What is the Obagi Blue Peel?

The Blue Peel is an in-office procedure designed to significantly improve the appearance and health of your skin. Using a low concentration of the chemical tricholoracetic acid (TCA) mixed with a special blue base to slow penetration, the Blue Peel effectively remove the thin surface layers of damaged skin to an appropriate monitored depth. These dead skin cells are replaced by healthier ones, allowing the skin's own clarity and tightness to resurface. The procedure is performed by a doctor, who is specialized trained and experienced in using this highly effective peel.

What is unique about the Blue Peel?

Unlike alpha-hydroxy peels, glycolic peels, or other superficial procedures, the Blue Peel allows controlling the depth of the peel and the number of coats applied to tailor the process for your skin's specific needs.
