What Is a VI Peel?
VI Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel that helps exfoliate damaged surface skin while encouraging brighter, smoother-looking skin underneath. It is commonly used to improve discoloration, melasma, sun damage, acne, acne marks, rough texture, fine lines, acne scars, and early signs of aging.
What Can VI Peel Help Improve?
- Aging skin and fine lines
- Dark spots and sun damage
- Melasma and stubborn pigmentation
- Acne and acne-prone skin
- Acne scars and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
- Uneven skin tone and texture
- Dullness and rough skin
- Overall skin brightness and clarity
VI Peel Precision Plus
For patients with discoloration, melasma, sun damage, or post-acne dark marks, VI Peel Precision Plus may be recommended. This formula is designed to target pigmentation while promoting rapid skin cell turnover for a more even-looking complexion.
Dr. Alex Explains VI Peel
In this video, Dr. Alex Eshaghian explains how VI Peel works, who may be a good candidate, and what types of skin concerns it can help improve, including pigmentation, acne, acne scars, sun damage, and signs of aging.
VI Peel Demonstration
Watch a VI Peel demonstration to see what the in-office treatment process looks like. The peel is applied during a brief appointment, followed by detailed post-treatment instructions for home care.
What to Expect
Your treatment begins with an evaluation of your skin type, concerns, pigmentation pattern, acne history, and skincare routine. The peel is applied in-office, and you will be given detailed aftercare instructions to follow at home.
Most patients experience peeling, dryness, and mild redness for several days after treatment. Skin often begins to look brighter and smoother once the peeling process is complete.
Is VI Peel Right for Me?
VI Peel may be a good option if you want to improve pigmentation, acne marks, acne-prone skin, sun damage, uneven tone, fine lines, acne scars, or dull texture without laser treatment. During your consultation, Dr. Alex Eshaghian will determine whether VI Peel is appropriate for your skin and goals.
For deeper acne scars or more significant texture concerns, Dr. Eshaghian may recommend combining VI Peel with other treatments such as microneedling, laser skin resurfacing, chemical peels, acne treatments, or other skin rejuvenation services.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Some patients notice improvement after one peel, while deeper pigmentation, acne scars, melasma, or significant sun damage may require a series of treatments. Maintenance peels may also be recommended depending on your skin concerns and long-term goals.
Aftercare
After a VI Peel, it is important to avoid picking or pulling peeling skin, minimize sun exposure, use sunscreen, and follow the provided post-treatment instructions carefully. Proper aftercare helps support healing and reduces the risk of irritation or unwanted pigmentation.
For long-term maintenance, Dr. Eshaghian may recommend a customized home skincare plan. You can also view available skin care products through A E Skin.
Frequently Asked Questions About VI Peel
How long does VI Peel peeling last?
Peeling commonly lasts several days after treatment. The exact amount of peeling varies depending on your skin type, skin condition, aftercare, and the specific peel used.
Is VI Peel good for melasma?
VI Peel may help improve the appearance of melasma and uneven pigmentation. Because melasma can recur, sun protection and maintenance skincare are especially important.
Is VI Peel safe for darker skin tones?
VI Peel may be appropriate for a wide range of skin tones. During your consultation, Dr. Eshaghian will evaluate your skin type, pigmentation pattern, and risk factors before recommending treatment.
Can VI Peel help acne?
VI Peel may help improve acne-prone skin by exfoliating clogged pores, improving congestion, and helping fade discoloration left behind after breakouts.
Can VI Peel help acne scars?
VI Peel may help improve acne scars, acne discoloration, and mild acne-related texture. Deeper acne scars may require additional procedures such as microneedling, laser resurfacing, or other customized treatments.
What should I avoid after VI Peel?
After a VI Peel, avoid picking peeling skin, direct sun exposure, harsh exfoliants, retinoids unless instructed, and any skincare products not included in your post-treatment plan.
Related Treatments and Products
Depending on your skin goals, Dr. Eshaghian may also recommend related treatments such as chemical peels, microneedling, laser skin resurfacing, acne treatments, or melasma-focused skin rejuvenation treatments.

Choose Your PRX Treatment Option
One PRX Treatment
A single PRX treatment is ideal for patients who want a quick skin refresh with minimal interruption to their routine. It may be purchased as a standalone treatment or used as a one-time enhancement to many other treatments at A E Skin.
A one-time PRX treatment may help improve the appearance of dullness, uneven texture, mild loss of firmness, and tired-looking skin.
A single PRX treatment may be added to treatments such as:
- Botox or Daxxify
- IPL photofacial treatments
- Selected laser treatments
- SkinPen Microneedling
- Ultra Microneedling
- Customized facials
- Other appropriate skin rejuvenation treatments
PRX and the primary treatment address different concerns. For example, Botox or Daxxify softens expression lines, while PRX focuses on the appearance and quality of the skin.
Please note: Depending on the primary procedure and the condition of your skin, PRX may be performed during the same appointment or scheduled separately.
Series of Six PRX Treatments
The complete PRX treatment program consists of six sessions performed approximately every one to two weeks.
The series is intended for patients who want PRX to serve as their primary skin revitalization treatment. Repeated sessions allow improvement in radiance, smoothness, firmness, and overall skin quality to develop progressively.
- Includes six PRX treatments
- Treatments are generally spaced every one to two weeks
- Designed for progressive skin revitalization
- Little to no downtime for most patients
- Periodic maintenance may be recommended after the series
Some patients notice brighter and more refreshed-looking skin after one session. The complete six-treatment series is recommended for more comprehensive and cumulative improvement.
What Can PRX Improve?
- Dull or tired-looking skin
- Rough or uneven texture
- Mild loss of firmness
- Early visible signs of skin aging
- Uneven-looking skin tone
- Overall radiance and skin quality
- The appearance of certain superficial imperfections
PRX is intended to improve overall skin quality. It is not a replacement for treatments intended to correct deep wrinkles, significant skin laxity, advanced acne scarring, or substantial sun damage.
Why Choose PRX?
- No physical needles
- Little to no downtime for most patients
- Quick in-office treatment
- No extensive visible peeling expected
- Can be purchased as a single treatment
- Can be added to many other aesthetic treatments
- Available as a complete six-treatment series
- Appropriate for a broad range of skin tones and types
What to Expect During Your Treatment
The skin is cleansed and prepared before the PRX solution is professionally applied using a specialized massage technique. Treatment generally takes approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
You may experience warmth, tingling, or mild discomfort during application. Temporary redness, sensitivity, tightness, dryness, or light flaking may occur afterward.
Most patients can return to their usual activities immediately after treatment.
PRX Compared with a Traditional Chemical Peel
PRX and traditional chemical peels are both applied topically, but they provide a different treatment experience.
- PRX: focuses on radiance, texture, firmness, and overall skin revitalization with little to no visible peeling.
- Light chemical peels: exfoliate surface skin to improve brightness, congestion, and mild discoloration.
- Stronger chemical peels: create more substantial exfoliation and typically involve visible peeling and additional downtime.
Dr. Alex will determine which treatment is most appropriate based on your skin, goals, and tolerance for recovery.
