Chemical peels remove damaged cells from the skin’s surface to improve texture, tone, and pigmentation. Out of all the chemical peels on the market, VI Peel is one of the best. The VI Peel is designed to help treat all skin concerns such as aging skin, acne scarring, and much more! Here is everything you need to know about VI Peel!

Are Chemical Peels Safe?

Yes – chemical peels are safe when performed by a licensed medical professional. During a chemical peel treatment, a Master Esthetician or medical provider applies a chemical solution to the skin. The chemical solution removes the top layer of skin to improve discoloration, wrinkles, and scars.

About VI Peel

If you want a chemical peel, the VI Peel is the gold standard. It is a mid-depth peel, which means it lifts the upper (epidermis) and middle (dermis) layers of the skin. VI Peel may be used in combination with other facial treatments. Before applying the VI Peel, your provider will prep the skin by cleansing the area and applying a barrier ointment to remove oils.

Benefits: Aging, Scarring, and Pigmentation

There is nothing like a VI Peel to rejuvenate the skin. Safe for all skin types, the VI Peel softens fine lines and wrinkles, smooths the skin’s texture, and stimulates collagen production. After seven days, you’ll see results!

Risks and Downtime 

Chemical peels are safe with very few risks and minimal downtime involved. 

After a treatment, it is normal to see some redness. Usually, redness is visible within the first two days after treatment. Then, the skin achieves cellular turnover, aka peeling skin. Results are best after seven days. 

There is no downtime, but you may experience swelling or stinging. This can be treated with ice packs and over-the-counter medicine, like ibuprofen. Your provider will prepare you with post-care instructions so you know what to expect.
