Derived from the pioneering work of Dr. Max Jessner in the early 20th century, Jessner Peel has emerged as a widely recognized chemical peel for effective acne care treatments. This unique formulation combines three key ingredients – resorcinol, lactic acid, and salicylic acid – to deliver remarkable results in addressing acne-related concerns.

Benefits & Uses of Jessner Peel

At Acne Freedom Clinic, we offer Jessner Peel as part of our comprehensive acne and acne care treatments. With its numerous benefits, Jessner Peel is a powerful tool for transforming and rejuvenating the skin.

One of the key advantages of Jessner Peel is its ability to improve skin texture and tone. By effectively eliminating dead skin cells and promoting cellular turnover, our peel helps achieve a smoother and more even complexion. Jessner Peel is a fantastic option if one struggles with acne or scars. It exfoliates the skin, unclogs pores, and reduces inflammation, resulting in more precise and healthier-looking skin.

Jessner Peel offers several benefits, including:

  • Reduction of hyperpigmentation and melasma
  • Lightening of dark spots and evening out of skin tone
  • Minimization of pigmentation issues, resulting in a more radiant complexion
  • Assistance with skin concerns such as sun damage, age spots, and superficial scars
  • Addressing fine lines and wrinkles by stimulating collagen production
  • Improvement of skin elasticity and reduction of visible signs of aging

How Does Jessner Peel Work?

The Jessner Peel solution contains three key ingredients: Salicylic acid, Lactic acid, and Resorcinol. 

  • Salicylic acid penetrates the pores, dissolves excess oil, and exfoliates the skin, aiding in treating acne and acne scars. 
  • Lactic acid promotes cellular turnover, revealing fresh and rejuvenated skin. 
  • Resorcinol helps break down rough and thickened skin layers, enhancing exfoliation.

These ingredients work synergistically to exfoliate the skin and reveal a healthier complexion. Jessner Peel also affects the skin’s pH balance, reducing sebum production and preventing future breakouts.

What to Expect During the Jessner Peel Treatment?

Before the treatment, we offer guidance on pre-treatment preparation, which may involve adjusting the skincare routine and avoiding certain products. During the treatment, our skilled professionals will carefully apply the Jessner Peel solution to the affected areas of the skin after doing thorough cleansing of the skin with gentle cleansing milk.

Our patients  may experience a warm, tingling sensation or mild discomfort, which is normal and varies depending on the peel strength and tolerance. The treatment duration typically ranges from 30 to 45 minutes, based on the treated areas. Our team ensures the patient’s comfort and supports them throughout the process.

What Can You Expect Post Jessner Peel Treatment?

After the treatment, patients notice immediate effects such as mild redness, tightness, and flaking as the old skin layers shed. These are natural parts of the exfoliation process and typically subside within a few days.

While temporary side effects like hyperpigmentation, dryness, or sensitivity may occur, our team guides our patients in managing them effectively. We also provide all our patients with a specific post-treatment skincare plan based on their skin profile which includes,  protecting the skin from sun exposure by applying sunscreen, moisturizer, and following specific instructions for recovery and healing.

With proper care, the skin will gradually heal, and you can observe the desired skin texture, tone, and overall appearance improvements. Our team at Acne Freedom Clinic offers support throughout the post-treatment phase to ensure the best possible results.
