Book Your PeelWhat is VI Peel?
VI Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel that goes beyond traditional peels to deliver dramatic results with minimal discomfort and downtime. It's a game-changer for treating multiple skin concerns in a single treatment.
The VI Peel formula contains a synergistic blend of powerful ingredients: TCA, Retin-A, Salicylic Acid, Phenol, and Vitamin C. This combination addresses aging, acne, hyperpigmentation, and skin texture all at once.
Unlike harsher peels of the past, VI Peel is virtually painless to apply and safe for all skin types and tones - including darker skin that may not be candidates for other chemical peels.
At MiraMed, we offer several VI Peel formulations tailored to your specific concerns, whether that's anti-aging, acne, or stubborn pigmentation like melasma.
