Jessner Peels

What is a Jessner Peel?

The Jessner peel is a chemical peel that combines the synergistic effects of three key ingredients: salicylic acid, lactic acid, and resorcinol. These ingredients work together to exfoliate the outermost layers of your skin, revealing a fresh, rejuvenated appearance. By unclogging pores, reducing acne breakouts, fading hyperpigmentation, and improving skin texture, Jessner peels offer a comprehensive solution to various skin concerns.

Each Component Explained

• Salicylic Acid: Salicylic acid acts as an exfoliant, helping to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores. It has anti-inflammatory properties that reduce redness and inflammation, making it beneficial for individuals with acne-prone skin. By promoting a healthier skin barrier, salicylic acid helps minimize breakouts and improve overall skin clarity.

• Lactic Acid: Lactic acid is an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) that gently exfoliates the outer layer of the skin, revealing a smoother and more radiant complexion. It also helps maintain skin hydration, preventing excessive dryness often associated with traditional exfoliation methods.

• Resorcinol: Resorcinol is a potent ingredient that aids in exfoliation by breaking down and removing dead skin cells. It also has antiseptic properties, helping to combat bacteria on the skin's surface and promote a cleaner, healthier complexion.

Indications and Benefits of Jessner Peels

Jessner peels offer significant benefits for a wide range of skin concerns, including:

• Acne: Jessner peels are highly effective in treating acne-prone skin. The salicylic acid component of the peel penetrates the skin and unclogs pores by removing excess oil and dead skin cells. It also has anti-inflammatory properties that help reduce redness and inflammation associated with acne breakouts. The combination of salicylic acid, lactic acid, and resorcinol in the Jessner peel helps improve overall acne control, minimize pore size, and promote a clearer complexion.

• Hyperpigmentation: Jessner peels can effectively address various forms of hyperpigmentation, including sunspots, age spots, and melasma. The exfoliating action of the peel helps fade pigmentation by removing the top layer of skin, where excess pigmented cells accumulate. Additionally, the resorcinol component of the Jessner peel has been shown to inhibit the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for dark spots. With a series of Jessner peel treatments, you can achieve a more even and radiant skin tone.

• Fine Lines and Wrinkles: The Jessner peel stimulates collagen production and improves skin elasticity, which can help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. By promoting cell turnover and revealing fresher skin, the peel can give your complexion a smoother, more youthful look. Over time, with regular treatments, the texture and firmness of your skin can be significantly improved.

• Uneven Skin Texture: If you have rough, uneven skin texture or superficial scarring, Jessner peels can help smooth and refine your skin's surface. The exfoliating properties of the peel remove the damaged outer layers, allowing healthier, more even skin to emerge. With consistent treatment, you can achieve a more polished and radiant complexion.

Benefits of Jessner Peels

• Enhanced Skin Radiance: Jessner peels remove dead skin cells and promote a healthy, radiant glow, revitalizing your complexion.

• Improved Skin Clarity: By unclogging pores and reducing excess oil production, Jessner peels help minimize acne breakouts and clarify the skin. They also reduce redness and inflammation associated with acne.

• Even Skin Tone: Jessner peels fade hyperpigmentation, including sunspots, age spots, and melasma, resulting in a more even and balanced skin tone. They help remove dark spots and promote a brighter complexion.

• Smoother Texture: Jessner peels refine the skin's surface, reducing the appearance of roughness, fine lines, and superficial scars. Regular treatments lead to smoother, softer skin with improved texture.

The Treatment Process

During your consultation, we will determine the appropriate strength and number of Jessner peel treatments for your unique needs. The peel will be applied to your skin, and you may experience a mild tingling or warmth during the procedure. This will be monitored, and the number of layers applied will depend on how your skin responds to the peel.

After the Jessner peel, your skin may appear slightly red and feel tight, similar to a sunburn. Over the next few days, the outer layers of your skin will naturally shed, revealing fresh, rejuvenated skin underneath. It is important to follow the post-treatment care instructions provided, which may include gentle skincare practices and the use of sunscreen to protect your newly revealed skin.
