The Science

The Jessner
Peel

Our medium-depth Jessner peel combines three proven acids to penetrate beyond the surface, triggering your skin's natural renewal process. The result is visibly smoother, clearer, and more radiant skin.

Each ingredient plays a specific role in the resurfacing process:

Targeted Results

What It
Treats

Our chemical peels are designed to address a range of common skin concerns, delivering visible improvement where it matters most.

Hyperpigmentation

Fades dark spots, melasma, and uneven patches caused by sun exposure, hormones, or post-inflammatory marks.

Acne Scars

Smooths the texture of pitted or raised scars by accelerating cell turnover and stimulating collagen renewal.

Fine Lines & Wrinkles

Reduces the appearance of fine lines by removing damaged outer layers and promoting fresh, firmer skin growth.

Sun Damage

Lifts away sun-damaged cells to reveal healthier skin underneath, restoring a clearer, more youthful appearance.

Dull Skin

Strips away the buildup of dead cells that cause a tired, lackluster complexion, instantly restoring your natural radiance.

Texture & Pores

Refines skin texture and visibly minimizes pores by clearing congestion and encouraging smoother, tighter surface renewal.

Your Recovery

The Peel
Journey

Knowing what to expect takes the guesswork out of recovery. Follow your skin's transformation day by day.

Treatment Day

Mild Warmth & Tightness

Immediately after your peel, skin may feel warm and slightly tight with a mild pink flush. This is completely normal and a sign the peel is working. Most clients describe the sensation as a light sunburn.

What To Do

  • Apply the gentle moisturizer from your kit
  • Avoid washing your face for 6 hours
  • Skip makeup for the first 24 hours
  • Stay out of direct sun

The Tightening Phase

Skin Feels Tight & May Darken

Your skin will feel noticeably tighter and may take on a slightly darker or bronzed appearance. This is your skin preparing to shed its outermost layers. Resist the urge to exfoliate or pick.

What To Do

  • Keep skin hydrated with your aftercare moisturizer
  • Avoid direct sun exposure
  • Use only a gentle, sulfate-free cleanser
  • No active products (retinol, acids, vitamin C)

Peeling Begins

Visible Flaking Starts

This is where the magic happens. Skin will begin to flake and peel, starting around the mouth and chin and spreading outward. The peeling may look dramatic but it means fresh, healthy skin is emerging beneath.

What To Do

  • Do NOT pick, pull, or peel flaking skin
  • Let skin shed naturally
  • Continue gentle cleanser & moisturizer
  • Apply SPF 30+ before any sun exposure

Active Renewal

New Skin Emerging

Most peeling occurs during this phase as old, damaged layers give way to fresh, new skin. You'll start to notice smoother texture, brighter tone, and reduced appearance of dark spots and fine lines.

What To Do

  • Continue your gentle skincare routine
  • SPF 30+ is mandatory when outdoors
  • Stay hydrated — drink plenty of water
  • Avoid strenuous exercise that causes heavy sweating

The Reveal

Your Fresh, Renewed Skin

All peeling is complete and your new skin is fully visible. Expect a smoother, more even-toned, and visibly brighter complexion. Results continue to improve over the following weeks as collagen production ramps up.

Going Forward

  • Continue daily SPF to protect your results
  • Gradually reintroduce your normal skincare
  • Schedule your next peel in 4-6 weeks for best results
  • Enjoy your glow

FAQ

Know Before
You Peel

Everything you need to feel confident before your first chemical peel.

A Jessner peel is a medium-depth chemical peel that combines three active ingredients — salicylic acid, lactic acid, and resorcinol. Together, they exfoliate damaged skin layers, stimulate cell renewal, and promote a brighter, more even complexion. It's one of the most trusted and effective professional peels available.

Most clients experience a mild tingling or warm sensation during application, similar to a light sunburn. The feeling is temporary and subsides shortly after the peel is neutralized. We monitor your comfort throughout the entire treatment.

Expect about 7-14 days for the full peeling cycle. Visible flaking typically begins around day 4 and resolves within a week. Most clients plan their peel around their social calendar, though many feel comfortable returning to daily activities within a few days.

Many clients see noticeable improvement after just one session. For deeper concerns like stubborn hyperpigmentation or acne scarring, a series of 3-6 peels spaced 4-6 weeks apart typically delivers the best results. We'll create a plan tailored to your goals.

Chemical peels are not recommended for those who are pregnant or nursing, have active cold sores or open wounds, are currently using Accutane, or have had recent laser treatments. We'll review your history during consultation to ensure a peel is right for you.

Yes, chemical peels can complement other treatments like HydraFacials and microneedling as part of a comprehensive skincare plan. However, treatments should be properly spaced to allow your skin to heal. Your provider will guide the ideal timing.

Every peel includes a curated aftercare kit with a gentle cleanser, healing moisturizer, and SPF protection. These products are specifically chosen to support your skin's recovery and help you get the most out of your treatment.
