  • Full Glo2 oxygenation and infusion therapy

Deep hydration. Skin that looks intentionally cared for. If The Quickie is maintenance, The Whole Shebang is the full commitment.

2. Bare Back

Back Facial Treatment

Because glowing skin isn’t just for your face. Bare Back is a deep-cleansing back facial designed to remove oil buildup, congestion, and dead skin cells. We exfoliate, perform extractions if needed, and apply a targeted mask based on your skin’s condition.

Perfect for:

  • Back acne
  • Congested skin
  • Summer prep
  • Event-ready skin

No massage. Just results.

3. Damage Control

Post-Laser Recovery Facial in Chicago

After energy-based treatments, your skin deserves recovery, not aggression. Damage Control is designed to soothe inflammation, calm redness, and deeply hydrate post-procedure skin. No exfoliation. No stimulation. Just strategic barrier repair, cooling therapy, and replenishment.

This is repair mode. This is intelligent recovery.

Ideal after Sofwave, Tixel, or Hollywood Spectra treatments.

4. Pre-Game Polish

Pre-Treatment Facial Prep in Chicago

Before we fire the lasers, let’s prep the canvas. Pre-Game Polish is the ideal pre-treatment facial before Sofwave, Tixel, or Hollywood Spectra. We gently exfoliate away surface buildup, clear debris, and optimize your skin barrier so your energy-based treatment performs at its highest level.

Light exfoliation. Hydration. Elevated results.

Recommended for patients preparing for skin tightening or laser resurfacing treatments.

This is not just a facial. This is regulation. The Nervous System Reset includes everything from our Signature Facial, plus enhanced relaxation elements:

Skin health meets stress reduction in one elevated session. Because cortisol shows up on your face.

11. Dermaplaning

Instantly Smoother. Brighter. Better-Prepped Skin.

Sometimes the best glow starts with a clean slate.

Dermaplaning is a safe, non-invasive treatment that gently removes dead skin cells and fine vellus hair (“peach fuzz”) using a sterile surgical blade. The result? Smoother skin, brighter complexion, improved product absorption, and flawless makeup application—all with zero downtime.

Whether you’re looking for an instant refresh or preparing your skin for a more advanced treatment, dermaplaning creates the perfect canvas for healthier, more radiant skin.

Perfect as a standalone treatment or added to any facial with Allison. It also pairs beautifully with many of our medical aesthetic services, helping optimize treatment performance by removing surface buildup and allowing products and energy-based treatments to interact more effectively with the skin.

Benefits of dermaplaning

  • Immediate smoother, softer skin
  • Brighter, more radiant complexion
  • Removes dead skin buildup and peach fuzz
  • Enhances absorption of medical-grade skincare
  • Creates a smoother canvas for makeup application
  • No downtime
  • Safe for most skin types

Perfect Before…

  • Sofwave® skin tightening
  • Tixel® skin resurfacing
  • Hollywood Spectra® laser treatments
  • Glo2Facials
  • Chemical peels (when appropriate)
  • Medical-grade skincare treatments

Whether you’re booking dermaplaning on its own or adding it to one of Allison’s customized facial experiences, it’s one of the easiest ways to elevate your results and leave your skin looking polished, healthy, and glowing.
