One of the safest and most effective chemical peels available, the VI Peel provides patients with impressive results. The treatment is so gentle that it can be used to treat delicate areas of the face, such as underneath the eyes. The VI Peel peel works to eliminate hyperpigmentation, reduce sun damage, diminish wrinkles, and eradicate acne scarring. The body’s natural Collagen growth and Elastin production are triggered after the VI Peel, continuing to improve the appearance over several months.
VI Peel Q & A
What are the benefits of the VI Peel®?
- Soften fine lines and wrinkles
- Restore a more even skin tone
- Smooths away rough skin texture
Who is the ideal VI Peel candidate?
The VI Peel is gentle enough for everyone; it is considered safe for all ages and skin types. The ideal patient will be in overall good health, with a clear understanding of the peel process, and realistic expectations of the results. During your consultation with an MD Esthetics provider, we will help you determine if the VI Peel is the right treatment for your unique situation.
How does the VI Peel consultation work?
MD Esthetics always schedules a private consultation prior to administering an aesthetic treatment. This allows the practioner to perform a quick exam of the skin and discuss the relevant medical history, as well as review aesthetic goals and desires. The VI Peel will be discussed at length, as well as any other noninvasive options. Should the VI Peel be determined as the right procedure for you, a unique treatment plan for healthy, rejuvenated skin will be established.
What is the VI Peel process like?
After the consultation with one of the experts at MD Esthetics, you will be ready to begin your VI Peel. The provider will first thoroughly cleanse the skin, removing all traces of oil and dirt. The VI Peel solution is then applied to the face in layers, which will then remain on the skin for four hours. The office appointment will take about 30 minutes from start to finish. Your provider will instruct you on when and how to remove the VI Peel at home. An after-care kit will be provided, and we will educate you on the best way to use these products to ensure optimal results.
During the healing process, patients should avoid sun exposure, wear a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher, and refrain from using any products not specified by MD Esthetics. The facial tissue is delicate and sensitive after a VI Peel, and not carefully following our after-care instructions can lead to further tissue damage. Makeup can be worn after the treatment, although during the three to four ‘peeling’ days, you should hold off on the application of cosmetics. Moisturizer can be used during the healing process, masking the appearance of the light, feathery peeling.
What are the expected results from a VI Peel?
Three days after your VI Peel, the skin will begin to flake. This part of the process will take from three to four days, after which time new, healthy tissue will begin to show. About seven days after the peeling has finished, the final effects from your VI Peel will be visible. The skin will look luminous, smooth, and soft. Hyperpigmentation will be reduced, tone and texture will be improved, and a more radiant appearance can be seen. A single VI Peel can significantly repair sun damaged, scarred or aging skin. However, in order to achieve optimal results, more than one VI Peel is necessary. A series of four treatments, spaced four weeks apart, can fully rejuvenate and repair the skin, providing a youthful appearance.
