Pharmaceutical-grade topical protocols that address cellular dysfunction—where prescription-strength actives and medical supervision create outcomes that cosmetic skincare cannot replicate.
Professor MacKenzie prescribes Cellderma® and Obagi Medical® systems—pharmaceutical formulations containing prescription tretinoin, retinol, growth factors, hydroquinone, and other clinical-strength actives that require medical supervision. This isn't luxury skincare; it's topical pharmacology designed to modify cellular behaviour.
Obagi protocols work at the cellular level: retinoids (tretinoin and retinol) increase cellular turnover and stimulates collagen production, hydroquinone inhibits melanin synthesis for pigmentation correction, vitamin C (L-ascorbic acid) provides antioxidant protection and collagen cofactor support, alpha hydroxy acids such as glycolic acid accelerate exfoliation and enhance penetration.
Professor MacKenzie designs customised regimens based on comprehensive skin assessment—not selling products but prescribing pharmaceutical protocols: Nu-Derm system for hyperpigmentation and photoaging correction, Retinoid protocols for collagen stimulation and acne management, CLENZIderm® for acne treatment using prescription-strength benzoyl peroxide, and salicylic acid. Professional-C serums for antioxidant protection and brightening.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Topical protocols optimised by systemic health—hormonal balance affects skin response to retinoids, antioxidant status determines vitamin C efficacy, inflammatory markers influence tolerance and results. Obagi works synergistically with in-office treatments and wellness optimisation.
Integration with longevity
Prescription-strength actives require monitoring—assessing tolerance, adjusting concentrations, managing retinisation phase, preventing complications. Professor MacKenzie's medical training ensures safe, effective protocols individualised to your skin physiology.
Medical supervision requirement
Initial adjustment period (2-4 weeks), visible improvements (6-8 weeks), significant transformation (12-18 weeks) with continued enhancement over months. Results depend on protocol adherence and systemic optimisation.
Use of these products pre and post aesthetic treatments will significantly improve your overall results and their duration.
Expected timeline
Stage 1
Redness appears occasionally and is often triggered by hot drinks, spicy food, or exercise.
Stage 2
Redness becomes more consistent. Small visible blood vessels (telangiectasia) may appear.
Stage 3
Acne-like breakouts begin, without blackheads. Skin may feel sore or sensitive.
Stage 4
Skin may thicken, particularly around the nose (rhinophyma).
Stage 5
In rare cases, severe rosacea - called phymatous rosacea - can lead to the development of rhinophyma - a bulbous enlargement of the nose, most common in men. Rosacea can also be ocular when it is located on the eyelids, conjunctiva and cornea, manifesting itself as red, watery and very dry eyes.
