While at-home skincare products can address some of the same concerns as a VI Peel, they won’t provide the same level of resurfacing or results. Here’s a breakdown:
- At-Home Options:
- Chemical Exfoliants: Products with AHAs (glycolic, lactic acid) or BHAs (salicylic acid) offer some exfoliation.
- Retinol: Promotes skin renewal and can address fine lines, uneven texture, and some hyperpigmentation.
- Vitamin C: A powerful antioxidant that helps brighten skin and supports collagen production.
- Limitations:
- Lower Ingredient Strength: At-home products contain lower concentrations of acids for safety reasons.
- Depth of Penetration: They mainly target surface-level skin, offering less dramatic results than a professional VI Peel.
- Lack of Customization: A VI Peel is tailored to your needs – at-home products are less individualized.
- At-home products are helpful for:
- Maintenance between VI Peels
- Addressing milder skin concerns
- Individuals who aren’t candidates for VI Peels
AIVI Aesthetics Agoura Hills can help you develop an effective at-home skincare routine to complement your VI Peel treatments.
