How Much Can a Chemical Peel Cost?

Chemical peels are a versatile, effective treatment for a wide range of skin concerns. With VI chemical peels, you have options that can treat everything from dull skin to lines and wrinkles. Non-invasive chemical peels can give you brighter, more rejuvenated skin with no needles or lasers.

What is a VI Chemical Peel?

VI chemical peels come in several formulas. Ingredients in the peels include:

• Phenols
• Vitamin C
• Salicylic acid
• Tretinoin
• Other acids

Many peels use types of acid because they range from very gentle to intensive. They also work well for breaking up dull, dead skin cells to reveal new, brighter ones. 

VI chemicals peels come in three formulas, each with its own level of intensity:

VI Original Peel

Suitable even for sensitive skin, this gentle peel works well for overall brightening, improving skin texture, and decreasing early signs of aging. This medium-strength peel works for all skin tones and types. 

VI Advanced Peel

This peel can improve skin elasticity and firmness. It can also soften lines and wrinkles as well as provide a medium-strength peel that reveals glowing, vibrant new skin cells. 

VI Precision Plus Peel

This peel can target hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and other pigmentation issues like melasma. It can also treat rough skin tone and increase the rate of cell turnover. This increases the speed of brighter new cells coming to the skin’s surface. 

How Much Can a Chemical Peel Cost?

Chemical peels range widely in cost since they come in so many different formulas and customizable options. The American Society of Plastic Surgeons reports the average cost of a chemical peel as $519. A consultation can provide you with an accurate estimate of your costs. 

How Do VI Chemical Peels Work?

Chemical peels remove some of the outer layers of skin. This dead skin can make your face look dull, but a chemical peel can break up these cells, allowing the younger, brighter skin cells underneath to rise to the surface. Some peels work deep enough in the skin to provide significant anti-aging benefits, while some are perfect for someone looking for a brighter, more even skin tone. 

What Can VI Chemical Peels Treat?

With a VI chemical peel for almost every skincare need, these peels can treat a range of skin concerns such as:

• Skin laxity
• Lines and wrinkles
• Skin texture
• Uneven skin tone
• Blemishes
• Acne scarring
• Dullness

Am I a Good Candidate for a Chemical Peel?

Almost anyone can have a chemical peel, even those with sensitive skin. If you do have very sensitive skin and worry about discomfort, we can take steps such as gauze and cold water to make sure you feel relaxed. Most people do not require numbing during their peels. 

Is There Any Downtime with a Chemical Peel?

Very light peels may have no downtime and give you brighter skin right away. More intensive peels can leave you with several days of redness and possibly skin flaking. Increasing intensity will increase the healing time and amount of skin peeling.
