Transform Your Skin with Expert Care
Looking to refresh your complexion and improve skin tone and texture? The Jessner Chemical Peel is a powerful skin-resurfacing treatment designed to target acne, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and uneven skin tone. At Chicago Weight Loss & Wellness Clinic, we offer this medical-grade peel to help you achieve a smoother, brighter, and more youthful complexion.
What Is a Jessner Chemical Peel?
The Jessner Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel that combines three key ingredients:
- Salicylic Acid: Exfoliates the skin and helps reduce acne and clogged pores.
- Lactic Acid: Hydrates and brightens the skin while improving overall texture.
- Resorcinol: Helps break down rough skin layers to improve tone and reduce pigmentation.
This peel works by removing the damaged outer layers of skin, promoting new cell turnover, and stimulating collagen production. The result? A smoother, clearer, and more youthful appearance.
