VI Peel Precision Plus

What to Expect During the Procedure?

The Vi peel solution is applied to the face, neck, and chest. During the application, you may feel a tingling or slight stinging sensation that lasts less than 10 seconds. The ingredients in the peel numb the skin on the first pass and cold air is directed at the treatment site for additional comfort.

The skin will appear slightly tan or reddish immediately after the peel. On the first and second days, the skin may feel slightly dry, and any pigmented areas might appear darker. The third day is when the skin begins to peel. The first signs of peeling usually begin around the mouth, and chin area but the entire treated area will quickly follow. With the use of the included Vi Derm moisturizer, clients can maintain their usual daily routine. By the eight or tenth day, the peeling should be complete, and the results are dramatic!

VI Peel Recovery Time?

Be prepared to peel for up to ten days total, with extensive peeling during three to five of those days. The Vi Precision Plus Peel has no downtime for healing but the peeling will be much more extensive than ordinary chemical peels. The amount of peeling varies between individuals. Clients who use RetinA tend to see much more flaking while clients who regularly exfoliate may experience only modest flaking. The moisturizer included with the peel will hide most of the effects, although we recommend scheduling this peel at least fourteen days prior to any social events that would be impacted by flaking and peeling skin.

This treatment should not be performed if you have taken Accutane within the past twelve months or if you are sensitive or allergic to aspirin. You should avoid the use of RetinA, Renova, or glycolic acids within one day before or after the treatment. The peel reveals new skin that is more sensitive to sunburn and this sensitivity is increased by the hydroquinone in the peel. You must protect the treated areas with sunscreen (even below clothing) and by avoiding exposure to the sun for at least fourteen days after the initial application of the peel.

How many peels can you do and how far apart should they be done?

For most patients, peels should be done three to four times a year to repair sun damage or melasma skin condition that is already present.

The frequency of the peel depends on various factors and will be determined by your skin specialist. For extremely damaged skin, the VI Peel can initially be done once a month to get quicker desired results.
