Our master aesthetician Alex was trained by Dr. V in chemical peels. During your initial consultation, Alex will carefully examine your skin and determine the best type of chemical peel necessary to combat your unique skin needs. At The Virginia Institute, some of the chemical peels offered are Jessner, Lactic/TCA, or salicylic acid. Because chemical peels vary in their components and strength, it is important that you choose a professional who understands how your skin will react as well as how to best treat your specific conditions.
