What is VI Peel?

Sun, hormones, and time leave their mark, in uneven tone, rough texture, and the kind of discoloration that concealer no longer quite covers. The VI Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel formulated to address both pigment and texture at once, working beneath the surface to accelerate cell turnover and interrupt the signals that drive conditions like melasma and post-acne discoloration. It is one of the few peels strong enough to produce meaningful change and calibrated enough to work across a range of skin tones. The result is skin that reads clearer, smoother, more even, not resurfaced, renewed.

Is This For You? 

You are not bothered by a single spot. It is the overall picture, the tone that has shifted, the texture that catches light in ways it did not used to, the patches that no brightening serum has touched. You want real change, and you are willing to peel for it.

Best for: melasma · sun damage · post-acne discoloration · uneven skin tone · acne scarring · rough or dull texture · fine surface lines

What to Expect 

Your protocol begins with a comprehensive skin analysis where we assess pigment distribution, texture variation, and your skin’s tolerance threshold. We discuss your timeline, lifestyle constraints, and aesthetic priorities to ensure alignment. Application is methodical, layered precisely, left to penetrate for a prescribed duration, then neutralized. Over the following week, you will experience controlled peeling as damaged tissue releases and renewed architecture emerges. Visible correction appears within seven to ten days, with continued refinement over the following month. Most guests achieve optimal outcomes through a series of treatments spaced strategically across seasons. We guide this progression together, adjusting protocols as your skin evolves.

Benefits
  • Pigmentation visibly reduces, melasma, sun spots, post-acne marks
  • Skin texture smooths at the surface and beneath it
  • Cell turnover accelerates, clearing congestion over time
  • Tone becomes more even without a flattened or unnatural finish
  • Skin reads brighter, not from product sitting on top, but from within
Process & Downtime

When you arrive, your provider will assess your skin and discuss what you are seeing, the specific areas, the history, what has and has not worked before. The VI Peel solution is applied in-office; the application takes about 30 minutes and most people feel a mild tingling that settles quickly.

In the days that follow, your skin will begin to peel, typically starting around day three and completing by day seven. This is the process working. You will leave with a full aftercare kit and clear guidance on what to expect at each stage.

Downtime: Plan for 5 to 7 days of visible peeling. The skin will look and feel sensitive during this window. Most clients return to normal activity within a week.

Results: Visible improvement is typically apparent once the peel cycle is complete. For deeper concerns like melasma or acne scarring, a series of treatments spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart produces the most meaningful outcomes. That is when your provider will assess and decide with you what comes next.

Research

The VI Peel formula combines trichloroacetic acid, salicylic acid, retinoic acid, phenol, and vitamin C, a synergistic blend clinically studied for efficacy across skin tones including Fitzpatrick types IV through VI, where many peels carry a higher risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. It is one of the few medical-grade peels with published data supporting its use in active melasma.

Five acids working in concert, including retinoic acid, which reaches the cellular level, means the VI Peel addresses the source of discoloration, not just its surface expression.
