Should I Repeat Obagi Blue Peel for Melasma Treatment?
melasmagirlFeb 2, 2009
I had two-layer Obagi Blue Peel for melasma following a 12-week period of using the Obagi Nu-Derm products. While using the full line of products with the 0.1% tretinoin, I did not get much redness, irritation, or peeling. I have blonde hair and semi-fair skin. (I tan easily and rarely burn.) With the Blue Peel, my skin only became tight and somewhat flaky. My skin did not turn brown or peel whatsoever like most people's would, and it made my hyperpigmentation darker. Do I just have tough skin? Would repeating the peel and going deeper make a difference?
