VI Peel vs. The Perfect Derma Peel: A Complete Guide to Choosing the Right Chemical Peel

If you’re looking to improve your skin’s texture, tone, and clarity, you’ve likely heard of two powerful chemical peels: the VI Peel and The Perfect Derma Peel. Both are medium-depth medical-grade peels that deliver transformative results—but how do they compare, and which one is right for you?

In this post, we break down everything you need to know about the VI Peel vs. The Perfect Derma Peel, including ingredients, benefits, recovery, and who they’re best for.

What Is a VI Peel?

The VI Peel is a medium-depth, painless chemical peel that targets acne, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and uneven skin texture. It’s safe for all skin tones, including deeper Fitzpatrick types, making it one of the most inclusive and effective peels on the market.

What Is The Perfect Derma Peel?

The Perfect Derma Peel is another top-performing medium-depth peel, praised for its unique addition of glutathione, a master antioxidant that brightens the skin and fights signs of aging. This peel is also suitable for all skin types and ethnicities and often used for deeper pigmentation issues and stubborn acne scars.

Key ingredients in The Perfect Derma Peel:

• TCA

• Retinoic acid

• Salicylic acid

FAQs: Choosing the Right Chemical Peel

Which peel has better results for hyperpigmentation?

Both are effective, but The Perfect Derma Peel may offer deeper correction due to the added glutathione and kojic acid.

The VI Peel Purify is specifically formulated for active acne and oily skin, while The Perfect Derma Peel works best for post-acne pigmentation and scarring.

Can these peels be combined with other treatments?

Yes—many clients pair them with microneedling, LED therapy, or customized facials. Always consult with your esthetician to build a treatment plan.
