Healthy, glowing skin can feel out of reach when dryness, acne, uneven texture, dullness, large pores, sun damage, or early signs of aging keep appearing in the mirror. The right skin care treatments can improve your complexion without surgery or a long recovery. Visiting a reputable clinic that offers a full range of treatments is key to achieving the best possible results.
At Old Town Med Spa, your treatment plan may include chemical peels, dermaplaning, facials, microneedling, Morpheus8, Scarlet, or a thoughtful combination of services based on your skin goals. Old Town Med Spa serves patients in River North, Bucktown, and Lincoln Park, with care provided by licensed estheticians and medical leadership by founders and medical directors Dr. Nael Gharbi and Dr. Shazel Gharbi. The team also includes an Internal Medicine Hospitalist who provides aesthetic services after extensive training from our founders. You’re in great hands.
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels use exfoliating ingredients to remove damaged outer skin cells and support a smoother, more radiant complexion. Old Town Med Spa offers chemical peel options, including the VI Peel, which is commonly chosen for concerns such as discoloration, acne, uneven skin texture, and early signs of aging.
Peels come in different strengths. Some are light and refreshing, while others create more visible peeling over several days. During your consultation, your provider will recommend a peel based on your skin tone, sensitivity, goals, and schedule.
Dermaplaning
Dermaplaning gently removes dead skin cells and fine facial hair from the skin’s surface. The result is skin that feels softer and looks smoother right away.
This treatment can be a good choice before an event or as part of a regular skin maintenance plan. It can also help makeup apply more evenly and allow skin care products to sit better on the skin.
Facials
Facials are a helpful option for regular skin maintenance, hydration, cleansing, and glow. Old Town Med Spa offers several facial options, including Hydrafacial™, ZO facial, ultrasound facial, and more.
A facial may include cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, hydration, masks, or targeted products. Your esthetician can guide you toward the right facial based on whether your skin needs moisture, brightening, calming, or deep pore care.
Microneedling
Microneedling creates tiny controlled microchannels in the skin. This process supports the skin’s natural repair response, which can help improve the look of texture, fine lines, acne scars, and overall tone.
Most people choose microneedling as a series of treatments for gradual improvement. Mild redness is common afterward, and your provider will explain how to care for your skin as it recovers.
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy. This treatment can help improve the look of mild skin laxity, texture, fine lines, and uneven tone by reaching deeper layers of the skin than traditional microneedling.
Morpheus8 is often chosen for the face, jawline, neck, and other areas where skin may look less firm. Your provider can explain whether Morpheus8, traditional microneedling, Scarlet, or another treatment best matches your goals.
Scarlet
Scarlet is another radiofrequency microneedling treatment that can support firmer, smoother-looking skin. It is commonly used for texture, pores, fine lines, and mild laxity.
Your Old Town Med Spa provider can compare Scarlet and Morpheus8 during your consultation. The best choice depends on your skin, goals, treatment area, and how much downtime you are comfortable with.
Your Skin Care Consultation
Your consultation helps your provider learn about your skin, goals, history, and routine. You can discuss what bothers you most, whether that is dullness, breakouts, signs of aging, sun damage, or texture.
Your provider may recommend one treatment or a step-by-step plan. Some patients start with facials or dermaplaning, while others may benefit from peels, microneedling, Morpheus8, or Scarlet.
