The Jessner peel is one of the most commonly recommended chemical peels by dermatologists for problematic skin. It is especially recommended for:
– Acne vulgaris and inflammatory lesions,
– acne scars and hyperpigmentation,
– dilated pores and excessive seborrhea,
– blackheads,
– symptoms of photoaging (wrinkles, loss of elasticity, post-sun discoloration).
The formula combines salicylic acid, lactic acid and resorcinol – ingredients with exfoliating, seboregulating and brightening effects. This makes the peel an effective solution for both acne treatment and mature skin therapy.
Salicylic acid reduces seborrhea by regulating sebaceous glands and reduces skin imperfections such as blackheads, enlarged pores, discoloration and shallow wrinkles.
Lactic acid moisturizes the skin and improves its elasticity by inducing collagen and elastin production.
Rezorcinol exfoliates the skin while acting as an antibacterial, antiseptic and astringent. It also regulates sebum secretion.
The medical literature emphasizes that Jessner’s peeling:
– accelerates the healing of acne lesions and reduces the number of blackheads,
– shallows acne scars and improves skin smoothness,
– shrinks the sebaceous gland outlets, reducing the overproduction of sebum,
– brightens the skin and reduces hyperpigmentation,
– stimulates collagen production, thus improving firmness and reducing fine wrinkles.
Dermatologists also point out that Jessner’s peel is sometimes used as a “primer” before other peels (such as TCA), increasing their penetration and effectiveness. Clinical studies show that combining these methods produces better results in the treatment of acne scars and melasma than using a single peel.
Specialists emphasize that it is a peel that is safe even for darker skin phototypes, provided it is performed by an experienced professional and with post-treatment care.
1. Consultation and diagnosis – we start each therapy at our clinic with a skin analysis using the DermoDetector Al Pro to select the best solution.
2. Skin preparation – cleansing and any previous skin care recommendations.
3. Application of the peel – layered application, adapted to the skin condition.
4. Exfoliation – usually begins after 2-3 days and lasts for several days.
5. Results – skin becomes smoother, brighter, acne lesions are reduced, pores are narrowed and hyperpigmentation is lightened.
Jessner’s peel cannot be performed in case of:
– active herpes or skin infection,
– damage and interrupted continuity of the epidermis,
– fresh tan, use of a tanning bed,
– allergy to aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid),
– therapy with vitamin A derivatives (wait a minimum of one month).
