hello! today i had a consultation for a chemical peel. this is something i have thought about for so long so i want to make the right choice. my biggest concern is my acne scarring, some pigmentation issues from to much tanning, and just want to achieve an overall smoothness of my skin. during the consult i received information about the new(ish) VI Peel and then a Jessner peel. The consultant recommended the VI Peel to me and said for my skin she would do this one. I'm planning on having one of them (VI or Jessner) on Friday. I am off until Tuesday. I know I will peel and I'm fine with that. I just want to know if others have had either one of these, results they saw, and any advice would be MUCH appreciated. The one thing I think about the Jessner peel is that it's not as extreme so maybe i could go out in public and little sooner...i actually have no idea which to do...

thank you!

The VI peel (also known as the lunchtime peel) is more gentle than the Jessner, however, the Jessner is more effective.

i would say, vi peel is the best. i have had jessner twice but my inflammation got worse.
vi peel is a magic. i would suggest you to go for vi peel, because you can use it on active acne but with jessner you have only 50-50 chance of doing good. goog luck to you!
