VI Peel® in Lee's Summit, MO
The VI Peel® is a medium-depth, painless chemical peel designed to lift pigment, smooth texture, clear acne, and rejuvenate aging skin. Safe for all skin types and tones, this treatment produces visible results within 7 days with minimal downtime.
About the VI Peel®
The VI Peel® (Vitality Institute) is one of the most advanced and versatile chemical peels available today. It features five uniquely formulated options, each designed to target specific skin concerns, including hyperpigmentation, melasma, acne, acne scarring, sun damage, and signs of aging.
It works by lifting and exfoliating damaged skin cells while stimulating the growth of fresh, healthier cells. This controlled resurfacing process reveals brighter, smoother, and more even skin. Because it is medium-depth yet gentle, it is safe and effective for all Fitzpatrick skin types.
Many patients begin to see improvement within the first week, with continued improvement over several weeks as collagen production increases.
