ZO Skin Health is a medical-grade brand developed by Dr. Zein Obagi, a world-renowned dermatologist and innovator in the field of skincare. This method of skincare focuses on prevention, individual conditions, targeted therapy, daily skincare and routine maintenance.
Dr. Zein Obagi
In 1992, our physicians were personally trained by Dr. Zein Obagi when they were in private practice in Florida. Since then, they continued with an unwavering commitment to creating healthy, radiant skin utilizing Dr. Obagi’s products that have revolutionized the approach to skincare.
At the core of ZO Skin Health‘s philosophy is the belief that healthy skin is a reflection of overall wellbeing. Dr. Zein Obagi’s approach is rooted in the understanding that our skin’s health is influenced by various factors, including genetics, lifestyle, and environmental aggressors. ZO Skin Health aims to optimize skin health by targeting the skin at a cellular level, addressing underlying issues, and promoting long-term skin vitality.
Key Highlights
One of the key highlights of ZO Skin Health products is their integration of innovative technologies. ZO Skin Health has pioneered the concept of “therapeutic skin health” by combining prescription-strength ingredients with over-the-counter formulations, ensuring that you can achieve professional-level results from the comfort of your own home.
Here at Stamatiou Aesthetics @Excel MediSpa & Laser our team is committed to empowering our patients with knowledge about their skin. ZO Skin Health emphasizes the importance of proper skincare routines, lifestyle habits, and regular consultations with our skincare professionals to achieve long-term skin health and continued education of the health of your skin.
One-size-fits-all all approach
Furthermore, ZO Skin Health recognizes that skincare is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Their product range is organized into different programs, each specifically designed to address specific skin concerns and conditions. These programs include:
Daily Skincare: These products form the foundation of a healthy skincare routine, better known as GSR- Getting Skin Ready. Dr. Obagi emphasizes that skincare begins with proper cleansing, toning and exfoliating to assure a proper result. With the award winning Exfoliating Polish made of magnesium crystals and ascorbic acid the exfoliating polish revolutionizes your skincare routine.
Anti-Aging: Targeting the signs of aging, this program incorporates advanced formulations that help reduce the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots incorporating active growth factors, peptides, various formulations and strengths of medical grade retinols and natural ingredients like bakuchiol and rose hips.
Hyperpigmentation: Designed to even out skin tone and minimize discoloration, this program includes potent ingredients that work to reduce the appearance of dark spots and uneven pigmentation. The mechanism of blocking the overproduction of melanin and inflammatory factors is accomplished with tranxemic acid and niacinamide and potent antioxidants including glutathione and ascorbic acid.
Acne Prevention and Treatment: This program offers effective solutions for combating acne breakouts, controlling oil production, and promoting clear, blemish-free skin including post inflammatory hyperpigmentation and acne scars.
Sun Protection: ZO Skin Health emphasizes the importance of sun protection and is a pioneer in providing a range of broad-spectrum sunscreens with UVA/UVB/ HEV (blue light ) and IRA protection that also include antioxidants and patented peptide complexes. These products are more than just a sunscreen.
Clinical Pairings of ZO Skin Health Products for Microneedling, Mesotherapy, and Facial Plastic Surgery
Drs. Stamatiou and Diamandis and the ZO trained aestheticians will also guide you to the clinical pairings of ZO Skin Health products for microneedling, mesotherapy, and facial plastic surgery. We understand that achieving optimal results in aesthetic procedures requires comprehensive pre- and post-treatment skincare. That’s why we recommend the following ZO Skin Health products to enhance and support these treatments:
Microneedling (Derampen, Hydroneedles)
Microneedling is a popular minimally invasive procedure that stimulates collagen production, improves skin texture, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and acne scars. When combined with ZO Skin Health products, the results can be even more remarkable.
For example, the combination of ZO Skin Health’s Accelerated Firming Serum with the microneedling can yield exceptional results in skin rejuvenation and firmness. This specialized serum is formulated with breakthrough anti-aging technology ZCORE™ and Sodium-DNA ; high concentrations of of powerful blend of peptides and patented complex that work synergistically to enhance the effects of microneedling which supercharges the skin’s rejuvenation process and works to improve the appearance of sagging and skin laxity.
By incorporating the Accelerated Firming Serum into your post-microneedling skincare routine, you can experience accelerated healing, reduced downtime, and enhanced firmness. This serum aids in collagen remodeling, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and promoting a more youthful complexion.
**Growth Factor Serum**: Applied after microneedling, this serum aids in the healing process by promoting tissue repair and collagen synthesis. It enhances the overall effectiveness of microneedling, leading to accelerated recovery and rejuvenation.
**Daily Power Defense**: To maintain the results of microneedling, this lightweight serum should be used daily. Packed with antioxidants and DNA repair enzymes, it helps protect the skin from environmental stressors and supports long-term collagen production.
At Stamatiou Aesthetics/Excel MediSpa & Laser,, we prioritize the combination of advanced skincare solutions and innovative treatments like microneedling to help you achieve your desired skin goals. Contact us today to explore how the ZO Skin Health products and microneedling can work in synergy to rejuvenate and firm your skin effectively.
**Mesotherapy:**
Mesotherapy is a technique that involves the injection of various substances into the skin to target specific concerns, such as fine lines, pigmentation, and hydration. When combined with ZO Skin Health products, mesotherapy can be even more effective in achieving desired outcomes.
**Brightalive Non-Retinol Skin Brightener**: This non-retinol formula is ideal for individuals who are not suitable candidates for retinol-based products or need to maintain the results. It helps even out skin tone, reduce the appearance of discoloration, and enhance the overall brightness of the complexion with powerful ingredients like tranxemic acid and niacinamide. This formulation is ideal to maintain your winter brightening results through the summer months.
** Exfoliation Accelerator**: Incorporating this exfoliating solution into your skincare routine can optimize the effects of mesotherapy. It promotes cellular turnover, refines the skin’s texture, and improves the absorption of subsequent products secondary to the glycolic and lactic acid formulation, leading to enhanced results.
**Daily Sheer Broad Spectrum SPF 50** one of the favorite broad spectrum ZO sunscreens. Protecting your skin from harmful UV rays is crucial after mesotherapy. This lightweight sunscreen provides broad-spectrum protection, shielding the skin from sun damage and maintaining the integrity of your results along with being water resistant and non-comedogenic.
**Facial Plastic Surgery:**
Facial plastic surgery procedures, such as facelifts and blepharoplasty, can greatly improve your appearance. With these procedures, Dr. Stamatiou will provide a “structural” improvement in your appearance. ZO Skin Health products and treatments will improve the texture of the skin while supporting the healing process and enhance surgical outcomes. Therefore ZO Skin Health products are an essential addition to your skincare regimen.
*Hydrafirm Eye Brightening Repair Cream**: Following eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty), this eye cream helps minimize post-operative swelling, bruising, and puffiness. It also targets fine lines and dark circles, restoring a youthful and refreshed appearance to the eye area.
*Recovery Crème**: This post-treatment moisturizer contains high levels of retinol, peptides, and antioxidants. It supports the skin’s healing process after facial surgery, reduces redness, and accelerates recovery for smoother, healthier-looking skin.
*Growth Factor Serum**: As a powerful regenerative treatment, growth factors are beneficial after facial plastic surgery. This serum aids in tissue repair, reduces the appearance of scars, and promotes a more youthful complexion.
