The Post-Procedure Solution Kit  – $40

It is a highly effective “lunch time” peel with no downtime. Includes Face and Neck.

Modified and Enhanced Jessner Chemical Peels

These three chemical peel solutions soften the depth of surface lines around the eyes and nasolabial folds, help clear acne, smooth skin texture and even skin tone. They are especially beneficial for oily skin. These blends combine AHA with kojic acid (with or without hydroquinone) with a modified Jessner’s solution to address hyperpigmentation from sun damage, inflammation and hormonal changes. AHA and melanogenesis inhibitors suppress the chain reaction responsible for the creation of new melanin. Resorcinol and the FDA-approved lightener hydroquinone are optional in these formulas.

PCA Peel® Hydroquinone Free ($135)

This formula is ideal for more sensitive skin types, ethnic skin or those allergic to hydroquinone. This chemical peel treatment will help unclog pores, clear acne and rejuvenate the skin.

PCA Peel® with Hydroquinone & Resorcinol ($145)

The most potent of the enhanced Jessner’s formulas, this chemical peel will even skin tone and provide more exfoliation for oilier, thicker and more resilient skin types.
