Chemical Peels

Out with dead, decaying skin cells & in with a healthy, radiant complexion.

Facial rejuvenation made easy.

Expert, Custom Chemical Peels in Chicago, IL

Your skin is constantly renewing itself, typically on a roughly 28-day cycle. However, this natural exfoliation process slows down as time goes on, causing a buildup of dull, dead skin cells that can mask your natural radiance, contribute to acne breakouts, and even make scars more noticeable. Even without specific skin concerns, this lingering layer prevents you from achieving the vibrant complexion you desire. Your skin’s inherent renewal process deserves a revitalizing boost.

At Skin MD in Chicago, IL, we provide carefully curated peels by VI Peel that gently sweep away oils, toxins, and bacteria while effectively exfoliating and hydrating healthy skin. These treatments offer benefits extending beyond basic correction. Experience tighter skin, the diminished appearance of both new and old scars, and a reduction in age spots and discoloration.

What is a Chemical Peel & What Can It Treat?

Healthy skin grows, dies, and sheds on a monthly basis. The process happens so slowly that we don’t even notice it. To promote this cycle, chemical peels encourage exfoliation and cleansing. They can even stimulate collagen production for tighter skin and faster healing.

Chemical peels rely on customizable formulas of skin-safe acids—usually glycolic, salicylic, and retinoic acids. These substances break the bonds that hold dead skin together. Dead, toxic cells fall or “peel” away while the remaining skin is nourished for near-comprehensive benefits.

Chemical Peels Can Treat:

  • Acne
  • Acne scars
  • Age spots
  • Aging skin
  • Crow’s feet
  • Scars
  • Sun-damaged skin
  • Sagging skin
  • Wrinkles
  • Fine lines
  • Discoloration
  • More

Explore Our VI Peel Options:

  • VI Peel Original: Gentle but effective, this is the go-to peel for first-time clients or anyone with sensitive skin. It’s a multitasker—helping to refine texture, refresh dull skin, and soften the first signs of aging, all while keeping irritation to a minimum.
  • VI Peel Advanced: Need something a little stronger? This formula is 30% more potent than the Original and is ideal for more mature skin. It helps boost collagen, smooth out deeper lines, and restore firmness and elasticity where it matters most.
  • VI Peel Precision Plus: Struggling with sun damage or stubborn discoloration? This powerhouse blend is specially formulated to target melasma, UV-induced dark spots, and uneven skin tone—revealing a clearer, more luminous complexion.
  • VI Peel Purify: Breakouts don’t stand a chance. This peel is made for acne-prone skin and works deep below the surface to reduce oil, shrink pores, calm inflammation, and fade post-acne marks. It’s a smart solution for chronic breakouts and congested skin.
  • VI Peel Purify with Precision Plus: The ultimate acne-fighting formula. If you’re dealing with acne scars, hormonal breakouts, or hyperpigmentation from past flare-ups, this advanced blend tackles all of it. It controls oil, brightens skin tone, and supports faster healing all in one treatment.
  • VI Peel Body: Healthy skin isn’t just for your face. VI Peel Body brings the same skin-renewing benefits to areas like your chest, back, arms, and legs. It helps smooth rough texture, fade stretch marks, clear body acne, and even out discoloration—perfect for those hard-to-treat spots.

Chemical Peels FAQs

Chemical peel results are directly tied to patient expectations and desires. On average, clients will enjoy tighter, brighter, healthier skin for one to two months. Like other facials, chemical peels are most effective when they become a part of your monthly skincare routine. Three treatments at least are recommended for the best results. By breaking the bonds that keep dead, decaying skin cells together, chemical peels allow you to easily shed old skin and make room for the next generation.

No skincare routine is complete without a custom facial. Find a chemical peel near Chicago, IL, that works for your concerns by calling Skin MD at 708-636-3767.

The “best” VI Peel truly depends on your unique skin concerns and goals. For those new to chemical peels or with sensitive skin, the VI Peel Original is often a fantastic starting point, gently addressing multiple concerns. If you’re looking to combat more significant signs of aging like deeper wrinkles and loss of firmness, the VI Peel Advanced might be the ideal choice due to its stronger formulation. 

For those primarily struggling with discoloration and hyperpigmentation, the VI Peel Precision Plus is specifically designed to effectively target these issues. If acne and breakouts are your main concern, the VI Peel Purify or Purify with Precision Plus are excellent options to help clear your complexion and address any resulting scarring. 

During your consultation, our aesthetician will carefully assess your skin and recommend the VI Peel that will deliver the best results for you.
