It is important to have the Vi Peel on the face for 6-8 hours to get the best results. Our office suggests no exercise, no cleansing the skin, and staying clear of overheating in that time frame. If you were to sweat the treatment could cause irritation. It could get into the eye area, cause stinging to the skin, and not let the peel distribute evenly across the skin's surface. As the skin starts to visibly peel staying clear of sweating profusely is important too. This could cause acceleration of the peeling process which could result in prolonged redness and skin sensativity.
Starting the day after the Vi Peel is applied patients can start to get back into a light exercise program. Just make sure you are aware of how your skin is perspiring and reacting to your activity level.
