Jessner Peel In Nashville
A Jessner peel can help target specific skin concerns and reveal healthy, younger-looking skin. Medical professionals have used the Jessner peel to treat skin conditions for over 100 years. Modern formulas are carefully crafted to reduce irritation and target deeper layers of the skin.
If you do not see the desired results from your current skincare routine and want to eliminate scars, dark spots, and discoloration in the skin, then a Jessner peel in Nashville may be the answer. Learn more about this medium-depth chemical peel and how it can help you achieve healthier, glowing skin by scheduling a consultation with our qualified plastic surgeon and skin specialist, Dr. Olivia MaDan.
What Is a Jessner Peel?
How Does the Jessner Peel Work?
An essential part of the Jessner peel process is preparing your skin for the treatment properly. Dr. MaDan will instruct you on how you should care for your skin before the procedure, which may involve changing your regular skincare routine. These changes will ensure you get the best results from the treatment and reduce the risk of irritation.
To begin the treatment, a member of our medical team in Nashville will gently apply the Jessner peel formula to your skin. If the formula targets deeper layers of skin, they may first apply numbing cream or give you a painkiller to reduce discomfort. The formula sits on your skin for a few minutes, is wiped away, and your doctor or nurse will then apply cooling compresses or soothing lotions to the skin to keep you comfortable.
Your skin may feel tingly or have a mild burning sensation for about 20 minutes after the application, and there may be swelling in the treated area for a day or two.
Most patients can manage any discomfort they experience with over-the-counter pain medications, but you may find that applying ice packs to the skin is also helpful. The dedicated medical team at BEYOND Collective will send you home with complete aftercare instructions and will remain available to answer any questions you might have.
What Is the Recovery Period Like?
It generally takes around two weeks to see full results following your Jessner peel treatment in Nashville. You might experience mild discomfort and redness as old skin peels away to reveal fresher, more youthful-looking skin underneath. It is essential to avoid picking, rubbing, or scratching your skin during this time, as that can lead to irritation and infection. You should also avoid sun exposure until your skin heals completely.
Some cosmetics and skin care products may not be suitable for use while your skin is healing. Our committed team will ensure you know what to use to help your skin recover and get the best possible results from your treatment. If you have questions about what products to use or concerns about your skin during the recovery period, you can contact our Nashville office to speak with one of our knowledgeable team members.

SkinMedica Chemical Peels
SkinMedica is a premier medical-grade skincare brand recommended by plastic surgeons and dermatologists worldwide. In addition to offering a complete line of skincare products, SkinMedica is well known for its chemical peels. These peels can help you revitalize your complexion, renewing your skin and helping it appear more vibrant and youthful. In addition, these treatments expertly target and diminish the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and roughness.
At BEYOND Collective, we are proud to offer three leading SkinMedica chemical peels: The Illuminize Peel®, The Vitalize Peel®, and The Rejuvenize Peel®. Our team of specialists, trained by Dr. Olivia MaDan, administers these treatments at our Nashville Med Spa. Call our clinic today for more information about SkinMedica chemical peels in Nashville.
The SkinMedica Illuminize Peel® is specifically formulated to boost your skin with radiance and luminosity. This treatment addresses superficial skin concerns such as fine lines and wrinkles, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation. This light peel contains powerful ingredients including:
- Malic acid
- Mandelic acid
- Panthenol
- Phytic acid
- Resorcinol
- Salicylic acid
- Soap bark acid
This SkinMedica chemical treatment offers minimal peeling and almost no downtime—you can enjoy your new glow from the moment you leave our clinic in Nashville. This procedure is safe enough to perform every two weeks, or as often as Dr. MaDan recommends. The SkinMedica Illuminize Peel® is appropriate for almost all clients of any age or skin tone with superficial skin conditions.
The SkinMedica Vitalize Peel® is perfect for patients with mild to moderate skin concerns. This treatment will diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, texture concerns, scarring, and hyperpigmentation. Appropriate for mild to moderate skin imperfections, this peel contains:
- Lactic acid
- Panthenol
- Resorcinol
- Retinol
- Salicylic acid
- Saponins
This treatment can be repeated about once a month; for optimal results, we recommend a series of three to six sessions. With this SkinMedica chemical peel, our Nashville clients can expect minimal downtime with mild to moderate peeling for up to five days post-treatment.
The strongest of the three peels, this treatment specifically targets the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles to resurface and smooth your skin. The deeply exfoliating SkinMedica Rejuvenize Peel® is an excellent choice to treat moderate to severe skin imperfections. You will see noticeable improvement after only one session. This peel contains high-quality, medical-grade ingredients including:
- Isoceteth-2
- Lactic acid
- Panthenol
- Resorcinol
- Retinol
- Salicylic acid
For optimal results, we often recommend our clients undergo three to six treatments. Due to the strength of this peel, we suggest spacing the sessions apart by four to six weeks (or as otherwise directed by Dr. MaDan). With this SkinMedica chemical peel, our patients in Nashville can expect minimal downtime with mild to moderate peeling for up to seven days post-treatment.
TCA Peels In Nashville
Chemical peels are one of the best cosmetic treatments to revitalize the skin. They are customizable procedures that treat numerous skin conditions, such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, age spots, and discoloration. The American Academy of Dermatology has approved several chemical peel procedures and classified them according to how deeply they penetrate the skin and the strength of the chemical peel.
The trichloroacetic acid peel (TCA) is a popular, approved chemical peel procedure. These peels exfoliate the top layer of the skin, exposing a smoother, more youthful layer. For the best results from a TCA peel in Nashville, it is vital to ensure a qualified plastic surgeon, like Dr. Olivia MaDan, performs your procedure. Call BEYOND Collective today to learn more.
How Do TCA Peels Work?
TCA peels are trichloroacetic acid solutions of different concentrations. Lower concentrations of TCA remove a uniform layer of skin cells from the epidermis, while higher concentrations target the dermis, the skin layer below the epidermis. Typically, a TCA concentration of 10%–30% produces a superficial peel, 30%–40% produces a medium-depth peel, and 50% and above produces a deep chemical peel.
During your treatment, your experienced plastic surgeon, Dr. MaDan, will first cleanse your skin thoroughly. Depending on the depth of your peel, you may require oral sedation to keep you comfortable.
After Dr. MaDan has prepared your skin, she will apply the TCA peel evenly and quickly. She will remove the peel at the appropriate time and treat your skin as needed. TCA medium and deep peels have a recovery time of 7–14 days, and Dr. MaDan may advise you to take precautions in the sun for several months.
Are You a Good Candidate for TCA Peels?
Although TCA peels are ideal for most skin types, individuals with darker skin, higher on the Fitzpatrick scale (Type IV – VI), may develop pigmentation issues like hyperpigmentation. It is not recommended to undergo TCA peel treatment in Nashville if you are:
- Pregnant or breastfeeding
- Have a history of keloids or poor wound healing
- Taking the acne medication Isotretinoin, including Amnesteem, Zenatane, and Claravis
- Have certain skin conditions such as rosacea, psoriasis, and eczema
You should discuss your skin characteristics with Dr. MaDan before deciding on your TCA peel. She will recommend your optimal TCA peel, taking into account your target area, skin condition, and other factors.
A TCA peel treatment in Nashville is an ideal procedure if you want to improve texture, even your skin tone, and reduce fine wrinkles and blemishes.
Possible Side Effects of TCA Peels
When carried out by a qualified, experienced plastic surgeon like Dr. MaDan, the side effects following a TCA peel treatment in Nashville are usually minimal. However, the negative side effects may include the following:
- Lighter skin color after medium and deep TCA peels (hypopigmentation)
- Scarring
- Persistent discoloration
- Temporary darkening of the skin (hyperpigmentation)
It is vital to follow all instructions from Dr. MaDan to avoid these side effects. You should limit sun exposure or wear sunblock and avoid scratching or picking the treated area. You should also avoid applying makeup before your skin heals.
ZO® Stimulator Peel In Nashville

Am I an Ideal Candidate for the ZO® Stimulator Peel?
While this treatment packs a powerful punch, it is still safe enough for most patients of any age or skin tone. Schedule a consultation with our expert team of cosmetic specialists in Nashville, led by Dr. MaDan, to see if the ZO® Stimulator Peel is right for you.

Benefits of the ZO® Stimulator Peel
