VI Peels FAQ in Lexington Park, MD

How deep does VI Peel go?

VI Peels are safe for all skin types, it has a numbing agent, so it is virtually pain free and offers minimal down time. On average, one can expect flaking to peeling starting at day 3 through day 7 after treatment. The VI can range from a light to medium depth peel depending on technique and application used.

Are VI chemical peels worth it?

A VI peel is not only safe and effective for all age groups, but it targets a variety of skin concerns ranging from fine lines and acne scarring to sun damage. Starting at the skin’s surface (aka, the top layer known as the epidermis), it works to refine your pores, control oil, and increase collagen production.

Can VI Peel burn your face?

In rare cases, sensitive individuals may experience pain, a burning or stinging sensation, swelling, or extreme redness after the VI Peel. If this occurs, you should wash your face with a mild cleanser and cool water. Use of the Post peel moisturizer (included) will soothe redness or irritation.

Why does my skin look wrinkly after a chemical peel?

The likely reason that the skin does not yet look normal after your peel is that you only had your peel 4 days prior–you are still peeling. The Vitalize peel is a modified Jessner’s peel which can cause much more peeling than say a glycolic acid or salicylic acid peel. Continue to moisturize regularly.

What should you not do before a VI Peel?

Don’t exfoliate. Since a chemical peel is an in-depth exfoliation, it’s important that you don’t exfoliate for at least 1 week before your appointment. Refrain from using make-up. Avoid the sun. Stay hydrated.

How long does it take face to heal after peel?

Treated areas take about seven to 14 days to heal after a medium chemical peel, but redness might last for months. After a deep chemical peel, you’ll experience severe redness and swelling.

Do chemical peels speed up aging?

The process itself does not affect the internal aging of the skin. Chemical peeling will remove mild skin wrinkles; sun damaged spots, and pigmentation. It also will remove the leathery appearance of the skin.

What should I avoid after VI Peel?

Do not wash, touch, or apply make-up and/or sunscreen for at least 4 – 6 hours while peel is on the skin. APPLY NOTHING. If you have excessive itching or irritation prior to this time period, you may wash the treated area with a mild cleanser and water. DO NOT rub with anything harsh such as a sponge or a washcloth.

Will VI Peel remove dark spots?

A Vi Peel can dramatically lessen the appearance of dark spots, age spots, sunspots and sun-damaged skin. Even if you have found the removal of these kinds of hyperpigmentation conditions a problem in the past, the Vi Peel will work wonders.

Which is better chemical peel or Botox?

Chemical peels are also popular and they can reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, just not as well as BOTOX. The benefit of chemical peels over BOTOX is their ability to lighten scars and even skin tone. Chemical peels involve applying an acid solution to the face.
