Why Cant You Sweat After the Vi Peel?

It's important that you refrain from activities for 72-96 hours that can induce excessive perspiration which can lead PIH (Post-Inflammatory Hyper-pigmentation) or blistering. 

If you perspire after your VI Peel it creates irritation on the surface of the just treated skin.  The salty components of your sweat causes a burning on the surface of the skin, causing undo discomfort and chances for complications.  After the initial 2 or 3 days following your VI Peel regular exercise that causes perspiration should be OK.

You don't want to exercise right after having a VI Peel because it can reactivate the peel and cause burning and itching to the skin.  It can also cause water blisters that form on the skin from sweating.  Patience will bring you a beautiful result so hang in there!
