Obagi

Recognizing that many patients are more comfortable using pre-set skin care systems, the aestheticians of Cantera Spa in the Naperville area set out to find the best combination of easy to use systems with prescription-strength formulations. Obagi® Systems and Products were chosen for their high quality prescription-strength formulations and the variety of systems which were available. Using its Penetrating Therapeutics™ technologies, Obagi’s products are designed to improve penetration of prescription and cosmetic agents across the skin barrier. These products can substantially improve common and visible skin conditions in adult skin including sun damage, hyperpigmentation (chloasma, melasma, and freckles), acne, photodamage, and rosacea.

Obagi® has launched several successful new systems of products; all systems consist of topical products, which when used as a system result in substantial improvement to many of these skin related conditions. The available systems are the Obagi Nu-Derm® System, which excels in reducing age spots and post-acne hyperpigmentation; the Obagi-C® Rx System, which is the first and only prescription-strength Vitamin C and hydroquinone System; the Condition & Enhance® System, developed to enhance the results of physician delivered surgical and non-surgical procedures; the ELASTIderm® family of products, a one of a kind treatment developed to restore skin elasticity and collagen production, and reduce fine lines and wrinkles around the eyes and Decolletage; the CLENZIderm M.D®. Acne Therapeutic Systems, which treat and prevent acne at its root; and most recently the Rosaclear System developed specifically for the treatment and prevention of the signs and symptoms of rosacea. Thus, with such a variety of sytems available to the patient, the aesthetician can determine which system meets the patient’s specific needs and lifestyle.

Obagi® products are also used in a number of Cantera Spa treatments. Perhaps the most notable and most impactful treatment is the Obagi Blue Peel. While a typical deep laser treatment costs around $2000-$3000, the Obagi Blue Peel can give a patient a similar result to a laser treatment for a significantly lower cost. The Blue Peel can tighten the skin, reduce fine lines and improve blemishes. To find out which Obagi® System or treatment is appropriate for your skin issue, please contact Cantera Spa to speak with one of our aestheticians.

Skinceuticals

The Institute of Aesthetic Surgery and Cantera Spa’s mission is to improve skin health. Dedicated to this purpose, we make one simple promise: provide advanced skin care backed by science. To fulfill our promise SkinCeuticals products were chosen for their quality and scientific basis.

Established as a manufacturer in 1997, the SkinCeuticals research team helped pioneer the advent of cosmeceuticals with the original topical vitamin C formula which protects skin from premature signs of aging caused by environmental damage. SkinCeuticals has adopted a multidisciplinary approach to product development. They have formed networks with top scientists from the fields of cellular and molecular biology, chemistry, biophysics, and medicine to further their understanding of the skin aging process and individual skin conditions.

To maintain and improve skin health, an effective skin care regimen must contain three fundamental aims: prevent future damage, protect healthy skin, and correct previous damage. SkinCeuticals provides complete skin care solutions through plastic surgeons, dermatologists, medi-spas, and other skin care professionals, earning them a strong reputation in the United States and in over 35 countries worldwide. Cantera Spa in the Naperville area is proud to offer both at-home SkinCeuticals products and spa treatments utilizing SkinCeuticals products to help their clients in their fight against aging skin.

Please contact Cantera Spa for additional information about SkinCeuticals products and spa treatments.

Skinmedica

The physicians of the Institute of Aesthetic Surgery and the aestheticians of Cantera Spa in the Naperville area believe everyone deserves to have naturally radiant skin. In keeping with this belief, Skinmedica skincare products were chosen as one of the skincare lines offered for our patients benefit.

Skinmedica has dedicated years of research to formulating advanced skin care products that rejuvenate skin. Its entire aesthetic product line is based on the science of the skin's own healing abilities. As skin ages, elasticity decreases, lines appear and overall appearance is diminished. To counteract the effects of time, their skin care products contain restorative ingredients that work below the skin's surface to regenerate the health of the skin. Skinmedica’s scientifically proven recovery compounds include essential ingredients ranging from vitamins C and E, to retinol, to TNS®; which has a patented blend of growth factors, soluble collagen, antioxidants and matrix proteins. In addition to being available for our patient’s in-home use, many of the Skinmedica products are part of the skin care treatments available in our spa. Several of the peels offered are from Skinmedica; and our Hydrafacial has the option of adding TNS® for an additional boost to the improvement in your skin.

The impact is clear - fine lines are reduced, age spots and discoloration fade, while skin texture and elasticity are improved. All are results of SkinMedica®'s commitment to creating a lifelong skin care solution for healthier skin. Please contact Cantera Spa today for more information regarding Skinmedica products and the spa treatments offered which include Skinmedica products.

Pyratine-6

The aestheticians at Cantera Spa in the Naperville area have chosen to add Pyratine-6 to the products available for their client’s daily skincare regimens. Pyratine-6 is a cytokinin-based product; cytokinins are a class of plant growth factors and are well known for delaying aging. Anti-aging Pyratine-6 delivers rapid results and is ideal for sensitive skin. Pyratine-6 is not an acid and works without burning, peeling, redness or irritation; yet it is clinically proven to increase moisture content, reduce redness, even out skin tones, and brighten complexions. Skin appears smoother with a noticeable reduction in roughness and fine lines in as little as two weeks.

Pyratine-6 can be used alone, or in combination with other physician-grade skincare products offered at Cantera Spa. It is ideal for use in combination with prescription strength skincare items, such as rosacea focused products. Schedule your skincare consultation today with one of the aestheticians at Cantera Spa, and find out how Pyratine-6 can help address your specific skin issues!
