About Jessner Peel
Jessner Peels break down the outer layer of the skin, revealing new skin underneath. The peel is effective because it triggers a healing response in the skin. This process was developed over a century ago by Max Jessner. Jessner’s solution contains acidic ingredients that dissolve the surface layers of the skin, which heals by replacing the dead cells with new skin.
Frequently asked questions
What Are Post Peel Instructions?
After receiving a chemical peel, avoid sun exposure as much as possible when healing. Do not pick or peel the skin as these actions can cause scarring. Avoid excessive exercise for 24-48 hours post treatment as well.
What Are Alphahydroxy Acids?
Alphahydroxy acids are water soluble acids which have been used for years for skin rejuvenation. These are naturally occurring acids found in fruits and other foods. They are used in many concentrations, however, commonly used to formulate the lightest of peels. These types of peels can provide smoother, brighter-looking skin. AHA peels may be used to treat fine lines, areas of dryness, uneven pigmentation and acne.
