If you have visible signs of aging, such as fine lines and wrinkles, be sure to protect your skin from sun exposure and other environmental stressors with a product that provides maximum protection such as the Professional-C Serums by Obagi. Exposure to the sun, dirty air, and other forms of pollution will take its toll on skin cells, which will be manifested by the signs of aging.  There are many different types of Obagi skin care products that can help your skin.

In order to prevent this, one should provide the skin a form of protection from the free radicals that attack the skin cells. This form of protection is provided by antioxidants, which in turn are found in huge concentrations on the Professional-C Serums. The serums were developed using the advanced techniques by Vitamin C experts. With its scientific formulation, these serums release antioxidants from Vitamin C on the skin to stimulate collagen production to make it firmer and at the same time protect it against future damage.

The serums come in four versions, with different doses of Vitamin C: Pro-C 5%, Pro-C 10%, Pro-C 15%, and Pro-C 20%, each corresponding to different skin types. The Vitamin C contained in these serums are stabilized ascorbic acid. This is the only form of Vitamin C that can be truly absorbed by the skin. The greater the penetration, the higher the chances that the antioxidants can do their job on the skin. Compared to other products, the Professional-C serums have two times greater penetration into the dermis and epidermis.

With greater penetration come better results. First, the collagen production in the skin is stimulated, which will lead to new skin cells that are firmer and more resilient. The skin also becomes lighter and will have a noticeable glow. This is due to the shedding off of the dead skin cells as new skin cells emerge. With continuous use, signs of aging like fine lines and wrinkles slowly fade away. Regular usage will also provide protection against future damage and subsequent reappearance of the age spots and lines. As the serums come in different doses, it is advisable to have your skin checked by the doctor first so that he can prescribe which of the four versions is best for you.

Having glowing skin that looks young and fresh is an everyday battle. Unless you never go out of your house, you have to make sure that your skin is well protected when you expose it to the elements. With the help of the Professional-C Serums from Obagi, you’re sure that your skin has ample Vitamin C protection.
