Chemical Peel Treatment Experience
Before a Chemical Peel
- Avoid using "anti-aging" products like retinol 1-2 days prior to your appointment.
- Wash your face and remove makeup before your appointment.
- Clear a flat surface and provide a comfortable area to lay down for your treatment. You might clean for the cleaner, but no need to tidy up for us!
During a Chemical Peel
- Your provider will review your treatment plan upon arrival, provide an assessment, and explain how your treatment will work.
- A solution will be applied to your skin by your provider. The treatment should take anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes.
After a Chemical Peel
(Post-care varies depending on peel type)
- Stay out of the sun and use sunscreen daily of 30 SPF or stronger (as you should already be doing to protect your skin!)
- Avoid facial treatments, including waxing, for at least 14 days post-peel.
- Depending on Peel type, results will be seen anywhere from immediately to 7 days post-appointment, revealing brighter, renewed, and glowing skin!
- Your provider will follow up after your appointment to ensure satisfaction and plan further steps.

Chemical Peels FAQ
Both VI Peel and BioRePeel are chemical peels that aim to improve skin quality, but they differ in a few key ways:
- VI Peel is designed to lift pigment, smooth texture, remove sun damage, alleviate acne and scarring, and fight fine lines and wrinkles. It typically causes peeling on days 3 to 5 after application, with most exfoliation subsiding by day 6. Results can be seen within 7 days, and it can be applied every 3 months at most.
- BioRePeel is a non-invasive solution that uses natural acids, enzymes, and vitamins to gently exfoliate and stimulate cellular regeneration, with minimal to no downtime. It is particularly effective before special events for a quick "glow" boost. It combats fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation issues, evens skin texture, and addresses acne and scarring. Each session lasts only 15 minutes and generally 4-6 sessions are recommended
Yes, both VI Peel and BioRePeel are considered safe for use on all skin types. However, with VI Peel, caution should be used in clients with darker skin tones as they are more likely to develop Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation. BioRePeel is a non-invasive solution that works for all skin types, tones, and ages, including acne-prone and pigmented skin. It's always best to consult with your provider before starting any new skin treatments.
- For BioRePeel, you may experience and instant glow after each session, and results continue to improve over the subsequent weeks.
- For VI Peel, you can typically see results within 7-10 days with peak peeling occurring on days 3 to 5.
- For BioRePeel, treatments may be clustered as frequently as 7 to 10 days apart for maximum effect (series of 4-6 sessions), or choose a maintanence regimen every 3-4 months to stay looking your best. As always, consult with your Pinch Provider to determine the best schedule for you.
- For VI Peel, it is safe to get treated every 8-12 weeks.
