The Zo Skin Health brand was created by Dr Zein Obagi, an American Dermatologist.
The brand provides a range of highly effective products and daily skincare solutions that create and maintain healthy skin.
Zo Skin Health is only available through qualified prescribing aesthetic practitioners who have a clinic base and a website.
At this clinic, all patients require a full consultation face to face before the protocols can be purchased. The consultation must be carried out by a Zo Skin Health trained practitioner who holds the relevant certification provided by Wigmore Medical.
The best results can be achieved by a combination of skin treatments at the clinic (peels/microneedling) and regular home based skin care protocols.
This brand is not working with Get Harley, so products are supplied directly from the clinic
