    A chemical peel is a cosmetic treatment that uses a chemical solution to exfoliate the outer layers of skin, promoting cell turnover and revealing smoother, brighter skin underneath.
  • How does a chemical peel work?
    The chemical solution is applied to the skin, causing it to exfoliate and eventually peel off. This process removes dead and damaged skin cells, stimulates collagen production, and improves skin texture and tone.
  • How long does a chemical peel take?
    The duration of a chemical peel varies depending on the type and size of the treatment area. Generally, the procedure takes between 30 to 60 minutes.
  • Which Chemical Peel Should I Do?
    Vitality Institute (VI): VI Peel: for aging skin VI Peel with Precision: for more advanced aging skin VI Peel with a Precision Plus: for sunspots and pigmented skin VI Peel PURIFY: for acne prone skin VI Peel PURIFY with Precision Plus: for acne scars and skin damage
  • What should I expect during and after the treatment?
    During the treatment, you may experience a mild tingling or burning sensation. Afterward, your skin may be red and slightly swollen, and you might notice some peeling over the next few days. Results typically improve as the skin heals.
  • How many chemical peels will I need?
    The number of peels needed depends on your skin type, concerns, and desired results. Many clients achieve noticeable improvement with a series of 3 to 6 peels, spaced a few weeks apart.
  • Are there any side effects?
    Common side effects include redness, peeling, and mild swelling. Rarely, there may be more significant side effects like blistering or changes in pigmentation, but these are uncommon when the treatment is performed correctly.
  • How should I prepare for a chemical peel?
    Before your treatment, avoid sun exposure, discontinue the use of certain skincare products, and follow any pre-treatment instructions provided by your provider to ensure the best results.
  • What should I do after a chemical peel?
    After a peel, protect your skin by using sunscreen, avoid direct sun exposure, and follow post-treatment care instructions provided by your provider. It's also important to keep your skin hydrated and avoid picking at peeling skin.
  • Who is a good candidate for a chemical peel?
    Ideal candidates are individuals with concerns like uneven skin tone, fine lines, acne scars, or sun damage. A consultation with a professional will help determine if a chemical peel is suitable for your skin type and goals.
  • What is microneedling?
    Microneedling is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a device with fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. This process stimulates the body's natural wound healing response, promoting collagen and elastin production for smoother, firmer skin.
  • How does microneedling work?
    The microneedling device creates controlled micro-injuries in the skin, which triggers the body's repair mechanisms. As the skin heals, it produces new collagen and elastin, improving texture, reducing fine lines, and enhancing overall skin appearance.
  • What are the benefits of microneedling?
    Benefits include reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improved skin texture and tone, minimized acne scars, and enhanced absorption of skincare products. It also promotes a youthful and radiant complexion.
  • Is microneedling painful?
    Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. A topical numbing cream is applied to the skin before treatment to ensure a more comfortable experience.
  • How long does a microneedling session take?
    A typical microneedling session lasts about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the treatment area and the specific needs of the patient.
  • What should I expect after a microneedling treatment?
    After the treatment, you may experience redness and slight swelling, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects usually subside within a few days, and you can expect to see improved results as your skin heals.
  • How many microneedling sessions are needed for best results?
    The number of sessions required depends on your skin concerns and goals. Most patients benefit from a series of 3 to 6 treatments, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, to achieve optimal results.
  • Are there any side effects of microneedling?
    Side effects are generally minimal and can include temporary redness, swelling, and minor discomfort. Rarely, some individuals may experience minor bruising or dryness.
  • How should I prepare for a microneedling treatment?
    To prepare, avoid using harsh skincare products, retinoids, or exfoliants for a few days prior. It’s also important to avoid sun exposure and inform your provider of any medical conditions or medications.
  • What aftercare is required following microneedling?
    Post-treatment care includes keeping your skin hydrated, avoiding direct sun exposure, and using gentle, non-irritating skincare products. Your provider will give you specific aftercare instructions to follow for the best results.

  • What is sclerotherapy?
    Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure used to treat spider veins and small varicose veins. It involves injecting a solution directly into the veins, causing them to collapse and gradually fade from view.

    After sclerotherapy, you may be advised to wear compression stockings for a few days to help with healing. You should also avoid strenuous exercise, hot baths, and direct sun exposure for a short period.
  • Is there any downtime after sclerotherapy?
    Sclerotherapy requires minimal downtime. Most patients can return to their normal activities the same day, although it's recommended to avoid intense physical activity for a few days.
  • Who is a good candidate for sclerotherapy?
    Sclerotherapy is ideal for individuals with spider veins or small varicose veins who are in good health and do not have a history of blood clotting disorders. A consultation with a healthcare provider can determine if sclerotherapy is the right treatment for you.
