VI Peel
The VI Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel known for being fast, effective, and comfortable to receive. It's professionally formulated to deliver maximum results with minimal downtime. Over time, dead skin cells build up on the surface, contributing to blemishes, wrinkles, and uneven tone — chemical peels safely strip away that buildup to reveal fresh, healthy skin underneath.

What should I know about VI Peel?
Expect to have a few days of “social downtime,” starting three to five days after the treatment when your skin starts to peel—especially if you get the stronger VI Peel Precision formula.
Peeling or picking off flaking skin could leave you at risk for infection or scarring, so resist the urge.
People with acne-prone skin may have new breakouts, commonly called purging, following the treatment. “The VI Peel can cause blemishes to surface, but the solution will purify blemish-prone skin and clear up the acne below the surface as well as light acne scars.
It’s not uncommon to experience post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation two or three weeks following treatment. It can make discoloration you’re trying to treat (such as melasma) temporarily darker, but it’s rarely permanent. The pigmentation often fades away on its own, but it can also be treated with certain laser treatments.
Some people need several treatments to see the full benefits, and this treatment can be down 2-3 times per year.
VI Peel FAQs
<
How long is the downtime after a VI Peel?
Most people experience a few days of "social downtime" starting three to five days after treatment, when the skin begins to visibly peel — especially with the stronger VI Peel Precision formula. It's normal, but you should resist the urge to pick or peel flaking skin, as this can increase the risk of infection or scarring.
Can a VI Peel cause breakouts?
People with acne-prone skin may experience temporary breakouts, sometimes called "purging," after treatment. This happens as the peel works to clear blemishes below the surface, and it typically resolves as the skin heals.
Will my skin get darker or discolored after treatment?
Some patients experience post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation two to three weeks after a VI Peel, which can temporarily darken areas being treated for discoloration, such as melasma. This is rarely permanent and usually fades on its own, though it can also be treated with certain laser therapies if needed.
How many treatments will I need?
Results vary by patient. Some people see full benefits after a single peel, while others need a series of treatments. Most patients repeat the VI Peel two to three times per year to maintain results.
Is a VI Peel safe for all skin tones?
Yes. The VI Peel is considered one of the safer chemical peel options for people with olive, medium, or deep skin tones, who typically face a higher risk of hyperpigmentation or hypopigmentation with other peels.
Which VI Peel formula is right for me?
Nuderma offers five VI Peel formulas — Original, Precision, Precision Plus, Purify, and Purify with Precision Plus — each targeting different concerns from fine lines to acne to hyperpigmentation. Your provider will help determine the right formula and treatment plan for your skin.
