VI Peels
The VI Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel designed to rejuvenate and refresh your skin. It targets fine lines, wrinkles, acne, acne scars, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone. Suitable for all skin types, this peel combines powerful ingredients to exfoliate, promote cellular turnover, and stimulate collagen production. The result is smoother, clearer, and more youthful-looking skin with minimal downtime. MidAmerica Plastic Surgery & Medical Spa offers the following VI Peels:
- VI Peel
- VI Precision Plus
- VI Purify
The Peeling Process
The VI Peel offers a non-invasive approach to healthier, younger looking skin with very little downtime. VI Peels are suitable for all skin types and will help with acne scars, fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, and pore size.
- Application: The peel solution is applied on the skin in layers. You may feel a slight stinging or tingling sensation. The VI Peel does contain a numbing agent, which kicks in pretty fast making the peel very tolerable.
- Initial Reaction: Your skin will be appear to be an orangish tanned color immediately after application.
- Peeling: Peeling will typically begin 2-3 days after the application and will conclude within a week.
- Healing: As the old skin sheds, new, healthier skin is revealed underneath.
For the best results, we recommend a series of VI Peels. Typically, a series of 3-4 peels spaced out about 3-6 weeks can provide optimal results. This approach allows for cumulative benefits, addressing deeper skin concerns and promoting long-term skin health.
