Vi Peel is a medical grade chemical peel sold by Kalil Medical Products. This chemical compound is a treatment for various skin conditions including acne, sunspots and more. The process is called a "peel" because it removes damaged outer layers of skin to reveal newer layers beneath the surface.
What Is in the Vi Peel?
The specific ingredients of a Vi Peel are a matter of trade confidentiality, but according to the company, each ingredient of the chemical peel has been deemed safe by the medical community at large. Medical professionals at cosmetic number telogen offices and other facilities, like spas, administer the Vi Peel treatment. The noninvasive procedure is generally seen as safer than some other options, and unlike some other chemical peel procedures, it does not require pretreatment.
Is Vi Peel Approved by the FDA?
Resources online indicate that as of August 2009, Vi Peel was not specifically approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. However, it has been cleared for use in many situations by medical experts, and many dermatologists consider it a relatively safe skin treatment. The Vi Peel process does not often take a lot of time to administer, and apart from a mild stinging sensation, pain or discomfort is not commonly reported with the procedure.
