Can I sleep on my face after a Vi Peel?

Question

I toss and turn a lot when I sleep and I am scared that I will turn over and sleep on the side of my face into the pillow after I get the VI Peel. Will this cause imflammation and possible burning?

Ronald D. Blatt, MD, FACOG · Answer

thank you for your question. even if the peel is applied later in the day, the peel should still be washed off after 4 to 6 hours.

You typically do not sleep with the VI peel still on your face. It is usually taken off about 4 hours application, though can be taken off after a bit longer. After gently taking it off, you can use a moisturizer to the face to help with peeling and should be fine to sleep normally.
