A mild warming sensation or slight swelling is normal. Peeling typically begins 24–48 hours after your treatment and is usually complete within five days.

Results

Results are commonly visible after one treatment and progressively improve with additional sessions. A series of three to six peels is recommended for skin care goals related to texture and tone.

What to Expect During Your Visit

Your provider at Aurora Medical Spa in Leander will start with a thorough facial cleanse to remove surface oils and prep your skin. A prepping solution is applied first, followed by the Vitalize peeling agent. You'll be instructed to avoid getting your face wet for six to eight hours to allow the solution to complete its work. During the peeling phase over the next several days, it's important to keep your skin clean, moisturized, and protected from the sun. Your provider will walk you through everything you need to know for a smooth recovery.

How does the Vitalize Peel differ from the Illuminize Peel?

The Vitalize Peel goes a step deeper than the Illuminize, making it better suited for moderate skin concerns like sun damage and fine lines. It involves a peeling phase (typically five days), while the Illuminize does not.

What products should I use after my Vitalize Peel?

We recommend SkinMedica's Sensitive Skin Cleanser during the four to five days following your peel. Broad-spectrum sunscreen is essential during any outdoor activities. Within about a week, you can typically resume your normal skincare routine.

How do I maintain results between treatments?

The Vitalize Peel works well as part of a broader skin management plan. Your Aurora Medical Spa in Leander provider can recommend SkinMedica home-use products to extend and enhance your in-office results.
