The peel bar

The original VI Peel is excellent for general anti-aging, tone improvement, and overall skin rejuvenation. VI Peel Precision Plus is specifically designed for hyperpigmentation, melasma, and post-inflammatory discoloration, incorporating additional lightening boosters that suppress melanin production and accelerate the fading of dark spots. This formulation is particularly popular among our patients dealing with sun damage accumulated over years of outdoor activity.

For patients struggling with active acne breakouts, the VI Peel Purify and VI Peel Purify with Precision Plus target acne at its source by combining antibacterial and anti-inflammatory ingredients with the peel’s exfoliating power. These formulations help clear existing breakouts, unclog pores, reduce sebum production, and minimize acne scarring. During your consultation here, our clinical team will evaluate your skin concerns, type, and treatment history to recommend the VI Peel formulation that will deliver the best results for your unique needs.

You will wash the solution off at home after four to six hours using a gentle cleanser, then begin applying the included post-peel towelettes and healing products according to the provided schedule. The actual peeling process typically begins on day two or three, starting around the mouth and chin and gradually spreading to the rest of the face over the following days.

The peeling phase lasts approximately five to seven days and varies from light flaking in some areas to more significant sheeting in others. It is essential to let the skin shed naturally without picking, pulling, or scrubbing, as premature removal of peeling skin can lead to scarring or uneven results. Throughout this process, you will keep the skin moisturized with the provided post-peel products and apply SPF 30 or higher sunscreen whenever going outdoors. By day seven, most of the peeling has completed and the fresh, rejuvenated skin underneath is revealed, smoother, more even-toned, and visibly brighter than before treatment.

Fine lines appear softened, dark spots and discoloration begin to fade, pores look more refined, and the overall complexion has a renewed luminosity. For more advanced concerns such as deep melasma, extensive sun damage, or persistent acne scarring, a series of two to four treatments spaced four to six weeks apart typically produces the most dramatic and long-lasting results.

The VI Peel is safe for all skin types and tones, including Fitzpatrick skin types IV through VI, which may be at higher risk for post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation with other medium-depth peels. This versatility makes it an excellent choice for a diverse range of patients seeking meaningful skin improvement. To maintain your results after completing your initial treatment series, our team may recommend periodic maintenance peels every three to four months alongside a personalized at-home skincare regimen featuring medical-grade products available at our practice.
