A professional Image Skincare treatment designed to correct all forms of hyperpigmentation — sun spots, melasma, post-acne marks, and uneven tone. The formula pairs lactic acid (the gentlest, most hydrating AHA) with a powerful complex of botanical brighteners — kojic acid, bearberry, licorice, mulberry, and Sealena — that work through multiple mechanisms to inhibit pigment production and block its transfer into the skin's surface layer. Echinacea stem cells calm inflammatory pigmentation, while aloe vera, mallow, and comfrey soothe throughout. Best results come from a series of 4–6 sessions every 2–4 weeks — most clients see visible brightening after the second peel.
Image Skincare is one of the most respected professional peel brands in the US, and the Lightening Lift is their signature brightening protocol. The formula is designed to be strong enough to shift pigmentation while remaining tolerable to a range of skin tones — always adapted at consultation.
The peel is typically recommended as a series of sessions spaced a few weeks apart, paired with a consistent SPF and pigment-focused home care routine. Your specialist will design the plan at your consultation.
Your specialist reviews your pigmentation history, skin tone, and any current active ingredients you use at home.
A professional double cleanse and neutralising prep make sure the skin is ready for even peel application.
The Image Skincare Lightening Lift formula is applied in careful layers — always paced to how the skin responds.
The peel is neutralised, then a calming, hydrating finish with moisturiser and mandatory broad-spectrum SPF.
Every Lightening Lift Peel at Luma Skin follows the same protocol — professional-strength Image Skincare formulation, personalised at consultation.
