Thinking About a Vi Peel? Here’s What to Expect
The Vi Peel is one of our most requested treatments, and for good reason. It’s formulated with a blend of alpha-hydroxy acids and trichloroacetic acid to treat acne, hyperpigmentation, and uneven texture — all in a single in-office visit plus a 7-day at-home regimen.
WHAT RECOVERY LOOKS LIKE
The peel stays on for 4 hours after your appointment, so you’ll leave with product still on your skin. Avoid vigorous exercise or strenuous activity for 24 to 48 hours.
Skin will start visibly peeling 24 to 48 hours after treatment as it works to shed damaged surface layers. Most people see results within 7 days.
Who It’s Best For
Everyone can benefit, but it’s especially good for those dealing with acne or hyperpigmentation from breakouts or sun exposure. You may need more than one treatment, spaced at least four weeks apart, for best results.
WHAT IT TREATS
- Acne and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation: especially effective for breakout-prone skin and the dark marks left behind
- Redness and uneven tone: a more even, calm complexion as skin renews
- Dark spots and sun damage: fading freckles, sunspots, and discoloration
- Aging and texture: smoother texture and a more refreshed look over time
YOUR VI PEEL VISIT, STEP BY STEP
1
Before You Arrive
Follow any pre-peel instructions provided at booking. Avoid active irritation or recent sun exposure, and be prepared to review your skincare routine and medical history.
2
When You Arrive
You’ll talk through acne, pigmentation, and texture concerns in detail. The peel is applied evenly to the skin in-office, then you’ll be walked through the seven-day at-home regimen before you leave so you know exactly what to expect.

What It Feels Like
You may feel mild tingling or warmth as the peel is applied. The sensation is temporary. Skin often feels tight or sensitive afterward.
REAL RESULTS
RESULTS AND RECOVERY TIMELINE
Day of Treatment
Skin may look slightly red or flushed. Tightness and dryness are common. Peeling usually does not start right away.
Days 2 to 3
Peeling begins as damaged skin starts to lift. Texture may look uneven during this stage.
Days 4 to 6
By day 6 most exfoliation has subsided, starting in the peri-oral area then peeling outward — the forehead and neck are the last areas to peel. While skin is exfoliating, avoid pulling, picking, rubbing, or any premature removal of skin.
Around Day 7
Peeling is complete. Skin looks clearer, smoother, and more even in tone.
TREATMENT PLAN EXPECTATIONS
Some skin concerns require more than one peel. Treatments can be repeated at least four weeks apart, with consistent at-home care supporting longer-lasting results.
