JetPeel: A New Technology for Facial Rejuvenation

Abstract

JetPeel (Tav-Tech Ltd., Yehud, Israel) is a new device for cosmetic resurfacing of the facial skin. It uses a new technology of a 2-phase stream that creates a jet composed of gas (oxygen) and microdroplets of fluid (saline) accelerated to supersonic velocities. This jet impacts the skin, causing gentle and accurate cosmetic peeling. Our preclinical and clinical experience with the JetPeel for rejuvenation of the face is presented. In a group of 50 patients, we found the JetPeel technology to be a safe and effective new tool for the usual indications for facial peeling. It was most useful and effective for perioral peel. JetPeel can be used in combination with other resurfacing modalities such as chemical peeling or laser. Further investigation is needed to explore other applications of this technology, such as using different combinations of gases and fluids and transdermal transfer of medication dissolved in the peeling jet.

The effects of hydroporation on melasma with anti‐aging cocktail

“…It can create a jet stream composed of microdroplets and gas. The subsonic flow can exfoliate the epidermis and even reach the upper dermis . The effects of these devices were reported in several clinical studies.…”

“…JetPeel (Tav‐Tech Ltd., Yehud, Israel) is a skin resurfacing device to perform mechanical peeling and stretching of the superficial skin by spraying air and microdroplets. The device accelerates the flow of air and liquid to a subsonic speed, in which liquid is converted into microdroplets by the force of turbulence . Jet‐M, an improved version of JetPeel‐2, utilizes a compressor unit.…”

Damaged Skin

“…After World War II, lay peelers developed peeling techniques, mainly using trichloroacetate and phenol [283]. Use of phenol and dilute trichloroacetic acid (TCA) for cosmetic purposes began to be published in the 1940s and for various indications in publications continuing through the 1960s and 1970s [278].…”

“…In the early twentieth century, lay practitioners in Europe used various peeling formulas, including trichloroacetic acid, salicylic acid, resorcinol, formaldehyde, acetic acid, and phenol [282]. A retrospective claim has been made for the use of phenol peeling for acne scars in 1903 [278,283]. Phenol was also used to treat hypertrophic scars resulting from poison gas burns in WWI [277,284].…”

Facial and Periorbital Cellulitis due to Skin Peeling with Jet Stream by an Unauthorized Person

“…Peeling skin with a jet stream (shortly named as jet-peeling) is a new technology for cosmetic resurfacing and deep cleansing of the skin. It is reported as a safe and effective tool for the usual indications for facial peeling such as resurfacing, wrinkles, scars, and acne treatment [1]. Indications of jet-peeling are also developing, such as delivering antiseptic and anesthetic solutions to the deeper layers of skin [2].…”
