Hello! If you are looking for a peel that will cause more peeling and downtime, VI peel will do that for you. PCA Sensi Peel is great but you will just experience more "flaking" not peeling. Now, my aesthetician always tells our patients I can never expect what is going to happen to your skin after, everybody's skin reacts and heals differently, but she does give them a roundabout of what they can expect. Depending on how many layers of the peel is applied can determine your post-healing and your skin prep can determine your post-healing. Best of Luck!Dr. Julia Spears MD
Thank you for your question! Vi Peel is stronger. PCA Sensi Peel is designed for sensitive skin and it is a gentle peel with only 6% TCA solution. It may take up to a week to ten days for both peels.

Hello! No that would not cause enlarged pores. Enlarged pores are normal as it is part of the skin, you can minimize pores but they will never disappear. Chemical peels will actually help with enlarged pores! Best of Luck! Dr. Julia Spears MD
Hello! I would wait 2-3 days before you exercise after a chemical peel. When you exercise it brings blood circulation to the skin which can cause irritation or inflammation in the skin. If you do any type of exercise, make it light and I wouldn't recommend sweating too much either. Best of...
