What are Chemical Peels?
Chemical peels are a skin resurfacing procedure that involves applying a specialized chemical solution to gently remove damaged outer layers of skin. This carefully controlled exfoliation process encourages skin cell turnover, leading to a brighter, smoother, and even-toned complexion.
Ageless Health Institute offers a selection of VI Peels to cater to a diverse range of skin types and concerns. Chemical peels are offered in three types based on their penetration depth: superficial peels targeting the epidermis for mild concerns, medium peels reaching the upper dermis for moderate issues, and deep peels penetrating the mid-dermis for severe skin problems.
At Ageless Health Institute, we offer the advanced VI Peel, which combines multiple powerful ingredients to deliver exceptional results. The VI Peel contains:
TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid): For deep penetration and collagen stimulation
Retinoic Acid: To combat wrinkles and fine lines
Salicylic Acid: For exfoliation and acne treatment
Phenol: To aid in skin penetration and provide antiseptic properties
Vitamin C: For its antioxidant and mild exfoliating effects
This unique blend allows for a more comfortable treatment experience while delivering dramatic, visible results in days.
How Do Chemical Peels Work?
The chemical peel procedure involves applying a precisely formulated solution to the skin, resulting in controlled damage to the outer layers. This process activates the body’s natural healing mechanisms, encouraging the development of new, healthier skin cells.
The mechanism of action for chemical peels involves several steps:
Application
A trained professional applies the chemical solution to the skin, which may contain ingredients such as alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), trichloroacetic acid (TCA), or phenol, depending on the type and strength of the peel.
Exfoliation
The solution breaks down the bonds between dead skin cells, encouraging them to shed more quickly.
Stimulation
As the outer layers of the skin are removed, the peel stimulates collagen and elastin production in the deeper layers.
Regeneration
New skin cells form, replacing the damaged ones and revealing fresher, younger-looking skin.
Improvement
With proper aftercare and a series of treatments, the skin’s appearance and texture continue to improve over time.

While chemical peels are generally safe, potential side effects may include mild discomfort, temporary redness, and dryness. Other complications, such as infection or changes in skin pigmentation, are rare but can occur. Following pre- and post-treatment instructions carefully can minimize these risks.
Chemical peels can effectively be incorporated with other treatments, such as microneedling, dermal fillers, or specific topical treatments, for enhanced results.
To prepare for a chemical peel, avoid prolonged exposure to the sun and tanning for at least 2 weeks before treatment. Discontinue the use of retinoids and other photosensitizing medications as advised by your provider. On the day of treatment, come with clean, makeup-free skin.
