Healthy, glowing skin starts with choosing the right treatment for your skin concerns and goals. At PEAKTOX in Colorado Springs, we offer advanced VI Peel treatments designed to improve acne, hyperpigmentation, melasma, fine lines, uneven texture, and signs of aging with minimal downtime.
Two of the most popular options are the classic VI Peel and the VI Peel Precision Plus & Peptides. While both are medical-grade chemical peels designed to rejuvenate the skin, each treatment is formulated to target different concerns and levels of correction.

What Is a VI Peel?
The VI Peel is a medium-depth chemical peel designed to exfoliate damaged skin cells while stimulating collagen production and cellular turnover. This treatment helps reveal brighter, smoother, healthier-looking skin after just one treatment.
VI Peels are formulated to be safe for all skin types and can improve:
Acne and acne scarring
Fine lines and wrinkles
Uneven skin tone
Sun damage
Hyperpigmentation
Enlarged pores
Rough skin texture
Unlike harsh traditional chemical peels, VI Peels are known for producing noticeable results with manageable downtime.
What Is the VI Peel Precision Plus & Peptides?
The VI Peel Precision Plus & Peptides is an advanced corrective peel specifically formulated for pigmentation and aging concerns. It combines the power of the original VI Peel with targeted brightening ingredients and anti-aging peptides to improve stubborn discoloration while supporting collagen and elastin production.
This advanced peel is ideal for treating:
Melasma
Hyperpigmentation
Dark spots
Sun damage
Post-inflammatory pigmentation
Fine lines and wrinkles
Loss of skin firmness
Uneven skin texture
The addition of peptides helps support skin rejuvenation while improving overall skin tone, elasticity, and radiance.

What to Expect After a VI Peel

Brighter
Smoother
More even-toned
More radiant
Clearer and healthier-looking
For pigmentation concerns such as melasma and sun damage, a series of treatments is often recommended for optimal results.
VI Derm Pigment Correction System
For patients treating melasma, hyperpigmentation, and dark spots, we may recommend pairing your treatment with the VI Derm Pigment Correction System.
The VI Derm Pigment Correction System is a 3-month medical-grade skincare set that includes a retinol age-defying moisturizer, vitamin C serum, dark spot lifting serum, and Ret-Correct night exfoliator to help treat melasma, hyperpigmentation, dark spots, sun damage, and uneven skin tone while enhancing and maintaining VI Peel results.
