I was searching the forum for ways to get rid of brown spots and came across one that you had replied to. In the reply you spoke of Obagi Clear and PTR un-wrinkle pads. I have lots of hyperpigmentation and need to start doing something about it. I have been thinking about going to a dermatologist, but the one I go to it takes months to get in to.

I currently use Clinique 3 Step and have been considering changing as I don't think it really does anything for me, but I also don't use anything else but that, so I don't know what I am expecting. I have been thinking of trying Peter Thomas Roth and am interested in his Deep Wrinkle 6-piece essentials kit mainly because it has the pads and also has the Retinol PM Serum that I have been thinking of trying. I would also like to try the Obagi Clear as I have heard great things about it. I have also been to several open houses on the Obagi Nu-Derm and have been interested just haven't taken the plunge. I'm just not sure I want to use the whole set. I have normal/combination skin and my main concern of my face is hyperpigmentation, monthly acne and some lines/wrinkles (I don't have deep wrinkles).

My question to you is if you were starting out what would your skin regimen be and do you think I should start with my dermatologist? From what I have read, and I have only been on here for a short time, you are very knowledgeable and I would value your opinion on this subject. TIA
