VI Peel in Neenah, WI
Five days of peeling. Then even tone.
The VI peel is the strongest chemical peel at our Neenah studio, a medium depth peel for melasma, sun damage and acne scarring. Expect about five days of visible peeling, so it is planned around your calendar rather than booked on a whim.
What it does
VI Medium Depth Peel at Illumatox.
The VI peel is a medium depth blend that resurfaces past the surface layer, which is why it reaches pigmentation and scarring that lighter peels cannot.
It sheds visibly. Peeling begins around day two or three and finishes by about day five, and the result shows once that has finished rather than during it.
What follows is noticeably more even tone, and on melasma and post-acne marking it is the most effective single thing we do.
Plan it. Do not book it the week before an event, and in Wisconsin start a course in autumn rather than spring so you have low-UV months while the skin is light-sensitive.
What it costs
$350, member $325
Common questions
What people ask about vi medium depth peel.
How much does vi medium depth peel cost in Neenah?
VI Medium Depth Peel is $350, or $325 for members at our Neenah studio. Every price is published on our pricing page. Nothing is quote-on-request.
What is a VI peel?
A medium depth chemical peel from the Vitality Institute: a blend of acids that resurfaces past the top layer of skin. The appointment itself is the easy part. The work happens over the following five days as the treated skin sheds, and the more even tone shows once it has.
How bad is the peeling, really?
Visible enough that people will notice. It starts around the mouth on day two or three and works outward, and by day four you are shedding in sheets. It is not painful, but it is not something you hide, and covering it with makeup makes it worse. Book it for a week you can be quiet in.
Can I peel it off?
No, and this is the one rule that matters. Pulling skin that has not released can leave a mark that outlasts everything the peel achieved. Let it come away on its own, keep it moisturised, and it is finished within five days.
How many will I need?
One will show you a change. A course of three at four-week intervals is what genuinely shifts melasma or acne scarring, which is why it is sold that way. For general dullness, one or two a year is plenty.
When should I book it in Wisconsin?
Autumn or winter. Freshly resurfaced skin is markedly more light-sensitive, and at this latitude the UV index sits in the low single figures from roughly October to March. Starting a course in October gives you those months before summer. A VI peel in June works against you, especially if the target is melasma.
