Obagi
Obagi systems are designed to prevent and improve the most common and visible skin disorders in adult skin, particularly melasma and solar lentigos (age spots). The foundation of the company began in 1988 with the creation of the Obagi Nu-Derm® System, developed by leading skincare experts. Since then, Obagi continues to produce high quality products for dermatology patients. Dr. Ecker considers it among the best treatments for those with the above conditions. Significant results can be seen in as early as two weeks. Their Elastiderm eye cream provides significant results for the tougher to treat under eye wrinkles.
Glytone
Glytone systems and products are award-winning products that have stepped up the quality of treatment for several dermatologic conditions. They have excellent products to treat everything from age spots, solar lentigos, and melasma, to acne and keratosis pilaris.
Clarisonic
The Sonic Skin Cleansing System uses a patented sonic frequency of more than 300 movements per second to clean, soften and smooth skin. In just 60 seconds, the brush gently, yet thoroughly removes 6X more makeup and 2X more dirt and oil than manual cleansing alone. Removing these impurities has been shown to allow a 61% better absorption of Vitamin C, and better prepares skin for other products. At Minnesota Dermatology, we often recommend it for general skin care as part of an anti-aging regimen, acne, keratosis pilaris, among other indications.
Revision Skincare
Revision Skincare is an outstanding company that produces extraordinary products. We carry a number of products from Revision Skincare, including their Intellishade sunscreen for the face, Skin Brightening cleanser, and Teamine Eye Complex, which is excellent for dark circles under the eyes.
Neocutis
Neuocutis is a Swedish company whose technology platform relies on the use of cultured fetal skin cells obtained from a cell bank for treating differing skin conditions. It was originally inspired for wound healing but quickly other applications became apparent including rejuvenation. Products such as their Lumiere Bio-restorative Eye Cream and Bio-Gel Bio-restorative Hydrogel provide fantastic results.
Pharmaceutical Specialties, Inc.
PSI produces products for people with sensitive skin and chronic skin diseases such as eczema and psoriasis. They are free of most scents, preservatives, and additives that can lead to exacerbation of the condition. Vanicream™ and Free & Clear™ products are among those that we routinely recommend.
Allergan
BOTOX and Juvederm are excellent wrinkle smoothing treatments. They provide a minimally-invasive and affordable approach to eliminating and preventing the deeper lines we acquire with time and sun exposure.
