Types of VI Peels

VI Original Peel 

The VI Original Peel is suitable for all skin types. This peel is great for sensitive skin and can treat the early signs of aging, rough skin texture, and other skin conditions. This medium-depth peel will show its results in approximately 7 days. We recommend this peel for individuals who are 20+ years old. 

VI Advanced Peel

The VI Advanced Peel is a medium-depth peel that buffs away rough skin, softens fine lines and wrinkles, and provides an overall youthful glow. This peel penetrates aging skin, making it perfect for those struggling with skin elasticity. We recommend this peel for individuals who are 40+ years old. 

VI Precision Plus Peel

The VI Precision Plus Peel is safe for all skin types. It can combat UV-induced pigmentation, sun damage, melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and textural damage. The Precision Plus Peel also promotes rapid cell turnover, leading to youthful results that are long-lasting.

What Should I Expect From My Treatment?

Chemical peels are performed in the office.  Please arrive at your appointment with a clean face, without any makeup. The VI chemical peel solution is applied directly to the facial skin. The VI peel is then carefully removed and the skin is moisturized to help minimize side effects. Most peels are performed without any need for numbing agents. A hand-held fan and ice water-soaked gauze are available for increased comfort, but often not needed. 

What Are The Potential Side Effects?*

Side effects can vary depending on the VI chemical peel formula. Most patients can expect some redness, peeling, and flaking of treated skin. More aggressive chemical peel formulas can lead to intense peeling and flaking for the first two weeks after the initial treatment. It is important for patients to wear sunscreen and to stay out of the sun in the weeks after their peel.

How Soon Will I See Results?*

Results can vary, depending on the strength and formula of the chemical peel. For mild formulas, results can be seen as quickly as two to three weeks.  Many people will return periodically for routine glycolic acid peels to maintain rejuvenated skin. For stronger, more aggressive formulas, patients may not see final results until four months after the initial treatment as collagen remodels, though brown spots tend to flake away after 1-2 weeks.
