Here in the Midwest, Summer is for many of us the favorite time of year, but the sun that we crave so much leaves a lasting effect on your skin. There are ways to restore your skin from the stress inflicted by UVA and UVB rays during the summer months.
The Whole Beauty Institute® offers a quick and noninvasive exfoliating treatment that removes inactive or dead skin cells. The treatment is known as dermaplaning. This helps new cells regenerate and come to the surface and removes the vellus hairs that create debris and oil, which can clog pores. It is a safe and simple procedure that is done in a comfortable and relaxing environment.
DermaPlaning uses a special blade that is held at a 45 degree angle to the surface of the skin. The Whole Beauty® Institute clinician gently moves the blade along the contour of the face to exfoliate the skin. Depending on the severity, depth and sensitivity of the skin, appointments range from 15 to 60 minutes. The deeper the lines, and more severe the build-up on the skin, the more time is needed for an appropriate treatment.
This skin quenching treatment provides the ultimate in intense hydration. Perfect for all skin types, the Oxygen Facial can penetrate deep into the epidermis allowing for visible improvement of fine lines, wrinkles and texture of the skin.
Enhanced Oxygen Facials have emerged as an extremely popular treatment at the Whole Beauty® Institute. In this pleasant spa-like treatment one of our skilled aesthetics team uses a stream of oxygen to gently push beneficial compounds into the skin.
Chemical Peel treatments for hyperpigmentation provide stimulation of collagen production, improvement of skin tone, texture and fading of dark spots. Patients with Melasma will benefit greatly from this treatment. Proper skin evaluation prior to your peel is important and will help predict the outcome of your peel. Appointments are available in our Chicago and Winnetka offices.
