VI Peel™
Regain your youthful glow and radiance with VI Peel! Using a synergistic blend of effective ingredients, this chemical peel provides a deep-peeling effect without the pain and downtime associated with other types of peels. It can improve the tone, texture, and clarity of the skin, giving you an overall radiant glow.
What is VI Peel?
It contains a special formulation designed to address a number of skin issues. You can turn to this peel to improve the tone, texture, and clarity of the skin, as well as:
- Soften lines and wrinkles
- Reduce or eliminate age spots and hyperpigmentation
- Clear acne skin conditions
- Reduce or eliminate acne scars
- Stimulate the production of collagen
How does VI Peel work?
The treatment can take between 45 and 60 minutes, depending on the area of concern. The procedure begins with thoroughly cleansing the skin, followed by the application of the solution. There are 2 phases involved in a VI Peel:
- 1st phase – The formula targets and penetrates the cells on the skin surface. This is then followed by wiping the skin using a retinol towel.
- 2nd phase – The solution penetrates deeper into the dermis, where there is a buildup of toxins and dead skin cells.
After the application of the solution, you will need to wait 4 to 6 hours for it to rest on your skin. You will have to go home with the solution on your face and wash it after a few hours with the cleanser provided.
After 2 to 3 days, you will experience some peeling, which will continue for up to 6 days. During this period, you’ll notice skin color changes in yellowish, brownish, or reddish tones. When the peeling is complete, you’ll see healthier and more radiant skin with a brighter complexion.

FAQs
How does VI Peel differ from other types of chemical peels?
Here are the things that make it different from conventional or other types of chemical peels:
- Treats/improves a range of skin concerns – VI Peel promotes healthier and more radiant skin by addressing acne, scars, dark spots, lines and wrinkles, and more.
- Safe for delicate areas like around the eyes – Unlike other types of chemical peels, it can be used on the skin around the eyes. It can help improve the appearance of crow’s feet or wrinkles at the corner of the eyes.
- Can be used on different areas of the body – Apart from the face and neck, it can also be used on the chest, hands, arms, and legs.
- Doesn’t require skin preparations – Certain chemical peels require preconditioning before the treatment. This is not necessary with VI Peel, making it an ideal option if you have a busy lifestyle.
How many VI Peel treatments will you need?
A single VI Peel treatment can provide visible results, but multiple treatments may be required depending on your concerns and beauty goals. You might require multiple treatments if you have acne, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and enlarged pores.
Which VI Peel is right for you?
The original VI Peel can improve the overall texture and quality of your skin. But for specific skin concerns like acne or related symptoms, VI Peel Purify may be the ideal option. If it is sun damage or hyperpigmentation you’re concerned about, VI Peel Precision Plus is worth considering.
Does VI Peel hurt?
It is a gentle treatment and virtually painless. You may feel a slight tingling sensation after the application of the solution, but this is tolerable and does not require any type of anesthetics or pain medication.
How long will the results of VI Peel last?
VI Peels results are long-lasting, particularly with good skincare after the treatment. You can have it done 3 to 4 times a year.
Does VI Peel have side effects or downtime?
There are no immediate side effects after VI Peel, but you’ll experience skin peeling for up to a week. Potential side effects include minor redness, temporary discoloration, and some inflammation.
Can you do VI Peel at home or on your own?
DIY peel recipes or kits may be available online, but you should never attempt to do a VI Peel or any type of chemical peel on your own. It is recommended to see an experienced aesthetician or provider, as they are trained and know how to perform the procedure the right way.
