Hi all 
I've been using obagi of and on for about 3 months i've notice that my freckles are gone, and the few moles on my face seem to be going away, Will they go away all together? I am 22 I don't even know if i should be using obagi. I use the blender and just order the sunfader. I just wanted it to even out my skin tone, and my acne is gone! I love it.. but should i be using it? Thanks guys |

| Great results skinprofusion, I would be suprised if anything cleared moles, but I assume they wont be raised ones. Still, excellent news for you and others who dislike their freckles. |

| Hi.....good to hear more raves for Obaji! I ordered the whole system...waited for a week to get it....and NOW I am afraid to use it!! All of the reviews sound so great but the "uglies??" Any words of encouragement out there?? Also....I have been reading all of these posts on EMU oil and suggestions as to which one is the best? I recently had a light tca peel (18%) and from what I understand the EMU oil will be great for healing...though I am not peeling that much!! |

Please start using it now.. I know you'll love it.. Yes there is some redness and flakes, but thats just what you have to go thro if you want that glow, what I do now. When i wake up.. my skin is usally all flaky..i jump in the shower and with the hot water after a min or so i just rub the skin off, sounds nasty I know, but that way you don't have gator skin all day long trying to load creams on it.. I don't know if anyone else has tried this works for me..My question is am I to young to use it.. I love skin care, I've tried so many things you don't even know.. and obagi has been one of the best i've tried that and Retin-A. And can't forget my total eye care from dermalogica.. love that too |

| Thanks for the reply....I needed it. Do you use the whole line with the retin-a too? Too young to use it?? you are never too young to have beautiful skin. What made you want to start Obagi? |

| Hi all, I started using Obagi a week ago. I am only slightly red <sometimes> and have had no flaking yet... I would like to know how long did you have to wait after you started obagi to see your freckles disappear and I am also curious about when will the redness and other <side effects> will start... |

A friend of my was using it and told me about it. and she had the most amazing skin, I read about the product and like the fact that it lightened your skin. I like the nicole kidman look and that it help clear up acne.. and blackheads.. so i gave it a try.. i was using retin-a at the time.. and just thought ok.. i'll just blend these 2 together.. and i loved what i saw. as of now i'm only using the blender with he retina-A i order the sunfader. and i'm interested in the obagi clear. |

| you should get the clear, when you use everything together you get the maximum results ! Here I am saying this when I didn't even use mine! I actually can't until I quit breastfeeding in the next month or so. |

| does anyone know what the time periods are for obagi? I know that your not to use the product all year around..I believe someone saying once you use it for 6 weeks and stop and just use it a few times a weeks. I don't know i'm confused.. I just use it when I start breaking out,, or if my skin looks "not fresh" if you will. thanks |

If you go towww.yestheyrefake.net and have a look at the obagi page, they have a list of facts and also if you go to one of the links it is a photo diary of a girl who used the system. |

I used the Obagi system for a year before going on maintenance. Recently I decided to go at the system aggressively again and am at the uglies stage. I had forgotten just how yucky it was. My face is red, dry and burns like hell. I must be a glutton for punishment to do this to myself again lol.
I didnt' realize until recently that the more Retin A you use the more of an effect it has. My new derm suggested I use more to obtain better results and start a new skin cycle.
