I am 44 yrs old Hispanic female with darker skin tone. Recently, I had been breaking out with acne on my face and have been using Retinol products. The product has been helpful but I wanted to improve my skin's complexion and brown spots left from acne. Can a Jessner peel help my skin type and how many applications and strengths should I request for optimal signs of improvement of my skin?

Jessner peel on darker skin types

This is the perfect peel for darker skin types. It targets pigment without being too aggressive to cause a lot of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Usually 2 or 3 peels at 4-8 week intervals does the job.
