Chemical peels are a non-surgical cosmetic treatment that have been used for decades to exfoliate the surface of the skin while stimulating refreshed, rejuvenated skin underneath. The problem with deeper chemical peels is that they can require extensive downtime while the skin heals. One of the latest options in chemical peels is a minimal downtime option – the facial VI Chemical Peel. At LL Aesthetics, we offer VI peel treatment at our clinic in Miami Beach, FL.
What Is VI Peel?
The VI peel is trademarked and created by Vitality Institute Medical Products. This medium-depth chemical peel is designed to exfoliate the top layer of the epidermis while penetrating down to the dermis. The ingredients include exfoliating acids, retinol and vitamins that can improve aging skin issues and other concerns such as acne or undesirable pigmentation.
Benefits of Facial Peels
Our patients of all ages can benefit from a VI peel. Whether you just want to give your skin a healthy, youthful glow or you have specific skin concerns, a facial peel may be the solution. Some of the benefits of a VI peel include:
- Improved acne breakouts
- Reduced acne scars and other scarring
- Reduced lines and wrinkles
- Faded skin spots – sun spots and freckles
- Lighten discolored or hyperpigmented skin
- Good for all skin types
VI peel is effective due to its combination of ingredients. The phenol helps to address pigmentation issues while retinol improves acne. The acids can stimulate the production of collagen and elastin, which improve the tone, texture and firmness of the skin for months to come.
VI peels can be applied in about 30 minutes but are left on the skin for up to 6 hours. Once the peel is rinsed away, the skin will begin the exfoliation process. In the following days, the top skin will peel away and your new, glowing skin will be revealed.
