As you age, your skin can become dull and leave you looking tired and older. A Jessner chemical peel can help refresh and smooth your skin for a healthier appearance. If you have minor imperfections, this treatment can help turn back the clock from the effects of aging and restore your self-confidence.

Treatment Process for a Jessner Chemical Peel

During the treatment process, approximately four to six coats of the Jessner chemical peel solution is applied to the skin. You may feel a slight burning or stinging sensation. The medium depth peel is a leave-in solution that self neutralizes. It penetrates the skin to reduce the appearance of scarring, wrinkles and hyperpigmentation.

You may experience some redness, swelling and peeling for a few weeks after treatment. Your provider will give you special instructions following treatment to help you during the recovery process. It may take up to two weeks to see the full desired results from this treatment. Multiple treatment sessions may be required.

Jessner Peel Ideal Candidates

A Jessner peel is ideal for individuals who have darker skin or suffer from melasma. If you have certain skin disorders or are allergic to milk, you may not be considered a good candidate. A consultation with a board-certified plastic surgeon can help determine if you are an ideal candidate. The provider can examine your skin and review your medical history to recommend the best treatment plan for your aesthetic goals.

When I was diagnosed with breast cancer and had a consultation with Dr. Maia, not only was her expertise evident, her compassion shown through as she walked us through the process. Thankfully, I felt very comfortable trusting her as I underwent reconstruction surgery. I am very happy with the results and highly respect and recommend Dr. Maia.

Dr Maia truly loves what she does. She is invested in making you the version of yourself you want to be. She listens attentively to what you want and makes relevant suggestions. She did not try to introduce anything unnecessary into my treatment plan. The results I achieved during my first treatment keeps me coming back. Her staff is excellent and works to accommodate your schedule. I have recommended Dr. Maia several times and each time I get the same positive feedback.

Selecting a surgeon: After having two children and weight fluctuations over the years I was left with complete loss of volume in my breasts. I had four consultations with other surgeons but after comparing their photos to Dr Maia’s and meeting her in person, I knew she was my doctor. We talked about my lifestyle - being a mom and a professional, I didn’t want to be too big, but I’m curvy so I didn’t want to go too small for my frame either. She let me try on sizes and once I selected she agreed it was a good fit for my frame. Post op recovery: I was a smoker and had quit prior to surgery but she was very honest and adamant in telling me how important it was that I did not smoke. (I honestly needed the lecture and the transparency about what could happen if I did start smoking before surgery and post-op.) Because I was formerly a pretty heavy smoker, it did cause some issues after surgery with wound closing and she was SO diligent and on top of it seeing me once and week and squeezing me in for appointments between surgeries and patients. She prescribed different things to address the would closure issues before they really became a problem. Being able to have text message access to the office was great when I had questions and she even accommodated my schedule when I couldn’t be seen in person to send progress photos so that she could check on me. 3 months post op: I’m so happy with the results of my surgery and am so glad I waited to find the right doctor. She’s an artist! They look natural, fit my body shape and they haven’t even fully “dropped and fluffed” yet. Would highly recommend… comparing her patient photos to other surgeons will end your search. I feel so much better in my body thanks to Dr Maia.

This is my second time at Dr. Maia’s office and I am so pleased with my experience here. The staff is so friendly and caring. Dr. Maia is the best Dr in the DMV area, she knows exactly what she is doing and you will be happy with the results! I am so glad I found her! I recommend anyone who’s looking for a very personable doctor to come and see her! Thank you Dr. Maia & staff!
