My Peel
I use the VI Peel, a medical-grade chemical peel, with added peptides for an extra boost of glow and rejuvenation. It's a great option if you want a noticeable refresh without a long recovery.
What to Expect
Treatment day The peel takes about 30 minutes. You may feel some tingling, warmth, or itching, and you'll go home with simple aftercare instructions and soothing after-care products.
Days 1 to 2
Your skin may feel tight and look a little red or bronzed.
Days 2 to 3
Peeling usually starts, often around the mouth first.
By about day 7
Most of the peeling is done, and your fresh skin shows through.
How Many Peels Will I Need?
One peel is a great refresh before an event or a new season. For concerns like dark spots, acne, or sun damage, a series of three to four peels about four weeks apart usually works best, with maintenance every few months after that.
Pair It for Your Best Results
Peels pair beautifully with wrinkle relaxers and filler, so you can refresh your skin's tone and texture and soften lines at the same time. Ask me about combining treatments during your consult.
Frequently Asked Questions

Expect about a week of peeling, from light flaking to larger sheets. Most people go about their normal day, but you may want to plan around important events.

It's best to wait until your peeling is finished.
What should I avoid before my peel?
Stop retinoids and exfoliating products and avoid waxing and too much sun for a few days before your appointment. I'll give you exact instructions when you book.

Peels aren't recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, or if you've recently taken isotretinoin (Accutane). Let me know about any allergies, including to aspirin, and we'll review your health history at your consult.
