How to Use Jessner Peel 14% Professional Grade
Medical Consultation: Before using the peel, consult with a healthcare professional if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any medical conditions. If you have dark skin or are prone to hyperpigmentation, it is crucial to see a dermatologist or esthetician to evaluate if this peel is suitable for you.
Patch Testing: Conduct a patch test by applying a small amount of the peel to your forearm or behind your ear. Monitor for any adverse reactions like burning, redness, or allergic reactions within 24 hours. If you experience any of these, apply a neutralizer or soap, rinse thoroughly, and discontinue use.
Cleansing and Prepping: Cleanse your face with a gentle cleanser such as Cellbone Collagen Cleanser or a facial soap. Optionally, apply a skin refresher or toner like Collagen Skin Refresher/Toner or Prep Skin Refresher to balance the skin.
Protecting Sensitive Areas: Apply petroleum jelly to sensitive areas such as lips, eyes, and nostrils to protect them from the acid. Wear latex gloves to avoid direct contact with the peel.
Application: Apply the Jessner Peel evenly to your skin using cotton pads or gauze. Leave the peel on for 3 to 5 minutes, but closely monitor your skin’s reaction. The duration may vary depending on your skin's tolerance. Layering the peel can increase the depth of peeling but should be approached with caution, especially for those new to peels or with sensitive skin. This formulation is self-neutralizing*, so there's no need for a separate neutralizer. Avoid washing your face or applying any products for up to 12 hours after application.
Post-Peel Care: Gently wash your face with a mild cleanser like Collagen Cleanser or a mild milk cleanser. Apply a soothing and hydrating product such as Hydra CP+ Skin Hydration Gel or Moist’Seal. Always use a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect your skin while it is healing.
During the Peeling Process: Avoid applying skincare products with active ingredients and makeup while your skin is peeling. Do not touch, pick, or scrub the peeling skin to prevent scarring and infection.
Sun Exposure: Minimize sun exposure and wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher to protect the new skin and prevent hyperpigmentation. Remember, each person's skin is unique, and reactions to chemical peels can vary. If in doubt, or if you experience severe reactions, seek professional advice immediately. When using chemical peels, like Jessner's, you should prioritize your skin's health and safety.
* Cellbone Jessner's Peel is formulated to be self-neutralizing. This means that it does not require a separate neutralizing step after application. However, even though it is self-neutralizing, it is still crucial to follow the specific instructions provided. These instructions will guide you on the recommended application time and any post-application care necessary to ensure the best results and minimize the risk of adverse reactions.
