About Vivier® facial Peels
Facial Peels have been used for decades to help rejuvenate and refine the look of our skin. The effects of sun exposure, acne and aging can result in blemishes, uneven tone and pigmentation, dull appearance, scarring or finely wrinkled areas.
Vivier medical grade chemical peels work by removing the outermost layer of skin, causing immediate benefits and diminishing imperfections. Peels effectively combat dullness, blotchiness, age and sun spots, hyperpigmentation, reduce pore size and improve the look of fine lines and wrinkles.
At Emerald Medispa we offer two types of medical grade chemical peels from Vivier® to help you look and feel your best.
The minimally invasive yet very effective Vivier Peel, sometimes known as the “glow” peel.
The more intense Jessner Peel, which is especially effective for those concerned about hyperpigmentation, sun damage, acne and scarring.

FAQS
-
Lactic Acid: helps improve moisture levels in overly sensitive or dry skin.
Salicylic Acid: helps ease acne, reduce oiliness, improve texture and ease post-inflammatory hyper pigmentation (PIH). Also encourages the removal of debris that can clog your pores and dull the upper layer of your skin.
Resorcinol: helps ease inflammation, redness and acne. Resorcinol is an antibacterial that destroys the harmful bacteria that causes acne. It also softens tough skin, stimulates collagen production and leaves your skin looking cleaner and fresher.
AHA (alpha hydroxy acid): This compound penetrates the skin deeply, delivering therapeutic ingredients to layers of your skin that are normally untouched by more topical peels. This boosts the rate at which your cells regenerate, giving you smoother and softer skin.
BHA (beta hydroxy acid): Beta Hydroxy acid refers to a group of organic acids, rather than a single substance like AHA. The most common sources of BHAs are fruits and willow tree bark, but it can also be found naturally in your body. The primary purpose of BHA is to gently exfoliate your skin, removing the dirt and debris that clogs your upper layers and makes your complexion dull. This also helps clear out your pores, improving acne, blackheads and whiteheads. It also acts as an anti-inflammatory, easing redness.
Peptides: When it comes to anti-aging, peptides is one of the most common ingredients in skincare products. Vivier® has their own patented peptides that function deep in your skin, communicating to your cells to repair and rejuvenate. Your skin is strengthened with a single treatment!
Panthenol: a form of vitamin B5 that helps with a variety of things, specifically moisturizing and healing your skin.

Avoid anything that will exfoliate or dry out your skin (such as Retinol or AHA products).
Immediately following your Vivier peel, your skin is likely to feel shiny or sticky. It is important to not touch your face during this time. Similarly, you should avoid water, makeup or exercise during this period (approximately 8 hours), so that the product can neutralize.

You will notice immediate benefits after your first peel. For optimal results, most patients benefit from 3-6 treatments

While non-invasive, the Vivier Peel is a medical-grade procedure, so you may experience a slight stinging sensation. 48 hrs after treatment, you may also notice peeling or dry skin. Residual redness may last up to 3-5 days, but the end result is a more even skin tone, and a face that is clearer, radiant and overall more youthful.
The less aggressive Vivier Peel often has your skin glowing and ready for events within 48 hours. The Jessner peel takes a little longer for finished results.
