Thank you to Janna for being our guinea pig for this video! We started filming a couple of these while I was on maternity leave and luckily finished this one before we went into lockdown. A lot of people ask us to show the results of treatments from start to finish for The SASS, but that means they can take 3 - 6 months to see true results. I’m so glad Janna stick it out because the results are incredible. ❤️
Evelyn Wynn -It was a specific type of peel and it was customized exactly for her needs. It might still be rough for sensitive skin just saying not the same as getting a peel you chose and then loading up on retin a on your own direction.
This is amazing! Also, are there things that are done differently for darker skin? For instance, are peels tweaked to address dark skin tone concerns, which I imagine are a little bit different from those with light skin? Also, maintenance between peels usually involve Hydroquinone, but seeing as dark skin can't use HQ in the same capacity as those with light skin, can you perhaps do a similar video/or just a video addressing melasma related concerns/peels/laser treatments (especially because there seem to be some lasers that work well on south asian/african skin tones) specifically for dark skin?
From what I’ve read it’s the same as for light skin tones except you have to be even MORE careful, gentle, and slow because darker skin tones love to make more pigment in response to harsh treatments
I could see a difference between her before and after. Her skin did look brighter and smoother. But when the Dr mentioned a peel. I thought of the chemical peels where there is extensive peeling of the skin. And I personally have nothing against those. I just learned there are different kinds of peels. Btw I missed Susan and Sharzad. But I understand this was to document this woman's experience. And I wasn't sure how far in advance this was filmed. Hopefully everyone is safe, healthy and doing well.
The best foundation is cover fx its very natural but covers without looking heavy i use the water based one its worth the $50 something My skin is opposite its white blotches that are actually very much visible when i wear any regular foundation.
Did you try color correcting for your white spots? idk wich color but maybe something like coral, light pink. I dont really know if color correcting works for this🙆♀️
I have those black spots, I don’t know if they are melasma or not, but I started getting after childbirth. My question is since I am Latin would the process be the same?
I love chemicals peels especially mandelic Acid great for acne but her face isn’t even bad lol she needs to go to the derm office I intern at I’m sure she would get rid of it in like 2 peels
She really should've recommended the eltamd uv phyical or elements sunscreen because people with melasma should only use a physical sunscreen. She recommended a chemical/physical blend sunscreen that causes heat in the skin and can make melasma worse. Also, for the product she compounded, she said there are 4 ingredients and only listed 3 lol I guess she forgot to say the fourth but I was just waiting to hear the last one lol
I'm 22 and mine started about 4 months ago. If you're thinking I didn't used my sunscreen you're wrong, I put it on and reapply religiously everyday even if I'm inside. But my town is so HOT like the breath of the underworld that I'm always sueting so much, there's no way I'll stay away from heat! LOL
The Jessner peel can be neutralized but it is technically a self neutralizing peel so while it does not have to be neutralized, it can be. If you neutralize it, it stops it from working much sooner so you do not get the “full benefit” of it and would then be even more mild which seems to be in line with the more mild approach the Doctor is going for.
Samantha, that makes sense. When she explained about the peel it was in the context of stopping the tingling as soon as she wants it to stop and said she was a control freak. This does imply that it’s a step she chooses to add which isn’t necessary but it’s reassuring to the customer that she’s in control of this at all times.
@@hanagreg I guess short term and for the time being it's not really a problem. I'm just saying that it looks like she's not taking care in making the patient feel comfortable and the patient is just kinda laying there and taking it.
Very informative and the end results were amazing! My only grip (I'm sorry!) is that Dr. Anna really should have tied her hair back, especially in the end (last treatment). It looked like it was preventing her from being as thorough as she should have been. Maybe this was just because she was filming? Ugh!
Christy Alison I thought the exact same thing. I would rather have melasma and be able to move my face than have a "perfect skin" frozen face like Dr. Anna 🙄

Thank you Susan. I am so grateful y’all chose me to be your guinea pig, and would gladly do it again! I could not be happier with my results!!! ☺️
She is so lovely and looks a little like Reece Witherspoon.
Jenny Pham thank you so much 🥰
I was amazed by how well this worked when I saw the before and after! Janna looks so good!
Anna Fryxell thank you Anna! I am so happy with the results!!
I love this. Can you show more treatments for dark brown skin? I would love to see what helps stars like Kelly Rowland and Gabrielle Union.
rissa206 yesss
Starting retin a right after a peel? My sensitive skin could never

We can't do anything 😂
Jessner Peels are amazing for all skin tones! I get one every month and it’s changed my skin!!!
From what I’ve read it’s the same as for light skin tones except you have to be even MORE careful, gentle, and slow because darker skin tones love to make more pigment in response to harsh treatments
Yes mandelic acid
No glycolic just mandelic it’s antibacterial and antifungal
Skin of color can have just about any peel, it’s the free acid value that has to be considered 😉
I am curious on how much the treatment cost?
Also all the products she had to purchase, how much did that end up costing?
All the info in the description box 👆
I love Anna, but I think she misspoke about the Jessner. I believe it is Lactic Acid, Salicylic Acid and Resorcinol. Not Glycolic acid.
That's what I thought as well.
True its lactic not glycolic
Good catch! That's right!
There is a “modified Jessners Peal” or newer or second version that includes Glycolic acid and other AHAs.
Yes, Jessner is actually 14% salicylic acid, 14% lactic acid and 14% resorcinol. but idk if they have improved or new formula
Great video on the Jessner. Thank you for showing your approach.
I am glad the young lady is satisfied with her results.
Love this! Love Dr. Anna. Wish I could afford her treatments because the results were amazing!!
Good skincare routine was given. Pricey but simple.
Omg! Her skin looks so good! Love this.
😊 thank you so much!
I thoroughly enjoyed this 😍❤️ do more like this. Master esthetician here.

It would be nice if Susan and Sharzad could have interviewed her, but i definitely appreciate having a diversity of skin concerns being showcased.
I always want to this treathment but i am so afraid bout the result
The best foundation is cover fx its very natural but covers without looking heavy i use the water based one its worth the $50 something
My skin is opposite its white blotches that are actually very much visible when i wear any regular foundation.
Did you try color correcting for your white spots? idk wich color but maybe something like coral, light pink. I dont really know if color correcting works for this🙆♀️
She looks much younger! Keep up the good work and use high SPF sunscreen! From one blonde to another!
Girl you have great skin either way !
🥰thank you!
I love this video, I have the same issue. Love this doctor!
me the whole video: WHERES SUSAN???
Just Me Haha! We filmed this while I was on maternity leave. 🤗
Can you please do a video specifically to best moisturizers
The results are great!
Heat triggers melasma? 😳 I didn't know this... I live in a really hot weather..
I’ve always noticed this cause when it’s hot my old scars flare up and get very red.
Natasha Francois I stopped running outside as well as heat made my cheek melasma worst.
I was really surprised to hear that as well. To know that even sitting in a sauna would cause my melasma to flare up! 😫
Definitely during my pregnancy I have gotten some hyper pigmentation. Especially around my forehead and under my jaw.
Candace Jones-Radtke you can do breastmilk facemask
I have those black spots, I don’t know if they are melasma or not, but I started getting after childbirth. My question is since I am Latin would the process be the same?
Loved the video
I have malasma as well
Very good info
Thank you
I love chemicals peels especially mandelic Acid great for acne but her face isn’t even bad lol she needs to go to the derm office I intern at I’m sure she would get rid of it in like 2 peels
Dermatologist just prescribed triluma. Wud that also work?
Doesn’t the Jessner have 14% Resorcinol 14% Lactic & 14% Salicylic ....
Not glycolic ?
I’m an esthetician 💘 just curious
Look it up. There is a more current modified Jessners that adds some glycolic and other AHA’s.
Now I want a peel 😂
so how much is this?
$300 each. Info in the description box 👆
She really should've recommended the eltamd uv phyical or elements sunscreen because people with melasma should only use a physical sunscreen.

Both physical and chemical cause heat.
I'm 22 and mine started about 4 months ago. If you're thinking I didn't used my sunscreen you're wrong, I put it on and reapply religiously everyday even if I'm inside. But my town is so HOT like the breath of the underworld that I'm always sueting so much, there's no way I'll stay away from heat! LOL
where is susan? 🥺
joshua muniz , literally just scrolling through the comments looking for her 😂

Lookin good girly
It's impossible to get rid of melasma. 😢
ayren bethancourt - She said it could be treated and managed but not cured...
Why acetone???? I’d bever put a paint thinner on my face. She can use alcohol to degrease
Nice
Why is this assistant just slapping the sunscreen on and dragging the skin so much with removing/applying?
because it's not a problem
@@hanagreg I guess short term and for the time being it's not really a problem. I'm just saying that it looks like she's not taking care in making the patient feel comfortable and the patient is just kinda laying there and taking it.
Um where is Susan
Acetone on the face 😨

Yikes...that dermatologist should maybe go easy on whatever has stopped her entire upper lip from moving :/
Christy Alison I thought the exact same thing. I would rather have melasma and be able to move my face than have a "perfect skin" frozen face like Dr. Anna 🙄
