Jessners and TCA peels are advanced chemical exfoliation treatments that work deeper than a standard peel to deliver more significant skin renewal.
By stimulating the skin’s natural healing response, these peels encourage the production of new collagen and elastin, improving skin texture, tone, pigmentation and the appearance of fine lines.
“ Your clinician will recommend the most suitable peel and depth for your skin type and concern, ensuring a treatment that is both effective and appropriate for you. ”
What can I expect during treatment?
Your skin will be thoroughly cleansed and degreased before the peel solution is carefully applied in controlled layers. You may feel a warm or tingling sensation during the application - a cold air fan is available throughout to keep you comfortable. Your clinician will monitor the skin’s response closely at every stage. A soothing SPF is applied at the end of your session to protect the skin.
What to expect post-treatment?
Following a Jessners or TCA peel, it’s normal to experience some redness, tightness and peeling over the days that follow - this is the skin renewing itself. Peeling can last up to a week or more and tends to appear as light flaking rather than sheets. Avoid picking or forcing any peeling skin. Results continue to develop with a course of treatments, and individual results may vary.
FAQs
Proper skin preparation before a chemical peel is key to achieving the best possible outcome. Your clinician will advise on any adjustments to your skincare routine and provide a full pre-care plan at consultation. Avoid sun exposure, waxing and resurfacing treatments in the lead-up to your appointment. Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin.
After your peel, your skin will need a little extra support. Use only gentle, hydrating products and apply a broad-spectrum SPF every day - no exceptions. Avoid water on the skin for the first 4–6 hours post-peel, and steer clear of heat, exercise and active skincare ingredients for at least 24-48 hours. Your clinician will provide a detailed post-care guide to take home.
You may feel warmth and tingling during the peel application, which is temporary. A cold air fan is used throughout to keep you comfortable and minimise any sensation. Your clinician will check in with you at every stage.
