VI Peels™ will improve the tone, texture and clarity of the skin; reduce age spots, improve hyperpigmentation (including melasma), soften lines and wrinkles; clear acneic skin conditions; reduce or eliminate acne scars; and stimulate the production of collagen, for firmer, more youthful skin.

Prior to receiving treatment I have communicated with the Practitioner about any conditions or medications that may contraindicate this procedure.
I understand that there may be some degree of discomfort such as burning, stinging, redness, heat or tightness during and a week after the procedure.
I understand that there is no guarantee of the final results of the peel. Occasionally hyperpigmentation may develop which may persist for a week or months after the peel.
I understand although complications are very rare, sometimes they may occur. In the event of any complications, I will immediately contact the Physician/Clinician who performed the treatment.
I understand if I have any acne condition in the skin the peel may bring out oils and bacteria from below the surface and can cause an actual breakout.
I understand that maintenance of VI Peel™ treatments are necessary to maintain results as well as the recommended VI DERM™ skin care regimen and SPF50+.
I understand the extended direct sun exposure including tanning beds are strictly prohibited before and after receiving the VI Peel™.
I understand no activities involving excessive sweating can be done for 72-96 hours (exercise, sauna, hot tub steam room)
I understand that I must protect my skin with VI DERM™ SPF 50+and avoid sun exposure during the 7 day exfoliation process.
​
I understand that this is an elective cosmetic procedure.
​
I understand that no other chemical peels, facial machine brushes or medical device (laser, IPL, etc) treatments may be performed on my skin until my physician/clinician releases me to do so.
