New Product Alert: Obagi Rebalance

Claire Lavery • June 12, 2024

Obagi is renowned for its range of medical-grade skincare products formulated to minimise the signs of common skin concerns and support a healthy skin microbiome.

The Importance of Maintaining a Healthy Microbiome

Our skin's microbiome is a highly complex ecosystem, home to an array of microorganisms, which consistently work together to ensure your skin's barrier is protected and balanced. 

A balanced skin microbiome supports good moisture retention and a healthy complexion, however there are a number of factors that can lead to an imbalance, including:

- Acne, eczema and rosacea
- Chemical exfoliants and retinoids
- In-clinic procedures, such as laser treatments and chemical peels

When your skin's microbiome is unbalanced, you may experience dryness, irritation, itchiness and redness, all of which can be uncomfortable and take a toll on our overall sense of self-confidence.

What is Obagi Rebalance?

Obagi Rebalance Skin Barrier Recovery Cream is formulated with soothing and powerful postbiotics, which work to replenish lost moisture, rebuild and rebalance the microbiome, and soothe the skin during the recovery process following a period of disruption to the microbiome.

With consistent use, Obagi Rebalance Skin Barrier Recovery Cream will provide comfort to the skin after in-clinic treatments, including chemical peels and laser treatments, soothe skin sensitivity caused by AHAs, BHAs or retinoids, and restore lost hydration.

Although it is not intended to treat acne, rosacea or eczema, it can also help to soothe and calm the skin following a flare up of symptoms associated with these skin conditions.

During clinical studies, 94% of participants stated their skin felt soothed and hydrated, and experienced relief from itchiness and dryness that occurred as a result of aesthetic treatments.

How Does Obagi Rebalance Work?

Obagi Rebalance Skin Barrier Recovery Cream is equipped with BarrierPlex Technology, which is an innovative blend of hydrating agents, soothing ingredients and potent postbiotics designed to soothe irritation, ease sensitivity and support the healing of compromised skin.

Some of the most notable ingredients in the Obagi Rebalance Skin Recovery Cream formulation include:

1. Postbiotics 
Postbiotics work to restore the skin's microbiome and provide soothing properties to enable healing.

2. Ceramides
Ceramides are an essential component of a balanced and healthy skin barrier, helping to prevent damage from free radicals and a loss of radiance.

3. Green Algae 
This powerful ingredient has the ability to calm and soothe skin irritation, supporting the recovery process following periods of skin sensitivity.

4. Skin Barrier Supporting Ingredients
Obagi Rebalance Skin Barrier Recovery Cream is formulated with niacinamide, which works to minimise irritation and support a more radiant, refreshed complexion. Also included in the formulation is squalane, which is known for its hydration-boosting properties and is a key contributor to the balance of a healthy skin microbiome.

When Will I See Results From Obagi Rebalance?

From the first day, Obagi Rebalance will get to work calming and soothing irritated, itchy and red skin. The postbiotics within the formulation will be instantly introduced to the skin, where they will help to rebuild and restore the microbiome.

On day 14, the skin's microbiome will feel more balanced, and signs of irritation will be reduced. On day 28, your skin's hydration levels will be restored and locked in to support the ongoing health of your microbiome.

When people hear the phrase "dissolving filler," they often assume something has gone wrong. While there are certainly cases where poorly placed or excessive filler needs to be corrected - often from treatments performed by other practitioners - the truth is that dissolving filler is not always a negative step. In many cases, it is simply part of a natural and thoughtful approach to maintaining your best results over time. Why Would We Dissolve Filler? Filler is not permanent, and for good reason. Products used several years ago may no longer be suitable for your current skin quality, facial structure, or aesthetic goals. Over time, hyaluronic acid fillers can migrate subtly from their original placement, leading to less defined contours or a look that no longer complements your face. In addition, the quality and technology of dermal fillers have significantly improved over the years. Modern fillers offer better integration with the tissues, longer-lasting but more natural results, and more predictable behaviour in the skin. If you were treated several years ago, it’s possible the product used at that time may no longer be ideal — even if the work was expertly done. Finally, as we age, the structure of the face changes. We naturally lose bone density, fat pads shift, and skin elasticity reduces. A filler placement that once looked perfect can start to look less harmonious as your facial anatomy evolves. Dissolving old filler allows us to work with the face as it is now, creating a more natural and flattering result. The Benefits of Dissolving Filler Choosing to dissolve filler can be empowering! It offers a "clean slate" that allows for a more strategic, bespoke treatment plan. Rather than layering new filler on top of old, migrated product, we can start fresh, carefully rebuilding volume, contour, and balance where it is really needed. Key benefits include: Restoring natural facial harmony Removing product that has migrated or created heaviness Allowing for better, more precise re-treatment Adjusting to your current facial structure and skin quality Using newer, more advanced filler technologies for optimal results How Filler Dissolving Works At Claire Lavery Aesthetics, we use a enzyme called hyaluronidase to break down hyaluronic acid-based fillers. The process is safe, quick, and targeted, ensuring that only the undesired filler is affected while leaving your natural tissues unharmed. After dissolving, we typically recommend allowing the area to settle for a few weeks before considering further treatments, giving your skin time to fully recover. A Thoughtful, Expert-Led Approach Filler dissolving is never rushed and is always tailored to your individual needs and goals. Whether it’s correcting previous work, refreshing your look after years of gradual migration, or updating your aesthetic plan to reflect the latest techniques and products, dissolving is simply part of maintaining beautiful, natural results over time. If you feel your filler is no longer enhancing your appearance - or you simply want a professional opinion - we are here to guide you through the process safely and expertly. Book a consultation today to find out whether dissolving and re-treating could be the next positive step in your aesthetic journey.

Injectable treatments have revolutionised the aesthetics industry, offering a way to enhance natural beauty, restore volume, and soften signs of ageing. However, one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding injectables is that they always result in an overfilled or unnatural look. In reality, when performed by skilled practitioners using the right techniques, injectables can achieve subtle, balanced results that enhance rather than alter a person’s appearance.

The start of a new year is the perfect time to reassess your habits and set intentions for the months ahead. While many focus on fitness goals or career aspirations, one resolution that often goes overlooked is the commitment to a consistent skincare routine. Your skin is your largest organ and the first line of defense against environmental stressors. Building a solid at-home skincare routine is not only key to maintaining healthy skin but also serves as the foundation for maximising the results of in-clinic skin and injectable treatments.

The festive season is a time of joy, celebration, and giving. As we search for the perfect gifts to brighten someone else’s Christmas, we often forget an equally important aspect: treating ourselves . After all, the festive season can be stressful, and a little self-care can go a long way. Skincare, with its lasting benefits and feel-good factor, makes the perfect gift—not just for others but for yourself too.
