Common Questions and Answers 

 
What is the Obagi-C Rx Early Intervention System?
The patented Obagi-C Rx System is a complete skin care program that proactively corrects early signs of damage to help restore and maintain healthy, youthful skin. It's the first and only system offering the benefits of both prescription-strength hydroquinone and potent Vitamin C in one comprehensive package. So you don't have to spend time and money piecing together the components you need to ensure your patient’s young skin stays that way.
 
What does the Obagi-C Rx System do?
Only the Obagi-C Rx System addresses all the needs of young skin by: 
  • Correcting hyperpigmentation—evens skin tone and enhances color uniformity by regulating the production of the cells responsible for pigment in the skin 
  • Promoting skin cell turnover through gentle exfoliation to expose more glowing, healthy skin 
  • Preventing future skin cell damage by neutralizing free radicals and protecting the skin from UVA and UVB rays 
 
Why is Vitamin C important?
Vitamin C belongs to an important group of antioxidants that fight the free radicals that age the skin. Studies have shown topical Vitamin C, in the most effective form (L-ascorbic acid), can help improve sun protection, repair sun-damaged skin, reduce fine lines, stimulate collagen building, and potentially reduce discoloration of the skin.
 
How is the Obagi-C Rx System different from other Vitamin C products?
The Obagi-C Rx System is the first and only prescription-strength Vitamin C system of products in the U.S. Its patented formulation, using proven ingredients, provides a simple-to-use system for brighter, more radiant skin. While many Vitamin C products simply moisturize the skin's surface, the Obagi-C Rx System penetrates to all layers of the skin, effectively delivering more Vitamin C than other brands.
 
What is the difference between the 2 C-Exfoliating Day Lotions?
There are 2 C-Exfoliating Day Lotion options. One has a sunscreen with SPF 12 and the other does not have a sunscreen.
