Feeling Discouraged and Disappointed

I received my peel. Had little peeling. What did peel off I can still see my scars. They may be a tad bit lighter but nothing drastic like I hoped or like the pictures. I was hoping my face would be clear. Still have a couple days left.

Great spa, very caring and catering. Even with the vi peel not giving me the results I anticipated, I was given new products to try and it has improved the appearance of my skin significantly. I highly recommend their services!

Day 4

Still no peeling or changes, I woke up to my face being really tight, dry and ashy on my cheeks. I cleansed my face and applied the anti itch and spf cream. My whole face did burn but that’s it. No peeling or scab other then under my mouth. Only flaking that came off when I washed my face. My face do burn in certain areas. My face literally still looks the same. My checks have stopped flaking Sunday. It does not appear it will flake or peel again. It does not feel raw. It feels like my regular skin. Extremely disappointed.

One peel will not cure all. You must do the series! Your scars will probably not disappear. They will, however, be much softer and less noticeable.
This is an awesome peel, when you follow protocol.

Day 5

Face still looks the same. Last night I had to take 1000mg tyneol because my face was in a lot of pain. It hurts everytime I open my mouth and to eat. Today only thing that could be peeling is at the corner of my eyes. I have a brown spot on my chin and no peeling still on my checks. After I washed my face this morning my face got really tight and my whole face turned like this ashy color as it was going to crack. I applied the creams to them which burns everytime I apply it. This whole process been a nightmare and I deeply regret getting this peel. It literally did nothing but caused me pain.

You should have applied sunscreen. You will end up with hyperpigmentation if you don't. Surprised they didn't tell you that
