Medical-Grade Skincare · Physician-Dispensed · Brandon, FL
Physician-dispensed Obagi and SkinMedica skincare systems. Prescription-strength formulas that work at the cellular level, delivering results that over-the-counter products simply cannot replicate.
Over-the-counter skincare products are formulated at concentrations low enough to be sold without medical oversight. Medical-grade products contain pharmaceutical-level concentrations of actives that penetrate deeper, work faster, and deliver measurable results.
Active ingredients like retinoids, hydroquinone, growth factors, and stabilized vitamin C need to reach the dermis to produce real change. Most drugstore formulas cannot achieve this penetration. The two lines we carry, Obagi Medical and SkinMedica, are backed by peer-reviewed clinical studies and available only through licensed medical providers for exactly this reason.
At Florida Aesthetics, our physician selects and recommends the right product system for your specific skin type, Fitzpatrick tone, and concerns. Every skincare purchase includes a complimentary consultation to ensure you are using the right products in the right sequence, which matters as much as the products themselves.
Obagi Medical is one of the most clinically proven physician-grade skincare brands available, engineered to work at the cellular level. Unlike over-the-counter skincare, Obagi products contain pharmaceutical grade concentrations of active ingredients, including retinoids, hydroquinone, and Vitamin C, that are available only through licensed medical providers.
The flagship Nu-Derm® System fundamentally transforms skin health by accelerating cell turnover and improving overall tone and texture from the inside out. By using prescription strength tretinoin and hydroquinone, this system addresses hyperpigmentation and photoaging at the source, delivering results that retail products simply cannot replicate.
SkinMedica is a physician-exclusive skincare line rooted in the science of skin biology. As an Allergan Aesthetics brand, the same innovators behind Botox and Juvederm, SkinMedica is designed to work in harmony with your in-office treatments. Their award-winning TNS® Advanced+ Serum remains one of the most clinically studied growth factor formulas on the market, proven to visibly improve skin sagging, fine lines, and overall radiance.
Because SkinMedica is part of the Allergan ecosystem, you can earn and redeem Allē points on every purchase. This makes your daily skincare routine a rewarding extension of your aesthetic investment, allowing you to save on future treatments while maintaining your results at home.
Both lines are exceptional. The right choice depends on your primary concern and how much intervention you are looking for.
