A VI Peel can improve several concerns at once, including acne, acne scars, uneven texture and tone, fine lines, enlarged pores, and hyperpigmentation. This medical-grade chemical peel removes damaged surface layers while encouraging skin renewal and collagen production.
You can receive VI Peels at Elite Plastic Surgery in Grand Rapids, MI. Dawn Ford, a registered nurse with years of experience in surgical intensive care and plastic surgery, oversees the practice’s aesthetic services, including VI peels.
Below are five issues this treatment addresses.
1. Acne and Acne Scars
A VI Peel is effective for active acne and acne scarring. By encouraging the shedding of damaged surface skin and renewed cell turnover, the peel can help create clearer, smoother-looking skin over time.
A professional should assess your skin and the type of acne you’re experiencing before deciding whether a chemical peel belongs in your skin care plan.
2. Uneven Skin Tone and Hyperpigmentation
Dark spots and patches of uneven pigmentation can make your complexion appear inconsistent. VI Peel helps with hyperpigmentation and uneven tone by removing layers containing excess pigment as the skin renews itself.
Because newly peeled skin is more sensitive to ultraviolet exposure, sunscreen and limiting prolonged sun exposure are especially important during recovery.
3. Rough or Uneven Texture
Skin texture may change because of acne, sun exposure, aging, or the buildup of damaged surface cells. VI Peel encourages exfoliation and cell turnover, leaving the targeted area smoother once peeling has finished.
Elite Plastic Surgery also uses VI Peel on areas beyond the face. Depending on your concerns, you can treat the face, chest, hands, and other locations.
4. Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Chemical peeling can soften fine lines by removing damaged outer skin and supporting renewal below the surface. VI Peel also stimulates collagen production, which promotes skin firmness and a smoother texture.
Deeper wrinkles may not respond the same way as fine surface lines, so your provider will help determine what level of improvement is realistic.
5. Enlarged Pores
Enlarged or noticeable pores are another reason people turn to VI Peels. Exfoliating the surface and addressing surrounding skin texture can make pores appear less prominent, particularly when roughness or congestion makes them easier to see.
Peeling usually begins about three to five days after application, with clearer-looking skin becoming visible as that phase subsides.
