Question 1

What is the VI PEEL and what does it treat?

Accepted Answer

The VI PEEL is a skin resurfacing chemical peel that stimulates collagen and increases cellular turnover to reveal smoother and more radiant skin.   VI PEEL has a peel for each skin concern.   With 5 custom blends targeted for each patients needs, the VI Peel treats all skin concerns including ageing skin, fine lines, active acne, acne scaring, melasma, sun damage, keratosis pilaris and more.   VI PEEL can also be used on the body. Visit our VI Peel Body page to learn more.

Question 2

How will I look immediately after a VI PEEL? When will I peel?

Accepted Answer

Your skin will appear slightly tanned or yellow/brown immediately after the peel solution has been applied to your skin.   On the first and the second day, the skin will also begin to tighten however generally there are no signs of peeling visible at this stage.   Pigmentation may appear slightly darker before peeling. On day three the peeling usually begins and starts around the mouth and chin area.   Most of the peeling should be finished by day six or day seven. If you have had the VI Peel with Precision or Precision Plus boosters then a secondary peel may occur around day seven.

Question 3

Can I still do my normal activities after having my VI PEEL?

Accepted Answer

There are no restrictions. We recommend avoiding heavy sweating for the first few days after the peel. Normal activities can be resumed immediately after the peel has been applied.

Question 4

What does the treatment feel like and does it hurt?

Accepted Answer

The VI Peel is a very comfortable treatment.   You will only experience a slight tingling sensation, which subsides after a few minutes. The VI Peel contains a special numbing ingredient which makes the peel much more comfortable than others currently on the market.

Question 5

When will I see the results of my VI Peel?

Accepted Answer

It will take about 4 days after you finish peeling for your skin to return back to its regular PH level and for results to start to become visible.   Around 2 weeks* after your peel will notice that the tone and texture of the skin will be improved resulting in a healthy luminous glow.   Hyper-pigmentation may be reduced or eliminated depending on its severity (more severe pigmentation usually requires several treatments). The Vi Peel also stimulates collagen production over time which means you may continue to see improvement in your skin quality months after your peel.*

Question 6

How many treatments will I need to see an improvement?

Accepted Answer

A single VI Peel will achieve significant repair and add a healthy glow to the skin.   Some conditions like acne scars, enlarged pores, hyper-pigmentation and melasma might require a series of 2 -4 peels.

Question 7

Do I need to use skincare to maintain my VI Peel results?

Accepted Answer

To keep your skin looking beautiful you need to maintain the health of your skin at home.   Just as you care for proper dental health between dental checkups, similarly you will have to also care for your skin between peels.   The VI Derm skin care system helps to maintain the results of the Vi Peel and continues to improve your skin quality over time. You will begin undo the positive effects of the peel if it is not followed by adequate skincare and vigilant sun protection.
