Not many treatments are as effective at transforming the skin as chemical peels. These tried-and-true skin-renewing powerhouses are beloved by pretty much everyone in the aesthetic community, and renowned for their restorative and regenerating effects.

Chemical Peels at Ultimate Image
Lactic Enzyme Peel (10%)
Our 10% lactic enzyme peel contains lactic acid, which is a form of alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) derived from milk. This mildly exfoliating peel hydrates the skin, lightens hyperpigmentation, and improves overall skin tone and texture, all while removing dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. Perfect for beginners or those with sensitive skin, the lactic enzyme peel will leave you with a glowing complexion with minimal downtime.
Glycolic Acid Peel (35% or 50%)
Glycolic acid is a powerful form of AHA, blasting off dead skin cells to reveal the fresh new skin beneath. Our glycolic acid peel is available in two strengths and improves many skin issues such as acne, uneven skin tone, wrinkles, fine lines, and more. Additionally, glycolic acid peels stimulate collagen production to continue improving the skin’s condition for months to come.
Salicylic Acid Peel (35%)
If acne or oily skin is your problem, our salicylic acid peel may be the answer. Salicylic acid is an oil-soluble beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that digs deep to clean sebum and other contaminants from the pores. Salicylic acid can also help with inflammation and redness that plagues so many acne sufferers. Banish those blemishes by scheduling a salicylic acid peel today!
Jessner Peel (28% Lactic Acid, 28% Salicylic Acid, and 14% Resorcinol)
The Jessner Peel is for those who want significant, long-lasting results with customizable potency. Great for diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, lightening hyperpigmentation spots, improving acne, evening out skin tone, and smoothing out skin texture, the multifaceted Jessner Peel deeply exfoliates to promote skin cell renewal. The Jessner peel’s intensity can be customized by simply applying additional layers, allowing the aesthetician to target specific skin layers and issues. With just one short week average recovery time, you’ll be saying hello to a radiant glow in no time!
TCA Intense Peel (20%)
If you’re dealing with deep wrinkles, sun damage, severe discoloration, or significant acne scarring, trichloroacetic acid (TCA) chemical peels are a great option. This medium to deeply exfoliating peel is customizable similar to the Jessner peel, by applying additional layers. TCA peels penetrate much deeper than our other peels, leading to major peeling for 5-7 days on average. You won’t believe how revived your skin appears after this profoundly rejuvenating peel!
Mandelic Acid Peel (25%)
Another great option for beginners or clients with sensitive skin, the mandelic acid peel is great at regulating sebum production and unclogging pores with almost no downtime. Mandelic acid peels are also great at improving age spots, lightening dark spots, evening out skin tone, and promoting skin cell turnover. Furthermore, mandelic acid peels boost collagen production for continued improvement for weeks after the peel treatment.
BioRePeelCI3 FND Peel (35% TCA , Salicylic acid, Tartaric Acid, Amino Acids and Vitamins C and B2)
The BioRePeelCI3 FND (BIO RE) peel is our most intense, boasting a whopping 35% TCA, along with several other therapeutic ingredients. This deeply penetrating peel works overtime to significantly reduce the appearance of deep wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and acne scars. The BIO RE peel also stimulates collagen production for firmer skin that improves in the weeks after the peel. By including skin-nourishing ingredients like amino acids, vitamin C, and vitamin B2, this peel replenishes while it exfoliates, giving clients the best of both worlds. If you want the most dramatic results possible, ask our aestheticians about this one-of-a-kind skin resurfacing solution.
VI Advanced Peel
The VI Advanced Peel is for clients who want an aggressive approach to skin resurfacing by using a powerful combination of ingredients, including TCA, phenol, retinoic acid, vitamins, and minerals. VI Advanced deeply exfoliates and thoroughly hydrates to deliver dramatic results, giving the client a significant transformation in their skin’s appearance and texture.
VI Precision Plus Peel
For targeted skin repair, the VI Precision Plus peel is a strong chemical peel that can tackle specific skin issues and areas with precision like no other. Stubborn hyperpigmentation, dark sun spots, severe melasma, and other highly visible skin issues can be focused on and improved using this proprietary formulation of TCA, phenol, kojic acid, hydroquinone, retinoids, and vitamin C. We recommend this peel for anyone who needs to single out specific areas.
The Perfect Derma™
The Perfect Derma peel contains glutathione as the main ingredient, renowned for its ability to counteract oxidative damage, reduce inflammation, and curb melanin production. By combining glutathione with TCA, phenol, salicylic acid, kojic acid, retinoic acid, and vitamin C, the Perfect Derma peel penetrates deep into the skin’s layers, blasting away dead skin cells and stimulating cell turnover. This has a marked effect on conditions such as hyperpigmentation, acne scarring, active acne, fine lines, wrinkles, and more. Try this popular peel if you’re ready for all the benefits glutathione has to offer.
