Jessner's At-Home Chemical Peel
Category: tca peel
Revised Content:
WHAT IS IT: Our Jessner's peel combines 14% salicylic acid, 14% lactic acid, and 14% resorcinol, and is packaged in a 30ml (1fl oz) glass amber bottle. This amount is sufficient for 8-10 full-face peels. Designed for experienced users, this medium-level peel with a 1.2 pH is suitable for most skin types, including darker skin tones that typically do not respond well to peeling.
The lactic acid in this peel stays on the skin's surface, providing exfoliation. Lactic acid has been used for centuries to renew skin tone and texture, as it can be found in low concentrations in honey, papaya, and citrus fruits. As an Alpha Hydroxy acid, lactic acid helps encourage cell turnover and stimulate collagen formation, while also smoothing and softening the skin.
Resorcinol, on the other hand, offers antiseptic properties and helps break down the "glue" that holds dead skin cells together. As an effective exfoliator, resorcinol loosens the damaged skin layers, exposing the new, fresh skin beneath, while also stimulating collagen formation.
The combined effects of these ingredients help smooth fine lines, address acne, sun damage, dull skin, uneven complexion, age spots, and superficial scarring.
OTHER INFORMATION: The Jessner's Peel is a light to medium peel, with the depth controlled by the amount of time it is left on the skin and the number of layers applied. This peel is very safe and suitable for all skin types, especially those with oily or acne-prone skin. However, some darker skin tones, particularly African American individuals, may face a small risk of post-peel hyper- or hypo-pigmentation. As with any product, a patch test is recommended to assess individual skin reactions.
