When to do a medium-depth VI Peel?

So you may be wondering, how do you fold in a peel amongst all the things? The time really is anytime!

It's especially great when you’re feeling like your skin is plateauing and you just need a glow-up, or simply to amp up your skincare results by creating a fresh canvas to absorb all the goodness of your skincare.

We also love layering in the VI Peel in-between microneedling sessions, in preparation for the holidays—shedding some skin can only mean good things!

How does a VI Chemical Peel work?

Similar to other chemical peels, the VI Peel penetrates the top layer of your skin, called the epidermis, reaching into the dermis underneath. It works by exfoliating your skin and stimulating the production of collagen.

The peel is made up of a unique blend of ingredients that include trichloroacetic acid, phenol, salicylic acid, Vitamin C, and tretinoin - a powerhouse of active ingredients that are gentle enough to be safely used on the face, chest, hands, and back. This type of peel can be used on all skin types and tones!

What to expect from the VI Peel?

There’s even more good news: this amazing peel is safe for all skin types and tones. You can expect results within 7 days, and it continues to get better!
