Chemical Peel (VI Peel)

Chemical peels are a wonderful way to safely and effectively renew your skin by promoting exfoliation and cellular skin turnover. A tailored blend of acids, vitamins, and skin lighteners are applied to promote the renewal of skin – leading to a brighter, more even skin tone and complexion

VI Peel offers six uniquely formulated treatments designed to lift pigment, remove sun damage, alleviate acne and scarring, and fight fine lines and wrinkles. All our painless medium-depth VI Peels are safe for all skin types and tones with results in as little as 7 days.

The VI Peel uses a unique combination of ingredients for optimal skin renewal:

  • Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) – smooth’s deep scars and stimulates collagen growth

  • Retin-A – softens fine lines and moderate wrinkles

  • Salicylic Acid – exfoliates the tissue and acts as an anti-inflammatory agent

  • Phenol – treats deep lines and creases

  • Vitamin C – an antioxidant used to brighten the skin

  • Benzoyl Peroxide – removes bacteria, clears the pores & increases cell turnover
