VI Peel Chemical Peels
At Lifeext Ender Clinic, we're thrilled to introduce the VI Peel, a medium-depth, medical-grade chemical peel. This painless yet effective peel works wonders in enhancing skin tone, texture, and clarity, while delivering numerous anti-aging benefits. Suitable for all skin types and ethnicities, we recommend a series of 3-4 VI Peels for optimal results.
What Is a VI Peel?
The VI Peel stands as a medium-strength, medical-grade chemical peel, adept at diminishing signs of aging such as fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, hyperpigmentation, melasma, and uneven skin texture. Additionally, it addresses acne and acne scarring, and serves as a proactive measure against aging for younger skin. By delicately removing the epidermis and upper dermal layers, the VI Peel replaces them with smoother, brighter skin.
Containing a proprietary blend of active ingredients like salicylic acid, trichloroacetic acid (TCA), phenol, vitamin C, and retinoic acid, the VI Peel is safe for all skin types. It’s a virtually painless procedure with minimal downtime, suitable for the face, neck, chest, arms, back, and legs.
What Are the Benefits of a VI Peel?
- Enhanced Skin Tone, Texture, and Clarity: Achieve a more radiant complexion.
- Reduction of Age Spots and Hyperpigmentation: Say goodbye to uneven skin tone.
- Softening of Fine Lines and Wrinkles: Rejuvenate your skin for a smoother appearance.
- Acne and Scar Reduction: Combat acne and minimize scarring for clearer skin.
- Stimulation of Collagen Production: Enjoy firmer, more youthful-looking skin
What Ingredients Are in a VI Peel?
The VI Peel comprises TCA, retinoic acid, salicylic acid, phenol, and vitamin C, working synergistically to remove damaged skin layers safely. Depending on the specific VI Peel variant, additional ingredients like hydroquinone, kojic acid, benzoyl peroxide, and hydrocortisone may be included. This unique blend promotes cellular turnover, refining the skin's surface for a clearer, firmer, and more youthful appearance.
