Jessner Peel Dieppe

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.

Key Active Ingredients and How They Work

Salicylic Acid An oil-soluble beta-hydroxy acid that penetrates deep into pores to dissolve excess oil and clear debris, helping reduce breakouts and minimize the look of enlarged pores. It also exfoliates the skin's surface and calms inflammation, making it well suited to acne-prone skin and uneven texture.
Lactic Acid A gentle exfoliant that removes dead skin cells while supporting hydration. This dual action smooths texture irregularities and helps even out skin tone for a more radiant appearance.
Resorcinol An exfoliating agent that breaks down rough, scaly or hardened skin to support renewal, used for concerns such as acne and certain inflammatory skin conditions. Its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties also help reduce redness and protect the skin from oxidative stress.
