When considering skin rejuvenation, understanding the differences between treatments is key. Both VI Peels and traditional chemical peels aim to enhance skin texture and address common concerns like acne scars, fine lines, and pigmentation. Here's how they compare:
Traditional Chemical Peels
- Depth & Customization: Available in light, medium, or deep intensities, catering to different skin concerns.
- Ingredients: Typically uses glycolic, salicylic, or lactic acid.
- Recovery: Ranges from minimal downtime for light peels to significant downtime for deeper treatments.
- Results: Gradual improvement with multiple sessions often needed.
VI Peel
- Advanced Formula: Combines TCA, Retinoic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Phenol, and Vitamin C for comprehensive treatment.
- Targeted Results: Designed for aging skin, acne, hyperpigmentation, and more.
- Downtime: Minimal, with peeling starting 3 days post-treatment and lasting 5-7 days.
- Comfort: Less discomfort during application compared to deeper chemical peels.
Which Should You Choose?
If you’re seeking a gentle introduction to chemical exfoliation or need milder treatment, traditional peels are a great option. For those with more specific concerns like severe acne or discoloration and looking for faster results, the VI Peel may be more effective.
