I did the Vi peel to get rid of: brown/sun spots, large t-zone pores & very fine lines.
DAY 1: I awakened in the night due to 'pinches' on my neck & 'pangs' on my face. It hurt.
DAY 2: I had blurred vision. Possibly from the 'post-peel protectant', which is 1% hydrocortisone)?
DAY 3: I am peeling around the mouth & chin. My neck is itching & stinging like crazy!!! Some skin areas are darkening ( patches near both outer eye areas and brown spots near hairline ).
DAY 4- Forehead & dark patches are peeling. I wash my face with plain water ( anything else stings). Face is very red. Anything I apply to stop itching stings. Spa told me to use Aquaphor. Has the thickness of vaseline. Didn't sting but shortly after applying I started itching! Washed it off. Going to try some aloe vera gel. My fine lines look worse. And I look red, sunburned.
DAY 4: Early evening - T-zone pores look smaller. Its too early to tell for the brown spots. Fine lines look same. One really needs to time a peel so day 3 is on a Saturday. So far I would NOT do this again.
DAY 5: stay tuned...

It is now 2 1/2 months since I had the Vi Peel, and my skin is still messed up from it. I am getting a Jessner's this week to hopefully remedy the effects.

the way I feel right now I think I'm about to go through the same exact thing my skin has been burning and itching since the very first day and now I have all these red welts all over my face this was the worst thing I could ever done to myself !

Hang in there, Vonny. I was super worried about my skin, but the most major issues resolves within a couple weeks.

Well, I am on my phone app or I would show you guys the horrible after effect to the after care products did to my face! :( I am waiting on someone to contact me from Vi peel so they can inform me what ingredients are all in the post peel protectant!

I took a Benadryl to help with the itchiness. It saved my life, even though it made me lifeless/drowsy as all heck.

Thank you.....after going to the ER and getting on painkillers and prednisone the blisters have decided and scabbed over it looks like my face is starting to come back to normal but I'm still very upset about this pill and the post protectant was not good for me to use being that I had ammonia and alcohol in it completely ruined me for a extra a week! Thanks a bunch for sending positive energy my way! :)

Auto correct ruined my post of above hope you know what I was trying to convey!
It does take a while for full healing and results to show. Keep taking the progression pictures so that you can see the changes.
Keep us up to date on everything.
