There's a new facial peel that works even for women of color. It only takes a few minutes and patients say it's virtually pain-free

Marcela Perkins has brown age spots, and as a woman of color her options were limited - until now.

In 10 minutes, Marcela gets the new "Vi Peel." An aesthetician swabs on the solution. In three days, the upper layer of skin will start to shed.

"It's worth it, I really want them gone," said Marcela.

"This is much more patient friendly than peels we've had," said Dr. Bill J. Johnson of Innovations Medspa.

Dr. Bill Johnson says the Vi Peel is for all skin types. He says while it's less painful, it's also highly effective.

"It's a very powerful acid, we've got acid in it, and Retin-A, we've got some vitamin A in it and some other things that are soothing at the same time deep penetration," he said.

Maria Roque also wants to correct brown age spots.

"When I was pregnant I got this mark right here and can't make it go away," she said.

Both women should see an improvement in seven days.

The Vi Peel costs around $300. It's available at Caladora Skin Care clinics and at the Poly Clinic, among other locations.
