Targeted Treatments for Clearer, Brighter Skin
Dermaplane
Dermaplaning uses a sterile, surgical blade to mechanically exfoliate, removing built-up dead skin cells and fine vellus hair. This promotes epidermal renewal, enhances product penetration, and reduces superficial congestion. Clinically, it improves skin texture, reduces barrier buildup, and creates an ideal canvas for treatments and makeup application. Monthly dermaplaning supports healthy cellular turnover and prevents the dullness that comes with surface buildup.
Ideal for: Patients seeking smoother skin, improved product absorption, and pre-event glow.
Pigment Chemical Peel
This medium-depth, medical-grade peel is formulated to reduce hyperpigmentation, melasma, and sun damage at the cellular level. Powered by a synergistic blend of TCA, retinoic acid, salicylic acid, L-ascorbic acid, and phenol, the VI Peel Precision Plus suppresses melanin production and accelerates skin cell turnover to lift pigment and restore skin clarity.
Patients typically see improved brightness, more even tone, and a reduction in discoloration after a single treatment—with progressive improvement over a series.
Safe for all skin tones and Fitzpatrick types. Best results are seen in a series of 3, spaced 4–6 weeks apart.
Ideal for: Melasma, sun damage, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone.
Acne Chemical Peel
This medical-grade chemical peel is designed to treat both active acne and the post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation that often follows. Powered by a synergistic blend of salicylic acid (to decongest pores), benzoyl peroxide (to target P. acnes bacteria), kojic acid, and Vitamin C (to calm inflammation and brighten the skin), this formulation works on multiple layers of the skin simultaneously. The acne peels also targets lingering discoloration and textural irregularities from past breakouts, making it ideal for patients struggling with both acne and scarring. This peel not only helps calm breakouts, but actively improves the appearance of acne scars and discoloration over time.
Safe for all skin types and recommended monthly for optimal results.
Ideal for: Active acne, oily skin, acne scars, pigmentation from past breakouts.
