What is a VI Peel?
The VI Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel that penetrates both the outer and middle layers of the skin to stimulate cellular turnover and collagen production. Unlike traditional peels, it combines a unique blend of powerful ingredients such as TCA (trichloroacetic acid), salicylic acid, retinoic acid, and vitamin C.
This combination helps to exfoliate dead skin cells, unclog pores, and reveal fresher, healthier skin underneath.

How Does the VI Peel Work?
The VI Peel works by gently exfoliating the top layer of the skin while stimulating deeper layers to produce new collagen and elastin. After application, the solution remains on your skin for several hours, allowing the active ingredients to penetrate effectively.
Within a few days, your skin will begin to peel, shedding damaged layers and revealing a smoother, clearer complexion.
