Chemical Peels

Chemical peels remove damaged outer layers of skin to make skin smoother, reduce scarring and remove blemishes. Peels can be combined with other procedures, such as Botox and facials, for additional improvement to skin. 

Chemical Peel Procedure

 Once your practitioner assesses your goals, they will apply one of VI Peel’s six unique chemical peel formula options. This painless application involves sweeping strokes of a liquid formula via a gauze, with time in between each layer for the product to absorb and the technician to assess your skin’s reaction. 

During a TCA or phenol peel, the skin is cleansed and the solution is applied, which may cause a brief stinging sensation. Petroleum jelly or a waterproof adhesive tape may be put on the skin following a phenol peel. During an AHA peel, the skin is cleansed and the solution applied; there is no need for post-peel ointment or covering.

Your practitioner will provide you with a take-home kit with specific post-treatment instructions and skin care products to ensure the best VI Peel experience. Included in the kit is a QR code for our App which helps you care for your skin and track your progress. A typical post-peel will show some flaking by day 2 and peeling by day 3 – 5. By day 6, the peeling will ease. By day 7, most patients have stopped peel and that fresh glowing skin on full display!
