What is the VI Peel™?

The VI Peel™ is a medical grade chemical peel that reduces wrinkles, lines, blemishes, scars, sun damage, spots, uneven skin tone, and other skin imperfections via a synergistic blend of powerful ingredients suitable for all skin types. The VI Peel™ repairs the skin by removing the dead outer layers and exposing the fresh, healthy skin underneath to reveal a dramatic improvement and healthier, more youthful appearance.

Benefits of VI Peel™

The VI Peel™ improves the skin’s tone, texture, and luminosity. It reduces and may completely eliminate age spots, freckles, and hyper-pigmentation, including melasma. It softens and may actually remove fine lines and wrinkles. It clears up acne flare-ups and dramatically reduces – and may even eliminate – scars caused by acne and other signs of skin damage. The VI Peel™ also stimulates the production of collagen, a substance that naturally repairs the skin, providing firmer, smoother, and younger-looking skin.  The VI Peel™ may be used in combination with other treatments.

Who Is a Good Candidate for a VI Peel™?

How Is the VI Peel™ Applied?

First, the skin is cleansed; then the VI Peel™ will is applied topically to your skin by means of a soft brush or applicator.  As the chemical begins to work, some patients may experience a warm, tingly sensation that quickly subsides.  The procedure takes only 20 to 30 minutes, but must the chemical peel must remain on the skin for five hours following initial application.

What Can I Expect During Recovery?

No recovery is required after a VI Peel™.  Peeling lasts approximately two to three days and may be easily managed with the post-peel kit that Dr. Rubinstein will provide with the peel.  For one or two weeks following the peel, you should avoid skin-exfoliating products such as glycolic acid and retinols.  Dr. Rubinstein also recommends that you avoid direct and prolonged exposure to the sun following a chemical peel such as the VI Peel™ and refrain from touching or pulling on the skin as it goes through the peeling process. The VI Peel™ works best when you just let it peel naturally.
