About the Treatment
What is Chemical Peel?
Chemical peels are one of the most versatile and effective treatments for skin renewal, using carefully formulated acid solutions to remove damaged outer layers and reveal fresh, healthy skin beneath. At VÍORA Signature, we offer a comprehensive range of medical-grade peels customized to your skin type, concerns, and goals.
From gentle superficial peels for maintenance and glow to medium-depth peels for significant correction, our expert dermatologists select the optimal formulation including glycolic acid, salicylic acid, lactic acid, TCA, and combination peels. Each treatment is tailored to address your specific concerns—whether acne, pigmentation, fine lines, or overall texture improvement.
Our systematic approach includes pre-treatment skin preparation and post-treatment care to ensure safe, effective results.

What to Expect
Before Treatment
Your consultation confirms suitability and covers preparation. General guidance includes sharing your medical history and current skincare, and avoiding strong actives or excess sun exposure where advised.

Your session typically takes 20-45 minutes depending on peel type. Comfort is monitored throughout, and each step is explained as it happens.
After Treatment
Light peels: No downtime. Medium peels: 5-7 days of peeling. Sun protection critical.
Results
A Realistic Results Timeline
Superficial peels show immediate brightness. Medium peels reveal new skin after peeling phase (5-7 days).
Immediately After
The treated area may show an early response — this varies by treatment and is discussed with you beforehand.
Early Response
Over the first days to weeks, initial changes settle as the skin or tissue begins its natural response.
Progressive Results
Collagen-based and regenerative treatments continue improving gradually across the following weeks.
Review Point
Progress is assessed at a planned review, where your plan is confirmed or refined.
Timelines are indicative and treatment-dependent. Individual responses vary, and exact outcomes are never promised.
Planning Your Course
Sessions & Maintenance
Some treatments show meaningful change after a single session, while others are planned as a structured course. Your recommended session count depends on the concern being addressed, its severity and duration, your skin or hair type, and how your body responds to the first sessions.
Where maintenance is relevant, it is discussed openly at your review — never assumed. The aim is always the fewest sessions that responsibly serve your goal.
What Influences Session Count
- The concern and how established it is
- Your individual skin, hair or tissue response
- Treatment intensity chosen for your comfort
- How results are maintained between sessions
This is why a consultation is necessary — your expected plan is mapped before you commit to anything.
