What is Jessner?
This peel combines lactic acid, an AHA with salicylic acid, a BHA & a molecule known as resorcinol. Each element of the peel plays an important role.
- Lactic acid is a hydrating & exfoliating acid.
- Salicylic acid is a keratolytic & penetrates the oil gland. It is also anti-inflammatory.
- Resorcinol potentiates penetration of both acids into the skin.
