Facials in Orland Park & Elmhurst, IL

When it comes to maintaining a great complexion, having a good home skin care routine is important. Every now and then, you may want to enhance your routine with a medical-grade facial. To help make your skin radiant and healthy, we recommend customizable and professional facials. Combining a mix of the latest technology and industry best techniques, such as the Fire & Ice Facial, Diamond Glow™, and dermaplaning, we can completely customize your facial. After a consultation to assess your complexion and discuss your cosmetic goals, we can select the best combination of medical-grade products and facial techniques for you. Further rejuvenate and pamper your skin by personalizing your facial with additional treatments, such as a chemical peel, or BOTOX®. Schedule an appointment and receive a professional facial at JEM Medspa to boost the health and beauty of your complexion.

Personalized facial treatment by our experienced team at JEM Medspa can improve the health and appearance of your skin with a host of great benefits that include:

• Exfoliating the skin to remove dead and damaged skin cells
• Removing dirt, debris, skin oil, etc.
• Rehydrating the skin
• Improving overall skin health
• Achieving a refreshed, rejuvenated look
• Balancing uneven tone and texture
• Repairing sun damage
• Preventing signs of aging like wrinkles and lines
• Brightening the complexion
• Helping to prevent acne, blackheads, and whiteheads
• Pairing well with other aesthetic procedures

At JEM Medspa, professional facials are a good treatment option for all ages and skin types. Each facial is personalized to address patients' cosmetic concerns and goals. Typically, facials help reduce the signs of aging (fine lines, wrinkles, and dry patches), improve sun-damaged skin (spots, rough texture, uneven tone), cleanse (acne and clogged pores), and brighten the complexion. Additionally, professional facials help teens and adults who experience chronic skin conditions, such as widespread acne, rosacea, and sensitive skin. 

During your consultation, we will create a custom treatment plan that outlines skin care products and techniques. While we perform the facial, patients can relax in a comfortable treatment chair. Every facial is personalized; however, most treatments start with a deep cleanse to eliminate any dirt, oil, and makeup. After the skin is cleaned, steam is used to open clogged skin pores so we can easily extract blackheads and whiteheads. Usually, this step is followed by exfoliation, either performed manually or with an add-on service, such as a chemical peel. For additional pampering, patients can add a mask or serum to their facial. At the end of your treatment, we will apply a moisturizer with SPF to protect the skin from sun damage.

After your treatment, you may notice some irritation and redness, but these symptoms should subside within a day. Many patients have visible improvements in the appearance and feel of their skin immediately after their treatment. To extend the results of your professional facial, please ask one of our skilled team members about developing the best at-home skin care routine. We will provide details about when to schedule follow-up facial appointments at JEM Medspa. 

How can I maintain the results of my facial at home?
JEM Medspa recommends following a consistent skin care routine at home to extend your results. We can suggest products that may benefit your skin type and cosmetic goals. It's also important to wear a hat or high SPF sunscreen when spending time outdoors. Exposure to UV rays can deepen existing creases or wrinkles.

How much does a facial cost?
The cost of a facial depends on the products used and whether we combine your treatment with other procedures, like BOTOX. Our specialists will develop a personalized plan based on the information we learn during your consultation. We can also give you information about easy financing options at our facility — so there are no surprises later on.

How often should I get a facial?
Patients can schedule facials several times a year to enhance the health and appearance of their skin. When received regularly, facials can remove dead skin and encourage new cell growth, which drastically improves your complexion over time. In your initial consultation, JEM Medspa can recommend how often to make appointments to keep your skin beautiful long-term.

When can I reapply makeup after a facial?

While there is likely to harm in reapplying makeup after a routine, noninvasive facial, patients are typically encouraged to let their skin "breathe" for a day or two before putting makeup back on. Applying makeup too soon after a facial may re-clog pores that were cleared with extraction during the facial and potentially could introduce unwanted bacteria that increases the risk of acne, infections, and other unwanted skin problems.

Which kind of facial should I get?

Prior to treatment, one of our knowledgeable providers will closely assess your skin, discuss your unique concerns and goals, and help you decide which type of facial may be most appropriate and effective for you. Additionally, each facial can be further customized to meet your needs.

Are professional facials really better than at-home face masks?

The tools, techniques, and professional-grade products used during an in-office facial are able to address deeper concerns that a superficial over-the-counter skincare product may not be effective for.

At JEM Medspa in Elmhurst and Orland Park, IL, we understand the power of looking and feeling confident in your appearance.

Using a variety of technologies and techniques, like UltraSonic Facial, Diamond Glow™, and dermaplaning, each facial is personalized for your skin needs and cosmetic concerns.
