Why Fall Is the Perfect Time for a Chemical Peel
As the leaves start to change and the temperatures drop, there’s something refreshing about this time of year — cozy sweaters, warm drinks, and… better skin? Yep!
Believe it or not, fall is one of the best times to schedule a chemical peel, especially if you’ve been thinking about tackling sun damage, uneven tone, fine lines, or breakouts. At bare. medical aesthetics, we’re big fans of the VI Peel, and fall is the perfect season to let this treatment work its magic.
Let’s talk about why your skin loves this time of year, what makes VI Peels so effective, and how you can head into the holidays glowing and confident.
why fall is the season for peels
After months of Arizona sunshine, your skin has probably been through a lot… UV exposure, sweat, sunscreen buildup, and maybe a little neglect during summer travels. Fall is the ideal time to hit reset and repair the effects of summer before winter dryness kicks in.
There are a few key reasons fall is the sweet spot:
Less sun exposure: Cooler weather means you’re not outside as much, which makes it easier to protect your skin post-peel.
Perfect prep for the holidays: Your results will be glowing just in time for holiday gatherings and photos.
Better healing: Dry, mild weather helps minimize irritation and gives your skin a calm environment to recover.
Basically, fall gives your skin the downtime and protection it needs to heal beautifully — and that’s what makes your results really shine.
meet the vi peel family
We love the VI Peel because it’s medical-grade, customizable, and delivers serious results without weeks of downtime. Whether your main goal is anti-aging, clearing acne, or brightening up dark spots, there’s a version of the VI Peel designed just for that.
At bare., we offer three of the most popular VI Peel formulas:
vi peel advanced
Perfect for: Aging skin, fine lines, and loss of elasticity.
This peel targets deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen and smooth texture. It’s a great option for anyone looking to soften fine lines, firm up, and refresh dull or tired skin. Think of it as your “aging gracefully” reset button.
vi peel precision plus
Perfect for: Sun damage, melasma, and discoloration.
This is one of our go-to treatments for uneven tone and stubborn dark spots. It works to lighten pigmentation and even out your complexion, giving you that radiant, lit-from-within glow. The Precision Plus formula is a favorite before big events — and it pairs perfectly with fall timing after all that summer sun exposure.
vi peel purify with precision plus
Perfect for: Acne and post-acne marks.
If you’re dealing with active breakouts, congestion, or lingering acne scars, this one’s for you. It tackles bacteria, clears out pores, reduces inflammation, and helps fade pigmentation from old blemishes — all while giving your skin a smoother, more balanced texture.
Each formula has a unique focus, but all share one thing in common: they resurface and renew your skin at a cellular level, revealing smoother, brighter, and healthier skin underneath.
what to expect from your vi peel
If you’ve never had a chemical peel before, don’t worry — we’ll walk you through the process step-by-step. A VI Peel is a simple in-office treatment that takes about 30 minutes, and most people notice peeling starting around days 3–5.
The type of peeling or shedding may vary depending on the state of your skin. If you don’t experience heavy shedding, it doesn’t mean your peel isn’t working — it usually just means your skin is in healthier condition and has less buildup to remove. The real transformation happens beneath the surface, where the VI Peel stimulates collagen production and cellular renewal long after the visible peeling has stopped.
Here’s the general timeline:
Days 1–2: Your skin might feel tight or slightly flushed.
Days 3–5: Peeling begins — typically heavier around the mouth, nose, and cheeks.
Days 6–7: The shedding slows, and fresh, radiant skin starts to appear.
By the one-week mark, you’ll already notice softer, smoother skin with improved tone and clarity. The best part? VI Peels continue to work beneath the surface for weeks afterward, stimulating collagen and ongoing renewal..
We’ll give you everything you need to take care of your skin post-peel, including a gentle home care kit to soothe and protect your fresh glow.
pair it with the right products
To really maximize your results, we’ll help you pair your peel with the right at-home skincare routine. Think hydrating serums, vitamin C, and SPF, all tailored to your skin’s needs. Using the right products after a VI Peel helps extend your glow, prevent future damage, and keep your results lasting longer.
This is also the perfect time to simplify your routine. Post-peel skin loves gentle, nourishing products — nothing harsh or overcomplicated.
