Advanced Chemical Peel for Brighter, Clearer, Newer-Looking Skin

Reveal a fresh complexion that feels smoother and looks brighter and clearer. VI Peel medical-grade chemical peels are performed by our licensed medical estheticians at Stonebriar Spa in Frisco, TX. The professional formula exfoliates damaged skin and encourages the skin’s natural renewal process. It is formulated for all skin tones.

What Is a VI Peel?

A VI Peel is a medical-grade chemical peel that exfoliates the skin’s outer layers to help treat hyperpigmentation, acne, sun damage, and early signs of aging. It is a popular choice for clients dealing with melasma and dark spots. Unlike many traditional peels, VI Peel combines several active ingredients in one blend:

• Trichloroacetic acid (TCA): Exfoliates damaged surface skin and supports cell turnover
• Salicylic acid: Penetrates pores to help clear congestion and breakouts
• Retinoic acid (retinoid): Supports collagen production and helps even out skin tone
• Phenol: Provides a built-in anesthetic effect for comfort during treatment
• Vitamin C: Brightens the skin and helps protect it while it renews

The formula loosens and lifts away damaged skin cells, which encourages your skin’s natural renewal process. As the treated layer peels over the following days, fresher, smoother, more even-toned skin is revealed. Because the peel is a medium-depth treatment with minimal discomfort, many clients find it more comfortable than they expected.

Skin Concerns a VI Peel Can Treat

• Acne and blemishes: Helps clear active breakouts and reduce acne-causing bacteria
• Hyperpigmentation: Helps lift stubborn discolorations, including melasma
• Dark spots: Breaks up concentrated pockets of pigment and fades them over time
• Sun damage: Removes damaged, dead skin cells and encourages healthy cellular turnover
• Uneven skin tone: Smooths patchy areas by shedding damaged outer layers to give a more uniform complexion
• Fine lines and wrinkles: Helps smooth the appearance of fine lines
• Rough skin texture: Peels off built-up dead skin cells to leave the surface softer
• Enlarged pores: Helps clear pores and minimizes their appearance
• Post-acne marks: Helps fade post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
• The appearance of acne scars: Supports collagen production to improve the look of scarring
• Dull or tired-looking skin: Exfoliates dead surface cells to reveal fresh new skin

VI Peel vs. Microchanneling vs. Microdermabrasion

What’s Best for You?

Choose VI Peel if:

• Your primary concern is pigmentation and melasma: Chemical peels excel at breaking up hyperpigmentation, stubborn sun damage, dark spots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
• You want comprehensive skin renewal: It can address active acne, uneven texture, and fine lines simultaneously while shedding dull skin.
• You’re comfortable with a few days of peeling: Most clients can return to normal activities right away, though visible peeling lasts 2–5 days.

Choose Microchanneling if:

• Your primary concern is scarring and firmness: Well suited for deep acne scars, texture irregularities, skin laxity, and fine lines/wrinkles.
• You want collagen production without chemical peeling: It triggers a natural wound-healing response and allows deep absorption of growth factor serums without stripping skin layers.
• You want minimal downtime: You need minimal disruption—redness typically subsides within 24–48 hours, with no peeling phase.

Choose Microdermabrasion if:

• Your primary concern is immediate glow and maintenance: Well suited for clearing clogged pores, removing dry skin buildup, and refreshing a dull complexion right before an event.
• You want zero downtime: You can apply makeup and return to normal activities immediately.
• You’re on a budget or looking for regular upkeep: Great as a monthly maintenance procedure or an entry-level professional skin treatment.

What to Expect During a VI Peel Treatment

Our 3-step process is performed by our licensed medical estheticians with clinical precision in a serene, luxury spa setting in Frisco, TX.

1. Consultation: You will meet with your medical esthetician, who will do a free skin assessment. If it has been a while since you have had a facial, they may recommend an Eminence Organic Facial, GM Collin Facial, or Glo2 Facial to make sure your skin is optimized so that you will get the best results from your VI Peel. You may also discuss how to coordinate different treatments such as Microchanneling and Neogen Plasma to maximize your results for different skin concerns.
2. Cleanse and prep: Your treatment begins with a double cleanse to clear surface impurities. This facilitates maximum absorption of the peel.
3. Application: Two to five layers will be applied by your esthetician, depending on how your skin absorbs the product. The VI Peel application is quick, and most clients find it comfortable thanks to a built-in anesthetic.

The entire process takes 30–45 minutes.

VI Peel Aftercare and Downtime

Immediately after the product application you may look or feel flushed, but that feeling typically resolves within an hour. Your individual recovery can vary depending on skin sensitivity.

Your VI Peel treatment also includes a take-home treatment protocol and a convenient app that provides step-by-step aftercare instructions. It answers common questions throughout the peeling process and lasts for 7 days. This personalized support helps you confidently care for your skin at home and follow the recommended post-treatment routine. Two to five days following your VI Peel, the treated skin will naturally exfoliate and peel as part of the skin-renewal process. As the outer layer sheds, fresh, healthier-looking skin is revealed. Results will vary depending on how your skin reacts and the degree of your initial skin concerns.
