There are many ways to restore the texture and vitality of your skin, but choosing the right one depends on several factors, like the extent of the skin damage, the type of skin, and any existing skin conditions you may have.
We offer several procedures specifically to correct uneven skin tone caused by acne scars, birthmarks, rosacea, and other skin conditions. Two of our most popular procedures are the chemical peel, specifically the VI peel, and our photo facial therapy, or Intense Pulse Light(IPL) therapy.
Let’s look at each one, its uses, and its benefits to your skin.
VI Peel by the Vitality Institute
Like other chemical peels, a VI Peel works by exfoliating your skin and stimulating the production of new proteins. It’s a medium-depth chemical peel that penetrates your top layer of skin, called the epidermis, reaching into the dermis underneath.
The procedure is commonly used to treat signs of aging, improve skin texture, and correct pigmentary issues. Peels are gentle enough that we can safely use them on your face, chest, eyelids, hands, and back.
After just one treatment with a VI Peel, you will see an improvement in the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines and an overall brighter complexion. With continued use, you will maintain younger-looking skin for years to come.
Intense Pulsed Light or IPL Therapy
Intense Pulsed Light or IPL therapy is a non-invasive photo rejuvenation treatment that can undo some of the visible damage caused by sun exposure. It uses light energy to target accurately and remove pigmented or damaged skin cells and hair follicles. IPL is perfect for anyone who wants to improve their complexion with no disruption of the skin’s surface. It can improve a range of skin issues, like acne scars or birthmarks.
Unlike laser therapy, IPL delivers multiple wavelengths, so it can treat a larger area of skin in a shorter time— perfect for busy people who want to achieve beautiful, healthy skin without disrupting their schedules.
Is the VI Peel or IPL Therapy right for you?
Both the VI Peel and our Intense Pulsed Light therapy are popular facial rejuvenation procedures. They both work to improve skin tone and texture, but they achieve this in different ways.
Consult with your doctor today to find out which one is a better option for you.
