VI Peel
in Glendale and Burbank, CA
Daily exposure to the sun can be very harmful to your skin, and if constantly neglected, the damage may become irreversible. The Skin Agency's med spa in Glendale and Burbank, CA, offers advanced skincare solutions. Our VI Peel uses a blend of exfoliating materials that break down the upper damaged layer of your skin and reveals healthy skin underneath. It improves your skin's tone, texture, and clarity while reducing age spots, sun damage, and hyperpigmentation. Learn more about how the VI Peel can benefit your skin by scheduling a consultation at The Skin Agency at our Glendale or Burbank locations.
The VI Peel is a medium-depth peel that penetrates the top layer of your skin to exfoliate and stimulate the formation of collagen and elastin—two main proteins in your body responsible for your skin’s elasticity and strength.
VI Peel treats many skin concerns, such as diminishing fine lines, improving your overall skin texture, and removing unsightly age or sun spots. Typically, a VI Peel is made up of a blend of gentle yet powerful exfoliants to be used on your face, eyelids, and other parts of your body. VI Peel is also safe for most skin types and tones.
VI Peel treats your unwanted spots and discoloration.
With Phenol as an active ingredient, VI Peel corrects your skin tone and defaults caused by sun damage or many skin conditions. VI Peel can also be beneficial for treating Keratosis Pilaris, a common skin condition in which dead skin cells clog hair follicles, producing bumps that make the skin look like chicken skin. Salicylic acid, an active peeling ingredient, can eradicate those bumps for smoother, softer skin. It can also eliminate acne by removing the skin’s outer layer, reducing oil production, inflammation, and erasing acne scars.
You are an ideal candidate if you have skin issues like fine wrinkles, clogged pores, discoloration, freckles, and dull-looking skin.
The VI Peel works best on fine lines, so people with deep wrinkles and sagging skin should consider other treatment methods. Although VI Peel in Burbank is suitable for all skin types and colors, it is better to learn how to avoid treatment complications to avoid discoloration if you have dark skin. The VI Peel is not recommended for pregnant or breastfeeding women.
Your VI Peel session typically takes about 30 minutes.
Your provider will cleanse your skin to remove any oil or dirt, then the first layer of VI Peel solution will be applied, and you may experience tingling or numbness. After that, the second layer will be added, and that’s when your skin is going to frost or turn white. The whole procedure is quite comfortable. After four to six hours, you can wash off the peel, and your skin will start to peel about three days later to reveal fresher, brighter skin.
Following the treatment, your skin may appear tan, red, or yellow.
It is temporary and fades within minutes. Do not apply any sunscreen or makeup for at least six hours after your treatment. The results last for about three to four months with proper aftercare. The frequency of your sessions depends on your skin condition and the results you desire, but you have to wait for at least four to six weeks before you do your next Glendale VI Peel.

It is relatively pain-free. You can return to your normal routine right after your session.
You should avoid any exfoliating and peeling products at least three days before your session or any product that might be irritating or drying.
Wash your face with a mild cleanser and water about six hours after the VI Peel application, do not apply any cream or lotion before you wash the peel off. After your skin starts the peeling process apply a moisturizer continuously, and of course avoid direct sunlight and always wear your sunscreen.
Generally, VI Peel is well tolerated, but some people may experience a burning sensation, skin redness, swelling, blistering, itchiness and dry skin, and even an allergic reaction. People with dark skin can develop discoloration after the peeling session.
