Jessners Peel

   Jessners Solution 14/14/14 Options*  Prep B Solution and Gauze Pads  This is a medium depth peel most beneficial for those with extensive damages, problematic and cystic acne. It is not recommended for overly dry types or pigmented skin*. We find that this is extremely beneficial for those with severe, cystic acne and back acne. This peel is a very strong medium strength peel (such as TCA 20%+). It will cause frosting almost immediately upon application and will provide you with much peeling. You will most likely want to plan your schedule around this peel, since there will be down time for about 3-4 days.  You must prepare your skin for any peel - especially a medium depth peel such as a Jessners. Please follow the link below to read all about peeling and the different acids. After you have prepared your skin for 2 weeks, we suggest the following application process:

1. Wash face with acidic cleanser.
2. Dry and apply 1-2 layers of Peel Prep Solution B. This will aid in numbing the skin slightly for a more comfortable peel.
3. Air Dry.
4. Apply peel for suggested time frame on direction sheet.
5. Rinse well after 4-5 hours.

   *If you have melasma, are heavily pigmented, darker skinned or have a tan, we suggest you first treat the pigment with a bleaching/fading gel prior to peel usage.  After your peelyour skin will feel as though you have a sunburn. It may be pink-red and feel tight. Use a gentle cleanser 1-2x per day (do not scrub your skin), pat dry and apply a moisturizing ointment. (Emu +CP is a wonderful combination for healing and regeneration). DO NOT EVER tug on ANY skin that is peeling from your face (even if it is just hanging there).  You can cause excessive damage resulting in severe scarring if you tear off a piece that is still attached at the end. *Most people will start to flake between days 2-4 and will finish in 6-7 days.  

o        1st day – Pink/red depending on how many layers of solution applied. Slightly tight.

o        2nd day – Red/brownish coloring, a bit tighter feeling.

o        3rd day – Dry, leathery appearance. A bit of cracking/peeling around most active areas of face (mouth, chin, nose).

o        4th + day – Darker brown where skin has not peeled. Pink areas where skin has peeled. Very uneven texture (make up will not be able to cover).
