Why More Patients Are Choosing VI Peels For Melasma And Aging Skin

Close up of a patient's face with melasma spots on their cheeks, in need of VI Peel. Melasma and visible signs of aging are common skin concerns that can be difficult to manage with over-the-counter products alone. Dark patches, uneven tone, and fine lines often require professional care to achieve noticeable improvement. 

At Ocala Plastic Surgery & Dermatology, patients benefit from the expertise of board-certified specialists, including Dr. Jessin Blossom, a Board-Certified Dermatologist and Mohs Surgeon with advanced training from the University of Arizona and a background that includes service as a physician in the US Navy. 

Treatments such as the VI Peel, a medical-grade chemical peel, are designed to target pigmentation concerns while supporting healthier, more youthful-looking skin through carefully guided, evidence-based care.

What Causes Melasma And Aging Skin?

Melasma commonly develops due to a mix of sun exposure, hormonal fluctuations, and genetic factors. It often appears as brown or gray patches on the cheeks, forehead, or upper lip. Aging skin develops gradually as collagen production slows, leading to dullness, texture changes, and fine lines. These concerns can overlap, making treatment more complex and reinforcing the need for professional solutions.

How A VI Peel Works As A Chemical Peel

A VI Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel designed to reach beyond the skin’s surface to address damage at multiple levels. The treatment gently exfoliates compromised layers while accelerating cellular turnover, allowing healthier skin to emerge. By targeting pigment irregularities, the treatment helps improve skin tone while encouraging collagen activity that enhances texture and firmness.

Unlike harsher peels that may require extended recovery, VI Peels are formulated to be effective yet controlled, making them suitable for many skin types and tones, including those prone to pigmentation issues.

The Benefits Of VI Peels For Melasma And Aging Skin

Patients often choose VI Peels because they address multiple skin concerns at once. Common benefits include:

  • Reduction in the appearance of melasma and dark spots
  • Brighter and more even skin tone
  • Smoother texture and refined pores
  • Improvement in fine lines related to aging

These combined benefits make VI Peels a popular option for individuals seeking noticeable results without extended downtime.

What To Expect During And After Treatment

Treatment typically takes less than an hour and is performed in office. Mild tingling or warmth may be felt during application. Peeling usually begins within a few days and can last up to a week, depending on skin response. Following aftercare instructions is essential to protect results and support healing, especially when it comes to avoiding sun exposure and maintaining proper hydration.
