Planning Your Peel Around a Busy Week
A VI Peel takes about half an hour, and you leave looking only slightly flushed, so the visit itself is easy to fit into a downtown day. The part worth planning is the peel week that follows, when light flaking and then peeling come and go over five to seven days.
Most of our Gold Coast clients book on a Thursday or Friday. Flaking usually starts around day two and is most visible around days three to five, so a late-week peel puts much of it over the weekend and you are mostly through by midweek. If you have a presentation or event, tell us the date and we will count back from it with you.
City sun, lake glare and pigment
Downtown skin gets more sun than people expect: lakefront runs, patio lunches and glare off glass towers all add up. Over time that shows as sun spots and uneven tone across the cheeks and forehead. A short series of peels lifts that pigment, and daily SPF 50 keeps it from coming back.

What Gold Coast Clients Ask Us For
The requests we hear most at this clinic.
Late-week booking
A Thursday or Friday peel puts most flaking over the weekend.
Easy to reach
Close to River North, Streeterville and the Loop.
City sun spots
A peel series lifts pigment from lakefront and patio sun.
Peel plus Botox
A VI ToxBooster pairs a peel and Botox in one visit.
Peels and Microneedling, on Alternate Visits
For stubborn dark spots, many downtown clients alternate a VI Peel with microneedling every four to six weeks. Microneedling breaks up pigment deeper in the skin and builds collagen, and the next peel lifts the loosened pigment out.
The two are never done on the same day, so each visit stays quick and recovery stays short. Ask about our current peel and microneedling package when you book. Photo courtesy of VI Peel; not a PURE client.

Chemical Peels in Gold Coast: Your Questions
What day of the week should I book my peel?
If you work Monday to Friday, a Thursday or Friday peel usually works best. Most flaking happens around days three to five, so much of it falls on the weekend.
Can I go back to work right after a VI Peel?
Yes. You may look slightly flushed or tan for the rest of the day. Skip makeup for the first four hours, then you can wear it as directed in your aftercare kit.
Can I get Botox at the same visit as my peel?
Yes. A VI ToxBooster combines a VI Peel and Botox in one appointment. Your provider will confirm it suits your plan.
Is the Gold Coast clinic open on weekends?
Yes. Saturday 10 am to 6 pm and Sunday 11 am to 5 pm, plus weekday hours of 9 am to 7 pm.
