I turn thirty(something) in a few days, & wanted to get a peel that would diminish my hyper pigmentation, scars & give me a youthful glow. The Vi peel came highly recommended by Caroline at Medalase. I've been a client at Medalase long enough now to know, if someone there recommends something to me, I go for it! I have never been disappointed & this time was no exception!

Day one, the procedure was completely painless! I left Medalase & ran errands all day. I looked like I went out with a tinted moisturizer on my face. One that was a tad on the Orange side haha.
Day two my face was tight, but otherwise comfortable. I have been following my post care kit, although I haven't needed the hydrocortisone cream yet. Being religious about my SPF.
Day three. My face is a little itchy & I'm starting to peel, the skin underneath is bright & glowy! Super excited!
Day four. My face is still itching a little and is peeling very nicely! I love how great it's peeling yet this whole procedure was totally painless! Awesome! Can't wait to see the final outcome! Will update more as the week goes on!

Well, it has finally happened! The godawful itching everyone has been talking about in their review of this peel! I found myself awake at 3am because if it. It's surprising this happened to me after the biggest portion of the peeling had subsided, never the less, I found myself quickly falling in love with my post procedure balm. Use it people! You'll thank me later for it! On an awesome note, my pores are soooooo tiney & my skin is super glowy already, & I'm happier every day that I got this peel!

Feeding of the scars? Like getting smaller?

@kpfotlife Sorry it took me a while to reply back to you. I was so confused by your comment & I then realized you commented on the wrong image update. I think you were talking about the up-dated image where I posted my scars appear to be "fading", but Siri heard it as "feeding" evidently. I don't know why Siri is always putting words in my mouth. Unfortunately,I hit "post" before I proof read my update & I haven't figured out how to edit it yet, although I did make it a point to post what I meant to say in a comment directly below the image. Sorry for any confusion, there is no feeding of the scars taking place, thank goodness haha!
