Rejuvenate And Revitalize Your Face
Your face is your greatest asset. It’s the first thing people see, and that’s why we always want it looking it’s absolute best. To keep it looking great, you need to make sure your face is clean, moisturized, smooth and detoxified. And while daily care is important, there are some aspects of facial care that we just can’t do ourselves.
Our facials are clinically designed to keep your face looking it’s best under the expert care of our aesthetician Aggie Chapsky-Astrella. Approved by Dr. Cohen, a world class facial plastic surgeon, all of our clinical facials offer a unique, revitalizing experience.
What does a clinical facial do that home treatments cannot? Let us walk you through the reasons patients return to us time and time again for clinical facials in Glenview.
1. You are dealing with skin issues
This is the most common reason patients visit us for a medical facial. Genetics, lifestyle, and environmental causes can result in disruptions to your complexion. While the occasional pimple or dry spot may be remedied at home, many people choose to deal with troublesome or persistent skin problems with a medical facial. Common skin issues we treat include:
2. You are looking to prevent skin issues
If you’ve managed to get your skin to a good place that you’re happy with, that’s no reason to stop putting the work in! Scheduling a regular facial with our expert aesthetician can help fend off future breakouts, signs of aging, and other skin problems.
3. Combating the signs of aging
Any amount of time you put towards caring for your skin works to preserve it, but certain treatments are geared specifically to provide anti-aging effects. Nowadays, many people are beginning to work anti-aging treatments into their care regimen from a young age. No matter where you’re at in your journey, we can provide you with treatments that will help your skin look as brilliant and youthful as you feel.
4. You simply want to pamper yourself!
We believe that giving your skin the effective care it needs shouldn’t be seen as a chore. At our office, we take steps to help patients feel comfortable during their treatment. Many even find the medical facial process relaxing and an enjoyable experience out of the hustle and bustle of their daily life.
Before you have a clinical facial in Glenview, you will receive a free consultation with Aggie, our aesthetician. During your free consultation, the state of your skin will be thoroughly assessed. We will then ask about your current skincare regimen, including what products you use. This is a good time to mention if you have had any negative reactions to products or other skin-related treatments. We use this information to determine the type of treatment that will work best for your goals.
Once it’s been decided which facial treatment is right for you, we will begin prepping your skin. Depending on your specific facial treatment, you may undergo facial cleansing, steaming, exfoliating, and a facial massage. We will talk you through every step. The process can take anywhere from 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the treatment. At some points during the experience, you may notice a bit of discomfort or tingling depending on the ingredients used, but no pain.
Afterwards, your face may be slightly inflamed, sensitive and pink. This usually goes down within a couple of hours, but will not get in the way of everyday activities or stop you from applying make-up. The true results of your facial will be seen in the days to come, as it takes some time for your skin to react to the treatment. If you do have lingering symptoms after 48 hours, please contact us right away.
Those with deeper complexions may have heard that certain treatments are not as effective or ideal for their skin. Our aesthetician is fully licensed and has experience working with patients with a wide range of complexions. We will be happy to answer any questions you have during your free consultation and provide you with options recommended for your skin tone and type.

There are facials and procedures that are effective on all skin types and colors. Your skin’s exact color and condition will impact the effectiveness of your facial. We provide a free consultation so that you know what options will work best for your exact skin type and color.
Facials are safe for people in a wide age range, and the relaxing and rejuvenating feeling of a facial is just as enjoyable for a young face as an older one.
While each facial is slightly different and will leave your skin having different needs, it’s best to keep your skin as hydrated as possible. Keeping your skin hydrated will maximize the benefits of the facial and allow your skin to heal and regenerate properly. We also advise you to stay away from exfoliating products and washes for a few days after, as your skin will be more sensitive and harsh textures may irritate or cause damage. In addition, it’s important to not pick at your face. While this is always bad for your skin, it’s an extra no-no right after a facial as your skin will be sensitive and healing. As always, wear plenty of facial sunscreen when going outside. While SPF is always a necessity, it’s even more vital right after a facial.
We recommend receiving facials once a month. Your skin’s life cycle is about 4 weeks long, meaning that’s when cells grow back and regenerate. Getting a facial every month or so will keep your skin glowing and fresh all year long! Especially if you have acne, sun spots, wrinkles, or other skin issues you want to work on, getting consistent facials will deliver more consistent results.
Absolutely! For starters, any facial you get in-office will be much stronger and more effective than a facial you buy at the store and do at home. We use professional-grade ingredients so you get the most out of your treatment and so that the ingredients penetrate deeper. In addition, if you use chemicals at home that are too harsh or not fitting for your skin type or condition, you may do more harm than good. Our esthetician is professionally trained and licensed to know exactly what chemicals would be good for your skin.
