After your Jessner peel, you can expect smoother, brighter skin with an improved skin tone, and a reduction in pigmentation, fine lines, and blemishes. These results are achieved through professional peels that rejuvenate and refine the skin’s appearance.
The Jessner peel is a medium-depth chemical peel that combines salicylic acid, lactic acid, and resorcinol. This unique blend exfoliates the outer layers of the skin, promoting cell turnover and revealing fresh, younger-looking skin. It effectively treats a variety of skin concerns, including acne, hyperpigmentation, and signs of aging.
The Jessner peel is suitable for most skin types and is customizable based on your specific skin needs and concerns.
The Jessner peel can be applied to the face, neck, chest, and hands to address various skin concerns.
Our experts will evaluate your skin type, skincare goals, and any underlying conditions to create a customized treatment plan. Depending on your specific needs, multiple layers of the Jessner peel may be applied to achieve the best results.
We capture photos for your patient profile to track progress over time and monitor your skin’s improvement after each treatment.
The Jessner peel is applied in layers, allowing for a customized treatment experience. Patients may feel a tingling sensation, but the procedure is generally well-tolerated.
Mild peeling and redness are common after a Jessner peel, lasting up to a week. While there is no extended downtime, it’s important to avoid sun exposure and wear sunscreen during the healing process.
Please contact your clinic to discuss the cost of this treatment.
Depending on your skin’s condition and desired results, multiple Jessner peel sessions may be recommended, spaced about 4 to 6 weeks apart. Your provider will determine a personalized treatment plan to maintain long-term benefits.

A Jessner peel is effective for reducing dark patches, age spots, acne scars, melasma, and hyperpigmentation. It helps even out skin tone, smooth fine lines and wrinkles, and improve overall skin texture. This medium-depth chemical peel is ideal for treating acne scars, sun damage, and dull complexion, leading to a more youthful, refreshed appearance.
Both peels are effective for treating skin concerns, but they differ in depth and suitability. A TCA peel is stronger and penetrates deeper, making it better suited for more severe concerns like deep scars and wrinkles. However, it carries a higher risk of hyperpigmentation and scarring, especially for those with darker skin tones. On the other hand, a Jessner peel is safer for all skin types, including darker skin, and is effective for treating acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and fine lines with a lower risk of side effects.
A clinical study published in the Journal of Cutaneous and Aesthetic Surgery found that combining Jessner’s solution with 20% TCA improved acne scars and minimized post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, especially in darker skin types. The study concluded that Jessner’s peel can be an effective adjuvant to TCA, reducing risks associated with deeper TCA peels.
The Jessner peel is not recommended for those who are pregnant or have allergies to salicylic acid or resorcinol. During pregnancy, hormonal shifts can increase the likelihood of skin discoloration, making this treatment less suitable. Additionally, if you have an aspirin allergy, you may be sensitive to the salicylic acid in the peel.
Results can begin to appear within a week as the skin peels and new, rejuvenated skin is revealed.
Recovery from a Jessner peel generally takes 7 to 14 days. During the first 24 hours, you may experience redness, swelling, and tightness. Peeling usually starts 2 to 3 days after the treatment and can last up to a week. Downtime can vary based on factors such as the number of layers applied, your skin sensitivity, and pre-peel preparation. Full recovery and visible results are typically seen within 1 to 2 weeks.
Yes, your skin will likely begin to peel 3 to 5 days after a Jessner peel. This peeling is a normal part of the healing process as the skin sheds its outer layer. Avoid touching or picking at the peeling skin to prevent irritation or infection and follow your provider’s aftercare instructions to ensure the best results.
It is recommended to wait at least 24 hours after treatment before applying makeup.
For optimal results, treatments can be spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, depending on your skin’s needs and the advice of your skincare professional.
To ensure proper healing and optimal results after a Jessner peel, follow these aftercare guidelines:
Professional administration is generally better for a Jessner peel. Professionals use higher concentrations of the active ingredients, ensuring more effective treatment and customized results. They can tailor the peel to your specific skin needs and monitor the treatment process for optimal outcomes. At-home peels often have lower concentrations and may not provide the same level of effectiveness.
