Chemical Peel Treatments in Albuquerque
One Peel for a Brighter, Smoother Complexion
A VI Peel® resurfaces your skin in one treatment, smoothing texture and fading spots for a brighter complexion.
What Is a VI Peel?
A Medium-Depth Peel With Real Results
A VI Peel treatment combines a blend of acids and vitamins to exfoliate your skin and stimulate new collagen production. It reaches deeper than a typical spa facial, targeting fine lines, sun damage, and acne-related concerns in a single session.
At Sandia Skin + Face, we offer the VI Peel as a straightforward option for patients who want visible improvement in tone and texture without lasers or injectables. If you're wondering whether a VI Peel is right for your skin, we'd love to talk it through during a consultation.

What a VI Peel Visit Looks Like
What to Expect From Your VI Peel
Before Your Appointment
Avoid sun exposure, retinoids, and exfoliating products for several days beforehand, per your provider's instructions. Come in with clean, product-free skin.
During Your Visit
Your provider applies the peel solution in layers over your face, chest, hands, or another treatment area. Most patients feel a warm or tingling sensation, and the application itself takes well under an hour.
After Treatment
Your skin will feel tight for the first day, followed by visible peeling over the following days. We'll walk you through a simple aftercare routine to protect your results and support healing.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a VI Peel?
A VI Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel that uses a blend of acids and vitamins to exfoliate the skin and stimulate new collagen production. It's designed to improve fine lines, sun damage, and acne-related concerns in a single treatment.
How does a VI Peel work?
A VI Peel works by breaking down the outer layers of skin cells, which triggers your body's natural healing response and encourages new collagen and elastin production. As your skin heals and sheds over the following days, fresher, more even-toned skin is revealed underneath.
What are the benefits of a VI Peel?
VI Peel benefits include smoother texture, reduced fine lines, fading of sun spots and discoloration, and improvement in acne and acne scarring. Because the treatment works at a deeper level than typical facials, many patients see more noticeable results from a single session.
Is a VI Peel good for treating acne?
Yes, a VI Peel can help with active acne and acne scarring, in part due to its salicylic acid content, which helps clear pores and reduce inflammation. We'll assess your specific skin concerns during your consultation to confirm it's the right fit.
What is the difference between a VI Peel and other chemical peels?
A VI Peel is a specific medium-depth peel formula, while other chemical peels can vary widely in strength and ingredients, from light surface peels to much deeper treatments. We'll help you understand how a VI Peel compares to other options based on your skin and goals.
