Discover the Top Medspa Treatments for Your Needs

Your guide to advanced skin + facial rejuvenation at The Aesthetics Collective, Lincolnshire IL

If you’ve been feeling like your skin looks dull, tired, or just not as lifted or smooth as it used to be, you’re not alone. Aging, stress, hormones, and sun exposure all show up on our face and skin over time—and while that’s normal, it doesn’t mean you’re stuck with it.

At The Aesthetics Collective, we focus on evidence-based, non-surgical treatments designed to enhance your natural beauty, restore structure, and improve your skin long term. Whether you’re looking for subtle rejuvenation, collagen rebuilding, or targeted pigment correction, we offer options that actually work.

Let’s break down the most effective medspa treatments clients are choosing right now.

1. Neuromodulators + Dermal Fillers

Still the gold standard for softening expression lines, refreshing tired eyes, or restoring facial volume where it's been lost.

Botox/Dysport/Daxxify: Smooths forehead lines, frown lines, crow’s feet, chin dimpling, and neck bands. We always customize dosing to preserve natural expression.

Dermal Fillers: Used to lift cheeks, restore volume to the midface, soften nasolabial folds, or define the lips and chin. At TAC, we take a “less is more” approach for subtle, harmonious results.

Also Offered:

• Sculptra for long-term collagen stimulation

• Radiesse for structural support and biostimulation

Downtime: Minimal to none. Bruising or swelling is possible but manageable.

2. CO2 Laser Skin Resurfacing

This is the treatment that truly resets your skin. We use fractional CO2 laser technology to improve texture, tone, and overall skin quality.

What it treats:

• Fine lines and wrinkles

• Scars (acne, surgical, traumatic)

• Rough texture and crepey skin

• Uneven tone and sun damage

• Moderate skin laxity
  

Why it works:CO2 uses ablative laser energy to vaporize damaged skin and trigger deep collagen regeneration. It’s powerful—and the results speak for themselves.

Downtime: Expect 5–7 days of social downtime, plus up to 2 weeks of visible healing. Long-term results continue improving over 3–6 months.

Ideal for: Skin prepped and ready to do the work. We’ll build a pre- and post-care plan for you.

3. PICO Laser Treatments (Pigment, Melasma, Redness)

PICO laser is your go-to if you're struggling with stubborn pigment, melasma, or redness that hasn't responded to other treatments.

What it does:Delivers ultra-short bursts of energy to shatter pigment without heat damage. Safe on all skin tones with minimal to no downtime.

What it treats:

• Melasma

• Sun spots

• PIH (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation)

• Vascular redness (mild rosacea, post-acne marks)

• Dull skin with uneven tone

Why it’s different:Unlike IPL or traditional lasers, PICO uses photoacoustic energy, not heat—so it’s much safer for darker skin tones or pigment-prone skin.

4. Microneedling (with Exosomes, Growth Factors, or Peel Layering)

Microneedling stimulates your skin’s natural ability to repair itself by creating controlled micro-injuries. At TAC, we enhance your treatment by adding exosomes, PDGF, or SIV Biome Serum for boosted results.

Great for:

• Acne scars

• Fine lines

• Enlarged pores

• Early laxity

• Overall skin dullness
  

What to expect:1–3 days of redness, tightness, and light flaking. Results build over 4–6 weeks as collagen and elastin increase.

Bonus: We include neck (always) and can layer in a Linder Health peel or LED therapy depending on your goals.

5. Chemical Peels

From gentle enzymatic exfoliation to medium-depth peels, this is one of the most efficient ways to refresh your skin, reduce pigment, and improve product penetration.

Offered at TAC:

• VI Peel Series (Purify, Precision Plus, etc.)

• Linder Health Peels (Spotless, Hero, Polite)

• Custom protocols layered with microneedling or light therapy

What they treat:

• Hyperpigmentation

• Acne and post-acne marks

• Surface texture and tone

• Dull, congested skin

Downtime: Peeling typically begins day 2 or 3 and resolves within a week. We’ll walk you through prep and post-care every step of the way.

How to Choose the Right MedSpa Treatment for You

Not sure what’s best? That’s where we come in. Every treatment plan at The Aesthetics Collective starts with a personalized consultation to assess your skin, facial structure, history, and goals. We’ll help you:

• Prioritize based on what will give you the most impact

• Time treatments around your life (events, travel, sun exposure)

• Build a realistic plan that fits your budget and schedule

Many of our patients start with one concern—like fine lines or pigment—and end up with a comprehensive glow-up that’s subtle but significant.

Skin Prep and Aftercare (We Keep It Simple + Effective)

To get the best results from your treatments, we support you with:

• Barrier-safe skincare (SkinBetter, GlyMed+, SIV, Byoma, Prequel)

• Step-by-step prep before CO2, peels, or microneedling

• Healing protocols post-laser or resurfacing

• SPF + antioxidant plans for maintenance and prevention

We don’t sell hype. We give you a plan that works—and we’re here for the long haul.
