Are Jessner Peels Safe on Darker-Olive Skin Types?

Esthy in NY
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?
