Is obagi peel stronger the vi peel?

Question

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Great question. In our office, we perform the Obagi peel and other peels to help exfoliate and resurface the skin. Our range of chemical peels extends from melasma peels like the Melapeel that have minimal downtime to a Blue Peel which requires one week of downtime. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

Tom J. Pousti, MD · Answer

Thanks for the question. They are both medium depth peels. The VI peel is almost painless, and requires no skin pre conditioning that is required by Obagi Blue Peel and other TCA peels when used on skin types 4 to 6. In addition, the VI Peel has very few of the complications and hazards that usually come with those peels.Hope this helps.

Michael H. Gold, MD · Answer

The VI Peel and the
Obagi Peels are both classified as medium depth peels and as such, should be
performed by people skilled in the use of peeling agents, under the auspices of
a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon.  Great clinical results can be achieved with
both peels – and physicians will like one over the other, although clinically
they both should give fairly similar results.
