The Science of Gentle Exfoliation
Dead skin cells, environmental pollution, and natural cellular turnover can leave skin looking dull, rough, and uneven. Obagi Exfoderm and Exfoderm Forte offer a scientifically-formulated solution for chemical exfoliation that transforms skin texture without irritation.
Obagi Exfoderm vs. Exfoderm Forte
Both products are part of the Obagi Nu-Derm system, but they cater to different skin types:
- Exfoderm (Normal to Dry Skin) – Contains phytic acid for gentle exfoliation suitable for sensitive or drier skin types
- Exfoderm Forte (Normal to Oily Skin) – Uses glycolic acid for more intensive exfoliation on resilient skin
Benefits of Regular Exfoliation
- Smoother skin texture – Removes dead cell build-up for a refined surface
- Better product absorption – Allows serums and treatments to penetrate deeper
- Brighter complexion – Reveals fresh, healthy skin underneath
- Reduced congestion – Prevents clogged pores and blackheads
- Even skin tone – Helps fade dark spots and pigmentation
How to Use Obagi Exfoderm
- Apply after cleansing and toning in your Obagi routine
- Use a small amount and spread evenly across the face
- Follow with your prescribed treatment products
- Always apply SPF in the morning after exfoliation
