The Skintrinsiq system extracts impurities then infuses Obagi skincare products via treatment protocols customized for individual skincare needs.

Obagi is launching the Skintrinsiq device, its first entry into the complementary skincare device market. 

The Skintrinsiq system extracts impurities then infuses Obagi skincare products via treatment protocols customized for individual skincare needs. 

"The unique design of the Skintrinsiq device combined with its exclusive availability in the physician-dispensed and spa channels allows physicians and other healthcare practitioners to provide an efficacious treatment for the skin that capitalizes on the science and heritage of Obagi products," says Jaime Castle, Obagi President and CEO, in a news release. "We know during the pandemic that skincare products for our physician customers increased in importance to their businesses, with demand from patients reaching unprecedented levels. Skintrinsiq's value proposition is that the treatment has the ability to draw more patients into a practice to experience Obagi products, which will then lead to increased sales of the products."

The Skintrinsiq device uses Obagi InfuseIQ Technology to gently lift the upper layers of the skin, opening channels allowing impurities to be extracted and Obagi products to be thoroughly absorbed. When the Skintrinsiq vacuum stops, the channels close so that products are locked in and can continue working after the treatment is over. This sets the Skintrinsiq system apart from other devices, which rely on mechanical resurfacing to prepare the skin for application of products. Treatment protocols can be tailored for all skin types and skincare goals, including protocols that minimize the look of fine lines and wrinkles or that brighten the skin for a more even complexion. Skintrinsiq treatments are recommended every two weeks for optimal results. For comprehensive skincare, the Skintrinsiq device also offers simultaneous blue and/or red LED light therapy that can be integrated without additional treatment time.

"The Obagi Skintrinsiq device allows for more rapid and thorough absorption of products into the skin, providing an instant boost to the patient's skin," says Illinois-based dermatologist Ashish C. Bhatia, M.D., FAAD, an associate professor of clinical dermatology at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago. "It's easy for my team to administer, and patients leave seeing a noticeable difference in their skin."
