The Lightening Lift Peel is a professional treatment from Image Skincare designed to brighten dull skin and reduce dark spots, redness, and uneven tone. It’s especially helpful for people dealing with pigmentation caused by sun damage, hormones, or breakouts. The peel combines gentle yet powerful ingredients like lactic acid and brightening botanicals to safely exfoliate the skin and support a more even, radiant complexion.
This peel is part of the IMAGE Signature Peel series and works well for all skin types that struggle with uneven tone and pigmentation. It’s also safe for sensitive skin and does not cause aggressive peeling or long recovery time.
How It Works
The Lightening Lift uses a blend of 30% lactic acid and a lightening complex that helps exfoliate the upper layer of dead skin cells while working deep to fade dark spots and discoloration. During the treatment, your skin is thoroughly cleansed, and the peel is applied and left on for a few minutes. It gently removes dull surface cells and encourages skin renewal from within.
The lactic acid softens and hydrates the skin, while the brightening agents, like licorice root and bearberry extract, target melanin and reduce the appearance of pigmentation. The treatment ends with calming serums and SPF to protect the freshly treated skin.
What You’ll Feel
During the application, you might feel a slight tingling or warm sensation, which is normal and a sign the peel is working. This usually lasts only a few minutes. After the treatment, your skin will feel clean and refreshed, possibly with a healthy glow or slight pinkness, which fades quickly.
What to Expect After Treatment
There’s little to no downtime after the Lightening Lift Peel. Your skin might feel a bit tight or dry the next day, and some people notice mild flaking after a few days, especially if it’s the first treatment. This is part of the natural renewal process.
It’s important to avoid sun exposure and use SPF daily after the peel. You’ll also be asked to follow gentle aftercare and avoid strong skincare products for several days.
You may see brighter, clearer skin even after one session, but for best results, a series of treatments is recommended. Your skin will look more even, smooth, and radiant over time.
