I was wondering if anyone has used the Obagi products and what your thoughts are. I have used since April and really like the products but I am still having issues with Milia on my cheeks...I even had a blue peel in January and really was not that thrilled with the overall results. Has anyone used and products to successfully get rid of Milia or whiteheads????

I just ordered a bunch of Obagi. I will post when I try it. I read a lot of good things about it and the before and after photos are impressive.

Regarding milia, there is a product that I read about on the SkinCare Talk Forum on http://www.makeuptalk.com

Here is a link to the thread:

It can be purchased at

Good Luck!

Thanks Mary, I will check out this out. Keep me posted on your Obagi results. I think you will be happy with Obagi. I was thrilled when people started noticing my skin (something that does not happen very often!)

Hi, I used obagi for 7 months and was not pleased with the results. I peeled like a snake and you have to use it for EVER for the results to last. I thought it was a waste of money.

If I find products that work I don't mind using them and paying the price for them..I was very happy with Obagi but I still have the issue with Milia...I am hoping someone out there has been successful in having them removed for good!

Did you use Obagi's s/s? It really is not very good. You need to block UVA rays to fight milla and their s/s isn't strong enough to do this. If you keep using Clear, Retin-A and a good s/s and still have milla after several months, I then look into ruby laser.

So do you think the sun is the problem? I do sit in the sun in the warmer months but not a worshiper. What s/s do you use? I am visiting my PS today to get his take on this...thanks...Pam

Even if your milla was caused by hormones, sun "feeds" milla. Lord, girl! Sitting in the sun is too much! You need to use a good s/s everyday even on cloudy days. UVA rays are the damaging rays and they go through clouds and windows.

I use Shiseido Ultimate Sun Block. It's a physical s/s I can't use chemical s/s.

Thanks, you are right...I will look into a better ss....met with my PS surgeon and he was able to extract only 1 of the milia...very imbedded..we are going to see how this heals before he attempts the rest....of course I am blotchy right now....
