Am I a Candidate for a VI Chemical Peel?

You can opt for a variety of treatments if you’re seeking ways to rejuvenate your skin. Should you suffer from issues such as wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, scarring, fine lines, or just a generally dull complexion, you might want to consider getting a chemical peel. This has proven to be popular amongst patients at the Laser Skin Care Center, giving you a non-surgical approach to skin rejuvenation. 

What Are Chemical Peels?

As the name suggests, chemical peels are composed of a special chemical solution. The exact solution will vary from peel to peel, but it will be made of ingredients that are designed to exfoliate and improve your skin. Chemical peels are applied to your face, where they are then left to settle for a period of time. From here, the chemical solution can effectively be peeled off, removing the damaged outer layers of your skin. 

You can get chemical peels in different strengths depending on how severe your complexion issues are. The stronger the peel, the deeper it penetrates into your skin. You will need to leave time between chemical peel treatments to let your skin recover, though some of the highest strength peels can only be used once. 

What VI Chemical Peels Can Treat

VI chemical peels are designed to improve your skin’s tone and texture. This happens due to the deep exfoliative effects provided, getting rid of things like dead skin, dirt, and anything else. As a result, a chemical peel could be used to treat the following:

• Acne
• Acne scars
• Mild to moderate wrinkles & fine lines
• Rough or scaly skin
• Other types of scars
• Sunspots & sun damage 
• Irregular skin pigmentation

Who Are The Best Candidates For VI Chemical Peels?

Seeing as chemical peels are non-surgical and minimally invasive, they are suitable for a majority of individuals. If you suffer from any of the issues listed above, it might make you a candidate for this particular treatment. Your candidacy will be discussed at length in conjunction with your goals during your consultation

Following on from this, if you want to treat concerns like deep wrinkles and sagging skin, you won’t see the desired results from a chemical peel. Instead, you may be better suited to injectable treatments, like Botox® or dermal fillers. 

Benefits of VI Chemical Peels

Furthermore, you can choose how strong you want your treatment to be, meaning you can select a peel that targets your specific cosmetic problems. Speaking of which, the results will last for a long time, with the chemicals in the peel helping to promote natural skin health. Overall, this treatment can leave you with smoother skin that’s visibly more hydrated and healthy!
