About Skinovatio Medical Spa, Lincoln ParkIt all adds up.

Skin changes. Faces change. Goals change. Good aesthetic care pays attention to all of it.

How we care for you

We get to know you first.

Everyone who comes through our door on Lincoln Ave brings a different story: what you’ve noticed, what you’d love to change, what you’ve tried before, and how much downtime fits your week. We start by listening, look at your skin together by the window, and shape your plan around you.

  1. 01

    Time that’s yours

    Your consult is free and takes about 30 minutes. It’s your time to ask anything, show us photos and talk through what you’ve had done before.

  2. 02

    Familiar faces

    Our Lincoln Park team gets to know every patient, so the people you meet at your consult know your plan when you come back.

  3. 03

    Comfort at every step

    Before we start, we’ll walk you through what you’ll feel, and we check in with you along the way. You can always ask us to pause.

  4. 04

    Care after your visit

    Questions once you’re home? Call us at (773) 799-8278. At your two-week check, we look again together and adjust anything that needs it.

01 · See

You noticed something first.

Maybe it’s your skin. Maybe it’s a line that suddenly sticks around. Maybe something just looks different than it did a year ago.

That’s usually where the conversation starts, and it’s the same conversation whether you’ve never had a treatment or you’ve had ten.

02 · Understand

Look a little closer.

What you notice first isn’t always the only thing going on. Skin quality, movement, volume, collagen, hormones, lifestyle and treatment history all change what you see. A good plan starts by working out which of those pieces are doing the most.

03 · Treat

Treat the right layer.

Different treatments do different jobs. Botox works on muscle movement. Filler adds or restores volume. IPL goes after pigment and redness. Microneedling and RF work deeper in the skin. A facial handles something else entirely. Knowing the difference is most of the job.

04 · Build

Some results happen in days. Others take months.

Skin changes gradually. Collagen builds gradually. How often you come back depends on what you’re treating and where you are in it. And the plan can change too.

How often common treatments repeat over 18 months HydraFacial every 4 to 6 weeks. Botox about every 3 to 4 months, with a check at two weeks. Filler lasts 9 to 18 months. Laser hair removal is about six visits 4 to 8 weeks apart. PRF under the eyes is three sessions 4 to 6 weeks apart.

Products matter. Technology matters. The person using them matters more.

Treatment room at Skinovatio Lincoln Park with HydraFacial equipment and a treatment bed

Here’s what that actually looks like, from the first visit on.

What to expect
  1. 1

    The consult

    A look at your skin in daylight, by the window. A few questions about what’s changed and what you want. There’s no obligation to book a treatment the same day.

  2. 2

    A plan, not just an appointment

    Your provider names the product or treatment before it’s opened and walks you through why. You leave with a written plan, not a verbal promise.

  3. 3

    A conservative first dose

    Your first treatment is intentionally measured. You can always add more later. You can’t easily take away.

  4. 4

    A real follow-up

    We look again at two weeks and adjust if anything needs it. Every plan is also reviewed by our medical director, not just the provider who saw you.

Weight loss

Led by our nurse practitioners

Medical weight loss run the same way as everything else here: a plan on paper, a provider checking in, and adjustments instead of guesswork.
