Exfoliate Damaged Cells and Reveal Fresh, Healthy Skin

Chemical peels are dermatological treatments that involve the application of a special solution to the skin to promote exfoliation and reveal healthier layers beneath. These peels can vary in strength and address various skin concerns, such as acne, fine lines, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. By removing dead skin cells and stimulating collagen production, chemical peels enhance skin texture and clarity. At Abrams Dermatology, we proudly offer VI Peels, which are known for their effectiveness while being gentle enough for all skin types.

Chemical Peels Are the Ideal Treatment For:

  • Acne and acne scars
  • Sun damage
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Uneven skin tone
  • Hyperpigmentation
  • Large pores
  • Dull or rough skin texture
  • Melasma
  • Rosacea
  • Age spots
  • Keratosis pilaris
  • Skin laxity
  • Stretch marks

How Do VI Peels Work?

VI Peels utilize a blend of potent, medical-grade ingredients, including trichloroacetic acid (TCA), salicylic acid, phenol, and vitamin C. These components penetrate the skin’s outer layers, promoting controlled exfoliation and stimulating cell turnover. As the dead skin cells shed, the underlying layers regenerate, revealing smoother, healthier skin.

The acids target specific concerns, such as acne and hyperpigmentation, while enhancing collagen production for improved skin elasticity. The result is a revitalized complexion with reduced signs of aging, enhanced tone, and diminished blemishes.

The Unique Benefits of VI Peels:

  • Safe for all skin types
  • Minimal downtime and quick recovery
  • Effective in treating various skin concerns
  • Stimulates collagen production for improved skin elasticity
  • Promotes an overall radiant complexion
  • Customizable to meet individual skin needs
  • Comfortable application process with minimal discomfort

Chemical Peels FAQs

What Can I Expect During a Chemical Peel?

During your chemical peel, the provider will cleanse your skin to remove any impurities. Then, a solution containing exfoliating agents will be applied to your skin. You may experience a tingling or mild burning sensation as the peel works. The duration of the treatment typically ranges from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the type of peel and your specific needs. Afterward, the solution will be neutralized, and you may receive post-treatment instructions to ensure optimal results.

Are VI Peels Painful?

VI Peels cause minimal discomfort. While you may experience mild discomfort during the application, the process is generally quick, and any sensations subside shortly after treatment. Your provider can discuss pain management options if you have concerns about discomfort.

How Long is the Recovery Time After a Chemical Peel?

Recovery time after a VI Peel is relatively short. Most patients experience some redness and peeling that begins within a few days and can last up to a week. While you can generally return to your daily activities right away, it’s best to avoid strenuous exercise and direct sun exposure during the first few days. Your aesthetic practitioner will provide specific aftercare instructions to help you manage the healing process effectively.

How Often Can I Get Chemical Peels?

For optimal results, it’s typically recommended to schedule a VI Peel every 4 to 6 weeks. This allows your skin enough time to heal and regenerate between treatments. Depending on your skin concerns and goals, your provider may adjust this schedule to suit your needs.
