Aesthetic Services Specialist

What are aesthetic services?

Aesthetic services aim to help you look your very best. While aesthetic services can get you healthier skin in many cases, their main goal is to address your specific skin concerns. 

Medical Dermatology Associates of Chicago offers a full complement of aesthetic services in-office for your convenience. 

What aesthetic services are available?

Some of the wide-ranging aesthetic services available at Medical Dermatology Associates of Chicago include:

Chemical peels

Chemical peels use acids that resurface your skin and target specific skin issues. Three popular types of peels include glycolic acid peels for anti-aging, salicylic acid peels for acne-prone skin, and Topix Perfect 10 peels that use acid-layering technology to improve your skin. 

Medical facials

Medical facials are customizable treatments to help with acne, aging skin, rosacea, and skin dullness. There's a variety of facials to choose from, including mini facials and back facials, and pregnancy facials, which are tailored to your unique needs during pregnancy.

HydraFacial

HydraFacial® uses cutting-edge technology to dramatically improve your skin in multiple ways in a 30-45 minute treatment. 

Your HydraFacial includes skin cleansing, extractions, and hydration, and you can add super serums to effectively target a variety of issues like acne and fine lines. You can also add lymphatic drainage, red light, or blue light to achieve specific skin goals.

Microdermabrasion

In microdermabrasion, fine sodium bicarbonate crystals slough off the uppermost layer of skin. This treatment can reduce fine lines and large pores while brightening and refining your skin.

Microneedling

Microneedling uses tiny needles to prick holes in your upper skin layers. The needles stimulate the dermal skin layer where you make collagen, the protein that gives your skin firmness and support. Microneedling encourages skin turnover and helps to reverse the signs of aging like lines and wrinkles.

Dermaplaning

Dermaplaning is a treatment that removes the topmost layer of dead skin cells, along with the fine hair on your face. It can give you smoother and more glowing skin. 

Laser hair removal

Laser hair removal uses light energy to heat the root of your hair. The heat destroys the hair follicle, which prevents it from growing back. Popular areas for laser hair removal include the legs, bikini area, upper lip, and underarms.

Cosmetic laser treatments

Cosmetic laser treatments use light energy to improve the appearance of your skin. Options include non-ablative skin treatments, vascular lesion removal, and skin resurfacing. 

Botox

Botox® Cosmetic injections treat fine lines and wrinkles in the forehead, between the eyebrows, and around your eyes. This injectable treatment works for 3-6 months at a time. 

Many people choose a few different treatments to help them reach their goals, so you can typically have multiple treatments during one appointment if desired.

How long do the results of aesthetic services last?

Results can last from a week to several months, depending on the treatment. The Medical Dermatology Associates of Chicago team can help you maximize your results through top-grade skin care products and regular follow-up appointments.
