What is the VI Chemical Peel?
VI stands for Vitality Institute, the makers of this powerful peel. The VI Chemical Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel that works to reduce the appearance of aging, improve the texture of the skin, and kick sun damage and hyperpigmentation in the butt.
How? A chemical peel physically removes the damaged outer layers of the skin to reveal fresh, new, glowing skin underneath. The VI solution breaks down the top layers of skin cells, called the epidermis, to penetrate deeper than the surface. This stimulates the body’s natural healing response of new collagen and elasticity.
In short, the VI Chemical Peel is an intense exfoliation of the face. It’s not abrasive and safe for use on the face, chest, eyelids, hands, and back. This unique formula uses the best peeling ingredients like phenol, TCA, salicylic acid, and more. The procedure typically lasts only 30 minutes with minimal downtime.
What are the Benefits?
There are many treatments designed to fight aging skin and reveal a healthier-looking you. So, why choose a VI Chemical Peel? Here are some of the benefits. The VI Peel is:
Painless and effective showing results in just 7 days
Safe for all skin types and tones
Fantastic for fine lines and wrinkles, often caused by loss of elastin and collagen
Great for targeting sun spots, discoloration, and skin spots like melasma by lightening the skin
Helpful for treating keratosis pilaris (or chicken skin)—bumps that many people have on their arms or legs. Since an active ingredient in the peel is salicylic acid, this helps break down these often stubborn bumps.
Improving acne by killing bacteria, reducing clogged pores and sebum production, and lessening inflammation
Most patients only need one peel to produce significant results. Fine lines and dark spots are the first to go, and you will reap the benefits for many months to follow.
What to Expect From a VI Chemical Peel
This non-invasive treatment is performed safely and comfortably in our office. It’s entirely painless and feels like a typical facial treatment as you relax and we work our magic.
After two to three days, your skin will naturally start to peel. As skin flakes fall off, it does not hurt, but it doesn’t look that cute so be patient as you shed. This peeling phase lasts about one week, then you’ll get to enjoy your amazing results!
It’s important to avoid excessive sun exposure post-procedure as your new skin is fresh and prone to burning (and damage!). Remember, do not pick off your skin flakes, though SO tempting. Let it fall off naturally!
Depending on your goals, you may book your next peel 4-6 weeks later, but many patients are pleased with one round of results. Don’t worry if this feels like a lot to consider, you will be given specific aftercare instructions from our team!
IS THIS TREATMENT RIGHT FOR ME?
The VI Peel works for people with all skin types and tones. If you suffer from sun damage, melasma, UV-induced pigmentation, post-inflammatory, or hyperpigmentation (PIH), this treatment is ideal for you! Similarly, if you are prone to acne or have acne scars, a VI Chemical can be a game-changer to clear your skin.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult with your physician before getting the treatment done. Due to inadequate research, it is not recommended to get a peel containing salicylic acid or TCA while pregnant.
