Serums & Treatments

Facial serums are lightweight, fast-absorbing liquids formulated with concentrated ingredients designed to address specific skin concerns. They can help improve the appearance of fine lines, uneven skin tone, and uneven skin texture, and support overall skin health. Due to their formulation, serums penetrate the skin's surface more effectively than heavier creams, delivering active ingredients directly to targeted areas.

To apply facial serum effectively:

Cleanse: Start with a clean face to remove impurities.

Tone (optional): Apply toner if part of your routine.

Apply Serum: Dispense a small amount (usually a pea-sized drop) onto your fingertips. Gently press and pat the serum onto your face and neck, allowing it to absorb fully.

Moisturize: Follow with a moisturizer to lock in hydration.

Use serums as directed, typically once or twice daily.

Obagi ELASTIDERM® Facial Serum is designed to support skin elasticity and firmness. To use:

Cleanse: Ensure your skin is clean and dry.

Apply Serum: Dispense 2–3 pumps of the serum. Gently apply to the face, neck, and décolletage.

Massage: Use upward, circular motions to massage the serum into the skin until fully absorbed.

Follow-Up: Proceed with your regular skincare routine, including moisturizer and sunscreen during the day.

Facial serums should be applied before moisturizers. Serums deliver active ingredients directly to the skin, while moisturizers help seal in the serum and provide hydration. Applying moisturizer after serum ensures maximum efficacy of both products.

Choosing the right facial serum depends on your skin type and concerns:

Dry Skin: Look for serums with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid.

Oily or Acne-Prone Skin: Opt for serums containing salicylic acid or niacinamide.

Aging Skin: Consider serums with retinol or peptides to support skin firmness.

Uneven Skin Tone: Use serums with Vitamin C to help brighten the complexion.

Consult with a skincare professional to determine the best serum for your specific needs.

Facial serums can be used both in the morning and at night, depending on the product and your skincare goals:

Morning: Apply serums with antioxidants like Vitamin C to help protect against environmental stressors.

Evening: Use serums containing ingredients like retinol to support skin's natural renewal overnight.

Always apply serums after cleansing and before moisturizing.
