What Are the Types of Chemical Peels?
Lightening Lift Treatment This resurfacing cocktail is a wonderful blend of agents designed to
tighten and brighten. We typically use this formula for treating
superficial pigmentation problems, sun spots, age spots, pregnancy
mask, and uneven skin tones. This formula breaks up melanin blocks
in the deeper layers of the skin. The deeper the pigmentation
damage, the greater the need for additional pigmentation treatments.
Our staff will design a program of a variety of treatments
specifically to meet YOUR needs.
You can expect to feel itchy and prickly activity during the
treatment. The brown spots will get darker, and then shed in 3 to 5
days. The skin will be smoother, lighter, and progress to being
spot-free. It is very important for you to use our Image
International Physician- Grade Skin Care Products after and during
these treatments for optimum results. It is mandatory for you to use
our Image International Solar Defense Gel SPF 30 daily to prevent
reversal of the improvement and damage to your skin.
Wrinkle Lift Treatment These resurfacing agents penetrate very quickly to the lower levels
of the skin to work deeply. It is designed to regenerate new cells
and increase the production of collagen to create a younger,
healthy, and less wrinkled skin. This treatment is great for just
about anyone, although we typically recommend it for all levels of
aging skin and some pigmentation (brown or red) problems. Our staff
will design a program of a variety of treatments specifically to
meet YOUR needs.
After this treatment, you will feel a prickly, itchy feeling while
the solution is working. Your skin may appear pink to very red, but
this is normal. Depending on your skin, you may have some redness
for many hours after the treatment. Immediately following the
treatment, your skin will feel tight and fresh. Within 24 to 48
hours the skin may experience light shedding of old, dead skin
cells. This is how the regeneration of new cells and increased
production of collagen happens to create younger, healthy, and less
wrinkled skin. As with all of our treatments, it is very important
for you to use our Image International Physician-Grade Skin Care
Products for optimum results. It is mandatory for you to use our
Image International Solar Defense Products to prevent treatment
result reversal or damage to your skin.
Acne Lift Treatment This resurfacing cocktail is a combination of chemicals designed to
take two actions. One agent works to slow down the sebaceous gland,
thus slowing oil production that clogs the pores. The second agent
breaks up the keratin in the cell, gently exfoliating dead skin
cells, and increasing cellular turnover. This dual effect makes it
an excellent, safe and gentle peel. We typically recommend this
treatment for acne or oily-acne prone skin or skin with large pores.
Our staff will design a program of a variety of treatments
specifically to meet YOUR needs.
While the solution is working, you will feel an itchy, prickly
feeling. Heat will be generated from the agents and redness will
immediately occur. Oil from your skin may be drawn to the surface.
The skin will feel tight and fresh. Shedding will occur within 24
hours, and the skin may appear darker, due to the exfoliation of
dead skin that has melanin present. The dead skin cells will gently
shed. This treatment is ideal for both young and mature skin that
has excess oil, and large pores. As with all of our treatments, for
optimum results it is very important for you to use our Image
International Physician-Grade Skin Care Products. It is mandatory
for you to use our Image International Solar Defense Products to
protect your skin from damage.
Beta-Lift Treatment This resurfacing treatment is very warm and penetrates very quickly
and effectively. It works to slow down the sebaceous gland, thus
slowing oil production that clogs pores. Immediate warm, flushing
activity will be felt; the more severe the oil production or acne,
the higher the level of activity. We typically recommend this
treatment for facial acne, severe Whiteheads or Blackheads, and back
and chest acne. Our staff will design a program of a variety of
treatments to meet YOUR needs.
You will feel a very warm, flushing activity during the treatment.
You should experience smoother skin, immediate oil reduction, and
reduction of active acne within 24 hours. During this period, you
will experience tightness, brown spots may initially and then shed
off, and the acne may get worse before it can get better. This is
normal. As with all of our treatments, for optimum results it is
very important for you to use our Image International Physician
Grade Skin Care Products and it is mandatory for you to use our
Image International Solar Defense Products for protection from
damage.
4-Layer Face Lift This treatment contains a cocktail of pharmaceutical-grade
ingredients that immediately drench your skin to tighten, lighten,
and brighten. High doses of Vitamin C (a powerful antioxidant)
penetrate your skin to tighten it. Another agent exfoliates your
skin, and gentle but highly active medical-grade enzymes speed up
cellular turnover and tighten up your skin. We recommend this
treatment for Rosacea, dry/dehydrated skin, smokers’ skin,
dull/tired skin, and it is even safe for pregnant women! Our staff
will design a program of a variety of treatments to meet YOUR needs!
You will feel a soothing feeling to your skin during this treatment.
Your skin will “glow” and feel tight and fresh. Any fine lines and
fine discoloration will be refined. As with all of our treatments,
for optimum results it is very important for you to use our Image

for you to use our Image International Solar Defense Products for
