The VI Peel is one formulation, the same every time, rather than a depth we dial in. Booking a VI Peel here means a short drive to Uptown Phoenix for most of the valley. Tasha Wright Ford, RN decides first whether it fits your skin.
What the VI Peel Addresses
Patches that sit symmetrically across the cheeks, the upper lip, or the forehead. Melasma is stubborn, and it punishes anything aggressive.
The VI Peel is one of the gentler routes into pigment work, which is why it comes up early for melasma. It is managed rather than cured, and we say that plainly.
Hormones, heat, and sun all feed melasma. Phoenix supplies two of the three year-round.
What to expect, step by step
Day 1
Skin reads tan or slightly darker and feels tight. The VI Peel is one formulation every time, so the first day looks the same for most patients.
Days 3-7
Peeling begins around day three and runs for three to four days. Do not pull it. The towelettes in your kit are used as directed through this window.
Weeks 2-4
Fresh skin reads brighter and more even. Most patients repeat a VI Peel every few months; pigment concerns often want a short series.
Why Patients Choose Us
Pigment answers to patience more than to strength, and melasma punishes anything pushed too hard. We assess before we book, and nothing gets added while you are in the chair.
Your plan is set by Tasha Wright Ford, RN, Master Injector, 22+ years in nursing and 16+ years injecting. Dr. Anna Mkrtchyan, Naturopathic Medical Doctor (NMD), is our Medical Director. Kelly, our aesthetician of 17+ years, works alongside them.
Every plan follows a full health history and a facial assessment. Both happen before a peel is opened. Your skin tone, your barrier, and your recent sun exposure all decide whether the VI Peel is safe for you right now.
You hear what we would do, what we would not, and what it costs. If a light or a laser suits your pigment better than a peel, we say so. Nobody is booked for the treatment they walked in asking for.
Patient Reviews
Tasha is truly one of the kindest people you will ever meet, and her expertise in Botox is exceptional. I live in another state and still choose to wait to see her because she is that good. She is professional, knowledgeable, and always makes the experience comfortable. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for quality care and amazing results.

Good Questions
The things patients ask before a first VI Peel. If yours is not here, call 602-469-8693 and ask.
The VI Peel is a branded chemical peel that arrives as a set blend rather than something we mix to depth. Because the formulation is fixed, it behaves consistently from patient to patient. That predictability is part of why it is a common starting point for pigment. We carry it at our Uptown Phoenix boutique.
It is one of the tools used for melasma, and its restraint is the reason. Melasma reacts badly to anything aggressive, so a predictable surface peel is often a safer first move than heat or light. Melasma is managed rather than cured, and Tasha Wright Ford, RN will tell you that before you start.
The VI Peel is one branded product with a fixed formulation. Our broader peel work lets us select chemistry and depth for your skin instead. Neither is automatically better. Tasha explains which she is recommending and why, and you can read more on our chemical peels page before you decide.
Most people describe warmth and tingling that builds during application and then settles. It is applied in measured passes while we watch how your skin responds. Nobody is left alone with it. If the sensation is more than you want, tell us and we stop.
That depends on your skin tone, your barrier, your medications, any active breakout, and how much sun you have had recently. We take a full health history and assess your face before booking you. If your skin is not ready, we give you a date to come back rather than treat you anyway.
Sometimes, and often not. Pigment tends to answer over a series, particularly with melasma, where the pattern returns rather than resolves. We will not quote a number of peels before we have seen your skin. You get the expected count at your consultation, along with the price.
We do. Our only location is 707 E Palo Verde Dr, Ste A, Phoenix, AZ 85014. That is Uptown Phoenix, a short drive from most of the valley. Call 602-469-8693 or use our contact page to request an appointment.
