After getting jenners chemicail peel how long should you wait until useing my acne medication i'm on tx ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Until healed: A jessner peel can take a good 2-4 weeks to heal completely but it can vary by individuals. Once the skin has "grown back" , you can consider using your acne medications , if needed. However, keep in mind that such a peel may have very beneficial effects on your acne condition.
