What Are Chemical and VI Peels?
A chemical peel is a professional treatment that removes the dull surface layer of your skin so healthier skin can come forward. Depending on your goals, Dr. Mahony may recommend a light, medium, or deep peel. Light peels give your skin a quick refresh with little downtime, while medium and deep peels use higher concentrations of active ingredients to make a more noticeable difference.
The VI Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel that blends trichloroacetic acid (TCA), retinoic acid, salicylic acid, phenol, and vitamin C. This combination works across multiple skin layers to reverse sun damage, soften fine lines, brighten uneven pigmentation, and even treat acne and impurities.
Both treatments work beneath the surface to trigger new cell growth and leave you with radiant skin.
Benefits of Chemical and VI Peels
With regular chemical peel treatments, you may notice a range of improvements, including:
- Smoother tone and texture for softer skin.
- Reduced appearance of fine lines for more youthful skin.
- Smaller-looking pores that make your complexion appear clearer.
- Diminished signs of sun damage and discoloration, including age spots and hyperpigmentation.
- Improved look of acne and acne scars, giving your skin a more even surface.
- Minimal downtime compared to other treatments, so you can get back to your routine quickly.
What to Expect During a Session
Your treatment is performed in Dr. Mahony’s Westport office and usually takes less than an hour. You may feel mild tingling or warmth while the solution is applied.
In the days after, your skin will begin to flake or peel, and you’ll see the fresher layer beneath. Temporary redness or sensitivity is normal, but it should fade quickly.
