Facials in Chicago · Gold CoastMore than a facial. A ritual for your skin.
Medical-grade facials and advanced bundles, rooted in skin health.
Skin care that goes to the root.
Every Modern Wellness facial starts with your skin’s story: what it needs today, what it has been through and where you want it to go. Our estheticians pair classic techniques with advanced technology, such as red light, radiofrequency, IPL and microneedling, to treat what you see on the surface and support what happens beneath it.

Modern Glow
Your skin tells the story of your whole health.
A facial treats what you see. But breakouts, dullness and early lines often have roots beneath the surface. That is why we look at the whole you, not only your face.
Gut health
Breakouts, redness and sensitivity can reflect what happens in your gut.
Hormones
Shifts in hormones can show up as jawline breakouts, dryness or dark spots.
Stress & cortisol
Ongoing stress can weaken your skin barrier and slow its repair.
Sleep
Your skin renews at night. Poor sleep often shows first on your face.
Nutrition & hydration
Nutrients and water build the glow no product can fake.
Inflammation
Low-grade inflammation can speed up visible aging.
Every symptom has a root. We find yours.
When it helps, your facial can be part of a bigger plan with advanced biomarker testing, nutrition and health coaching.
Start with what you want to change.
Choose a concern to see where we would usually start, how to take it further, and the roots we may look at. Your consultation confirms the right ritual for your skin.

- Isotretinoin (Accutane) in the last 6 months
- An active cold sore, infection, rash or open skin in the area
- Recent sunburn, tanning or self-tanner (for IPL and laser)

Your esthetician and our medical team review your history before any advanced treatment. Please tell us about every medication, supplement and skin product you use.
Small habits, better results.
A few simple steps before and after your visit protect your skin and help results last. You will always receive personal aftercare instructions.
Prepare your skin
- Pause exfoliating acids 3 to 5 days before
- Avoid sun, tanning and self-tanner for 2 weeks before IPL or laser
- Tell us about new medications, supplements or skin products
- Drink water and eat a light meal before PRP treatments
- Come as you are: we cleanse your skin before we begin
Protect your glow
- Wear SPF 30 or higher every day, especially after IPL, laser and microneedling
- Skip makeup for 24 hours after microneedling, PRP or RF microneedling
- Avoid the gym, sauna and hot yoga for 24 to 48 hours after advanced treatments
- Avoid retinoids and exfoliating acids for 7 days after advanced treatments
- Expect mild redness for a few hours to 2 days after advanced bundles. After IPL, dark spots may darken and flake away within 1 to 2 weeks

Which facial is right for me?
Start with a consultation or our Signature Facial. We read your skin, ask about your goals and recommend the right facial or bundle for you.
What makes a facial “medical grade”?
We use professional, medical-grade products and technology such as red light, radiofrequency, IPL, laser and microneedling, chosen after a skin assessment and performed by licensed estheticians with medical oversight.
How often should I get a facial?
Most skin does well with a facial every 4 to 6 weeks. Advanced bundles usually work best as a series, about 4 weeks apart, and we build that plan with you.
Is there downtime?
Classic facials have none. Bundles with microneedling, laser, IPL or PRP may leave mild redness for a few hours to 2 days, and we give you clear aftercare.
Can facials help with acne?
Yes, facials can calm breakouts and clear congestion. For ongoing acne, we may also look at the roots, such as hormones, gut health and nutrition, with our medical team.
Can I get a facial while pregnant?
Many gentle facials can be adapted during pregnancy. We skip microneedling, radiofrequency, IPL, laser, PRP and some active ingredients. Please tell us you are pregnant or breastfeeding when you book.
Do you offer facials for men?
Yes. Our Men Facial is designed for buildup, congestion, enlarged pores and irritation from shaving, and men are welcome to any facial or bundle.
Can I combine facials with neurotoxins or fillers?
Yes, and they work beautifully together. We time them so each treatment can do its best work, usually leaving some days between a facial and injectables in the same area.
Are facials included in memberships?
Yes. Medical facials are included in every membership: Serenity, Balance and Longevity. You can use your monthly services for facials or mix them with other care.
Do you offer payment plans or accept HSA/FSA?
Yes. We offer flexible payment plans through CareCredit, Klarna, Affirm, Afterpay and Cherry, so you can split the cost of your care over time. We also accept HSA and FSA cards. Eligibility depends on your plan and the treatment, and cosmetic facials often do not qualify, so please check with your plan administrator. Our concierge team is happy to help you choose the option that works best for you.
