The medium-depth Jessner peel affects the upper layers of your skin, exfoliating it to improve acne and pigmentation irregularities. This peel combines 3 chemical exfoliants:
- Salicylic acid for superior exfoliation
- Lactic acid for its moisturizing properties
- Resorcinol as an antiseptic
Applying the Jessner peel takes no more than a few minutes. The process could leave your skin reddened or swelling for a short time.
The Jessner peel is a leave-in solution that resolves itself within a week. To maximize your results with this peel, you should leave it undisturbed, kept away from water or oil, for a minimum of 6 to 8 hours after the treatment.
More About Jessner Peel Modified
Who is this treatment for?
The Jessner peel is suitable for most candidates. While minor complications may be more prevalent among patients with darker skin tones, the peel is still entirely safe for them when administered by a practiced professional.
This treatment is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding people, as well as individuals with serious skin conditions.
What are the expected results of this treatment?
As a medium-depth peel, the Jessner peel usually mandates 4 to 5 days of recovery. After 10 to 12 days, your skin will be fully healed, revealing the full results of the treatment.
Optimal results include:
- Reduced dark patches and age spots
- Smoothed out skin tone
- Less visible scars
- Minimized smooth lines and wrinkles
The Jessner peel was formulated over a century ago, but it is still widely used in most reputable dermatology clinics, including at Danny Guo MD.
