Question
Hi I've been reading a lot about this peel; I am mid-way thru Obaji, I have cut out the clear and use the blender to a lesser degreee w/ the tretinoin due to the CA controversy; I actually just ordered a 2% hydroquinoine/Glycolic /mmh/product/beauty/index.vm?procid=13" target=_blank>cream to repace the 4% /mmh/product/beauty/obagi/index.vm?procid=13&catid=202" target=_blank>obagi: Is it okay to use this peel in conjunction w/ Obaji? It seems that Lekat is on a semi-obagi regimen less the exfoderm. Or is this somethine that I should wait until I go on "maintenance". I have noticed a big difference in my /mmh/product/beauty/index.vm?procid=13" target=_blank>skin; still have fine lines under /mmh/product/eyelidsurgery/index.vm?procid=6" target=_blank>eyes which are my #1 complaint. Thank you all so much for the advice!
Answer
Hi Glock-
You are on the ball- I have been on a quasi obagi thing with retin a in the pm of late- and yes, I am using the the /mmh/product/chemicalpeel/index.vm?procid=4" target=_blank>peel- weekly-
Just do a patch test first- there is a small percentage of people who use retin a and/or who have sensitive skin that might be extra sensitive to a peel-
Those undereye lines are very stubborn.

Thanx LeKaT - I'm going to give it a try next week and see how it goes. You know SSOOOOO much about all this I am so impressed. Thank you for your advice. I am thinking of trying Captique for those little lines under the eye, we'll see. /mmh/product/botox/index.vm?procid=20" target=_blank>Botox doesnt work because they're under, no real muscle usage in that area, afraid of /mmh/product/botox/index.vm?procid=20" target=_blank>Resty, and I have been trying a small amount w/ the /mmh/product/beauty/obagi/index.vm?procid=13&catid=202" target=_blank>obagi, I do not go too much too closue under the eye........someday I will find the solution. Thanx again, have a good nite. Deb

Hi Deb-
Let me know how the captique works for you.
That is an injectable? It seems it is simliar to restyline- containing mostly hyalauronic acid.
Md Formulations has something new out called 'the temps' it is suppose to temporarily improve /mmh/product/beauty/index.vm?procid=13" target=_blank>wrinkles- I can't find an ingredient list, but the hype says it contains advanced optical diffusers, peptides. It's only $36.00.
I haven't seen any reviews on it either.

Hi LeKat - I'll let you know how all goes, Captique is a less dense version of resty, thinner, less bruising and all that goes along w/ resty, doesnt last as long though, costs less; so I'll give it a try; Like I said I am too afraid of resty in the /mmh/product/eyelidsurgery/index.vm?procid=6" target=_blank>eye area my PS who is very good, won't do it there. I also saw some people on this /pictures/index.php" target=_blank>picture board who did the /mmh/product/chemicalpeel/home_peels/tca/index.vm?procid=4&catid=1045&subcatid=1047" target=_blank>TCA /mmh/product/chemicalpeel/index.vm?procid=4" target=_blank>peel just to the eyes, I'm not sure if the ones I want to go away are too close to the eye itself though......I read something last nite here about a new one "/mmh/product/beauty/amatokin/index.vm?procid=13&catid=1210" target=_blank>amatokin" someone was looking for it - it's on the make me heal products list but "out of stock"; supposedly it's not available anywhere yet, Sephora in France has a web site w/ a waiting list.....
