighten the skin and dark spots. Raffy Karamanoukian, Los Angeles
