Perfect Image is a unique mother/daughter business. Holly Schmid started it over 30 years ago. She began doing electrolysis, which at the time was the only option for permanent hair removal/reduction. In 1999 Perfect Image incorporated the laser for hair removal. Holly was the first electrologist in Illinois to use a laser for hair removal. At the time she was working with a cosmetic surgeon and together they established a growing practice.

Holly also owned and operated the Electrolysis Institute of Illinois and trained many of the electrologists currently working in the Chicago area, including her daughter Jackie Walton. Jackie joined the practice in 2005.

They have since added other treatments to improve skin aesthetic. Perfect Image Med Spa now offers IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and Fractional Skin Resurfacing.

Holly has three grown daughters, lives with her husband of 42 years and their dog in Grayslake. When she isn’t at the Arlington Heights office, she helps run another business with her husband. Best Alzheimer’s Products, Inc. is an online retail store providing information and products to help people with dementia.

Jackie is a busy mother of three children, two boys and a girl. When she isn’t at the office, she is driving, shopping, cooking, cleaning, and all the things that come with taking care of 3 little ones. When Jackie has a spare minute, she enjoys reading and gardening. She and her husband live in Arlington Heights, conveniently close to the office.
