​
Chemical peels are acid solutions applied to the skin. They include medium and deep peels. The peels penetrate the outer and middle layers of skin to remove damaged skin cells. Modified Jessner and low percentage TCA peels are considered Light Chemical Peels. Medium (AKA Moderate) peels use a formulation that includes Jessner, TCA and Vitamin A. Phenol is considered a Deep Chemical Peel and is not within Florida Esthetician’s Scope of Practice.
TCA is one of the highest level peels that delivers more pronounced results. It is used to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, brown spots, and acne scars. TCA is also used to treat the lip and eye area to improve the appearance of dark circles, wrinkles, and fine lines.
The Jessner Peel uses a combination of salicylic acid, lactic acid, and resorcinol (a mild antiseptic). This potent peel is used for advanced acne scarring, hyperpigmentation, sun spots, wrinkles, and freckles.
Chemical peels have the potential to cause scarring, infection, and changes in skin tone if they aren’t administered under the careful hands of a licensed esthetician trained in chemical peels.
Other less severe contraindications include:
-
Cold sore breakouts
-
Swelling

A comprehensive consultation, including a client/patient history and evaluation, should always be done before a chemical peel. The client/patient consultation should cover factors that could affect the outcome of a chemical peel and the client’s perceived outcomes of the procedure.
Some of the factors to be considered include:
-
Present medical conditions (e.g., diabetes, high blood pressure, seizures, etc.)
-
Past medical conditions, including shingles, previous surgeries, skin cancer
-
Current medications, including prescription and OTC, such as birth control, heart medication, retinol products
-
Pregnancy, nursing

Any allergies
