Medical Peel,
Brightened Result
VI Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel formulated specifically for noticeable resurfacing without the harsh recovery of traditional medium-depth peels. TCA, retinoic acid, salicylic acid, phenol, and vitamin C — combined to lift pigmentation, smooth texture, and reset skin in a single session.
Application takes about 30 minutes. Light peeling begins around day 3 and resolves by day 7 — manageable with moisturizer, SPF, and mineral makeup. Initial brightening is visible after peeling, with pigmentation and texture continuing to refine over 2–4 weeks. Most clients schedule 3–4 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart for optimal results, then maintain every 3–6 months.
- Activates collagen and elastin renewal
- Restores firmness and bounce
- Softens fine lines and refines texture
- Treats face, neck, and body
- Safe across every skin type
- Minimal downtime, surgery-free
— Is This Right For You?
Who VI Peel Is For
VI Peel is one of the most versatile medical peels available — formulated for everything from hyperpigmentation to acne. Here’s when our team typically recommends it.
Hyperpigmentation & melasma
Sun spots, post-acne marks, melasma, or uneven skin tone. The VI Peel formulation includes targeted ingredients (TCA, salicylic acid, phenol, vitamin C) that lift pigmentation while encouraging fresh, even skin to surface.
Active acne & breakouts
Active acne, congested pores, or recurring breakouts. The VI Peel Purify formulation includes salicylic acid to unclog pores, calm inflammation, and reset acne-prone skin without the stripping effect of harsher treatments.
Fine lines & dullness
Early fine lines, lackluster tone, or skin that has lost its radiance. The peel exfoliates the dull outer layer to reveal brighter, smoother skin underneath — boosted by collagen-stimulating ingredients that work over the following weeks.
Pre-event reset
You have an event in 3–4 weeks and want fresh, even, glowing skin. A single VI Peel timed correctly delivers brightened tone and softened texture — peeling resolves in about a week, leaving skin event-ready.
Your VI Peel journey
VI Peel works in five steps — from prep through full reveal. Each step is performed by a board-certified provider in our Cranston, Rhode Island studio.
- Step 01
Consultation
A conversation about your skin goals — pigmentation, acne, texture, or pre-event prep. We assess your skin tone and history to choose the right VI Peel formulation for you (Original, Precision Plus, or Purify).
- Step 02
Prep & cleanse
Skin is double-cleansed and prepped with a degreasing solution to ensure even penetration. We protect sensitive areas (lip corners, nostrils) and confirm your comfort before starting.
- Step 03
Application
The peel solution is applied in 3–5 layers over about 15–20 minutes. You may feel mild tingling or warmth that resolves on its own. The skin will appear slightly tan/yellow for the first 24 hours — that is normal.
- Step 04
Peeling phase
Light peeling begins around day 3 and resolves by day 7. Use the take-home aftercare kit (cleanser, moisturizer, SPF, retinoic acid sachets). Avoid picking — let skin shed naturally.
- Step 05
Reveal & maintenance
Brightened, smoother skin emerges around day 7. Pigmentation and texture continue refining over 2–4 weeks. Most clients schedule subsequent sessions 4–6 weeks apart, with maintenance every 3–6 months.
