How does a Chemical Peel work?
Review your skin and goals
Your provider reviews your skin concerns, goals, and relevant health history, then helps confirm the right peel for your skin type and the results you want to target.
Get your chemical peel
Your provider selects the appropriate VI Peel formula and applies it in layers. The treatment itself takes about 15 to 20 minutes and is designed to be comfortable.
Care for your skin afterward
You’ll leave with an aftercare kit and clear instructions for recovery. Flaking may start around day 2, with most peeling easing by about day 6 or 7.

Frequently asked questions about Chemical Peel
Who is not a good fit for this appointment?
To ensure your safety, we don’t offer chemical peels to patients who:
- Have an allergy to phenol or aspirin

Who delivers this care?
Tia uses specialty trained licensed advanced practice clinicians (NPs & PAs) to deliver this care.
How long do results last?
The duration of your results depends on many factors, which you and your provider will discuss. For most skin concerns, the most common treatment cadence is 3 treatments, spaced 1 month apart. After this initial treatment window, most patients come back for treatment once every 3-6 months.
Which areas of the skin can be treated with a Chemical Peel?
The VI Chemical Peel and VI Chemical Peel Comprehensive are facial peels used to treat the face and neck. The VI Chemical Peel for Body is suitable for most body parts and safe for all skin tones. Commonly treated areas include the chest, back, arms, legs, and buttocks.
I’m not exactly sure what I need. How will my Care Plan be formulated?
How you address your skin care goals is a deeply personal choice. Your Tia provider is here to thoroughly understand your objectives and preferences, and take your whole health into account when considering results. At the start of every visit, you and your provider will align on your goals and your treatment plan, with you always in the driver’s seat.
What depth of chemical peel does Tia offer?
Chemical peels are classified based on how deeply they penetrate the skin layers and include superficial, medium-depth and deep. The deeper the penetration, the greater the overall exfoliation and cellular regeneration.
Tia exclusively offers medium-depth, medical-grade chemical peels for the face and medium-depth, professional-grade peels for the body. A medium-depth peel goes beyond surface issues without the significant downtime that can exist with deep peels.
Can I use insurance for chemical peels?
This is a cosmetic service and therefore not covered by insurance. For more details on cost, see our Service List.
Is the chemical peel painful?
Tia has selected a chemical peel line that most patients report as comfortable. Your provider will work with you to ensure you’re comfortable throughout the procedure.
Do I have to be a Tia member to receive a chemical peel?
Yes, this service is available to members only at this time.
Is there an ideal age for chemical peels?
Tia uses chemical peels that support all ages and life stages, and the peel formula will be selected based on your skin type and concerns.
Is there an ideal time for chemical peels?
We recommend scheduling this treatment at least 2 weeks before any important life events, so your skin can fully recover and your results can become noticeable.
Can I use VI Chemical Peels in combination with other skin care treatments?
Yes, VI Chemical Peels can be used as a “booster” treatment with other aesthetic procedures to enhance results. Wrinkle Care (Botox or Xeomin) and a VI Chemical Peel can be completed in the same day. Microneedling and VI Chemical Peels should be spaced at least 4 weeks apart.
