Obagi-C Rx
The Obagi-C Rx systems are the perfect kit for those who are looking to reduce the signs of dull/dry skin, rough texture, and aging.
With the Obagi-C systems you’re on your way to healthier, refreshed, and revitalised skin: from cell to surface. Obagi-C Systems promote skin rejuvenation, from the inside out, using specially formulated ingredients that will reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and age spots. This is combined with 10% L-ascorbic acid (Vitamin C): the only topical antioxidant proven to stimulate collagen synthesis and protect your skin by minimising future skin cell damage.
Obagi-C Systems are ideal for treating:
- The minimalization of Fine lines.
- The minimalisation of an uneven skin tone.
- Mild hyperpigmentation and minimalize age spots.
- Dry, normal, oily, or even sensitive skin.
Both systems are equally fabulous, but the Rx kit is a must for those looking to fight extreme ageing and deep pigmentation, such as melasma.
What are the Obagi-C Systems?
The amazing Obagi-C Systems are complete skincare regimens that proactively correct signs of damage to help restore and maintain healthy and radiant skin. These systems offer the benefits of both prescription-strength hydroquinone and potent Vitamin C in two comprehensive packages. These are suitable for all skin types, including normal to oily skin and normal to dry skin.
AM/PM: Obagi-C Cleanser Gel
─ Effectively removes makeup, oil, and dirt. To clarify and prepare your skin for the following key ingredients.
AM/PM Normal to Oily Skin: Obagi-C Balancing Toner
─ An alcohol-free and non-drying toner that balances your skin’s ph. This allows the key ingredients in the products that follow to penetrate your skin and work more effectively.
AM: Obagi-C Fx Clarifying Serum
─ 7% Arbutin is a non-prescription and essential ingredient to help reduce hyperpigmentation, such as dark spots/sunspots. The body converts Arbutin and suppresses the enzyme that produces pigmentation. This helps you on your way to a lighter, brighter, and more even skin tone. On top of that, the Obagi-C Fx Clarifying Serum contains 10% L-ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C): to improve the appearance of ageing skin and help defend against free radicals.
AM Normal to Dry Skin: Obagi-C Exfoliating Day Lotion
– This lightweight, daily moisturiser gently exfoliates the skin using Glycolic Acid without the need for mechanical exfoliation, such as beads or crystals. Additional hydrating ingredients relieve skin of dryness and help to reveal a brighter and healthier-looking complexion.
PM: Obagi-C Fx Therapy Night Cream
─ Gradually diminish the appearance of dark spots overnight, while you sleep, with 7% Arbutin and Vitamins C and E.
AM: Sun Shield Matte Broad Spectrum SPF50
─ This non-greasy and matte finish SPF is non-comedogenic, therefore it won’t your block pores. It is allergy tested, PABA-free, and dermatologist tested. This fabulous SPF gives you broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection every day.
What will the Obagi-C systems do for my skin?
The Obagi-C Rx range is a less intensive option than the Obagi Nu-derm. Although, the Obagi-C Rx range still contains prescription-strength 4% hydroquinone plus 10% L-ascorbic acid, which means it still has fabulous aesthetic advantages:
Improves the appearance of hyperpigmentation (discolouration).
Accelerates skin turnover to restore balance, radiance, and clarity to lacklustre skin.
Promotes skin rejuvenation from the inside out with Vitamin C: the only topical antioxidant
proven to stimulate collagen synthesis.
Minimises future skin cell damage by neutralising free radicals and protecting the skin.
Maximises antioxidant absorption due to a low pH level (low pH also means greater antioxidant stability and longer shelf life than other leading Vitamin C products).
How are Obagi-C Systems different from other Vitamin C products?
Many companies offer a cosmeceutical containing Vitamin C, but it’s important for you to know that not all Vitamin C products are created equal. Clinical data shows that the patented Obagi-C formulation delivers more L-ascorbic acid into the skin and remains in the skin longer than SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF: another leading Vitamin C skincare product.
Why is Vitamin C important?
Vitamin C belongs to an important group of antioxidants that fight the free radicals that age your 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 discolouration of the skin.
Over-the-counter skincare products have been designed to suit most of the population. They do this so not to affect the general populations’ skin negatively. For this reason, the concentration of their active ingredient is relatively low. Therefore, giving minimal effects on acne, pigmentation, rosacea, and scarring concerns. Over-the-counter products are designed to sit on the skin’s surface, whereas our products have been designed to penetrate the epidermis and affect deeper layers of the skin.
The products we use are a lot more potent. They have been developed and researched to the point that they have sufficient active ingredients to make changes in your skin. A higher amount of the active ingredient = better quality and results!
Using a specific dosage and frequency that the prescribing practitioner explicitly recommends will achieve the desired effects for you. The System exfoliates old skin to leave behind beautiful, new skin that looks and acts younger and healthier.
How long does it have to be used?
We usually recommend using Obagi-C Rx until you have achieved your desired results, which is usually between 9-12 weeks. Each client’s skin is individual and will react differently at each stage; some concerns such as pigmentation, build up over time and take more time to break down.
Following on from a skin therapy consultation and use of the recommended skincare, we encourage you to keep in touch via email/telephone. Also, to attend the Clinic for reviews at a personally recommended duration, so that we can ensure that the dosage and frequency is correct for you.
During the first few weeks of using the products, your skin may feel slightly oily or dry while the skin regulates. You may experience purging. This is the process of shedding dead cells, bacteria, oil, and debris underneath the surface of your skin. The meaning of skin purging is the skin’s reaction to quality and active ingredients that cause increased skin cell turnover.
Obagi can make clients more sensitive to UV light, so it is essential that a high factor SPF is used.

The Obagi-C Rx is one of the most suitable treatments for mild pigmentation and ageing. It is recommended to use for a minimum of 12 weeks. The products are a prescription-only skin care range requiring all clients to see our skin specialist and Dr to confirm suitability.
Obagi-C Rx kit is £370 and is estimated to last for use over 2-3 months.
