The Dermaquest Modified Jessner’s Peel is a gentle yet effective skin rejuvenation treatment, particularly well-suited for managing acne-prone skin, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and clogged pores. This treatment is mild in nature and is especially compatible with the typically more sensitive Asian skin types. It helps in controlling oil secretion, preventing the formation of blackheads and acne, smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, and balancing skin pigmentation, thus restoring healthy and beautiful skin.
Who is the Ideal Candidates for the Treatment
This treatment is highly recommended for individuals with excessive oil secretion, blackheads, acne-prone skin, acne scars, fine lines, pigment discoloration, and clogged pores.
Treatment Process
The Dermaquest Modified Jessner’s Peel involves a step-by-step process:
Step 1: Cleansing the facial skin.
Step 2: Applying protective balm to sensitive areas like around the mouth, nose wings, and around the eyes.
Step 3: Applying the first layer of the Modified Jessner’s Peel (5 minutes duration).
Step 4: A second application of the Modified Jessner’s Peel (5 minutes duration).
Step 5: A third application of the Modified Jessner’s Peel (5 minutes duration).
Post-Treatment Care
Important considerations following the treatment include:
Avoid water on the face, including washing and shampooing, for 4-6 hours post-treatment to prevent neutralization of the peel’s effects.
The skin may feel tight on the second day. It is recommended to apply a moisturizing cream when needed.
Peeling typically begins around the third day and can last until the seventh or eighth day.
After seven days, hydrating facial masks can be applied.
During the peeling period, do not peel off the flakes with your hands. If necessary, trim them carefully.
Avoid sun exposure for fourteen days post-treatment and apply sufficient sunscreen (SPF30) before going outdoors.
