It sounds like you are having normal peeling. However the post peel protectant commonly stings during the peeling process.

Thank you for your question. Yes it is possible that the VI peel will fade microbladed brows. Your provider can apply aquaphor over the area beforehand to prevent the peel from affecting this.
Thank you for your question. Dry skin, peeling and skin darkening are all common side effects of a Vi Peel. This can usually last about a week. The skin darkening may last a little longer depending on the severity of your hyperpigmentation. Just be patient and keep your skin hydrated. Best of...
