Facials in Portage Park: Compare Types, Timing & Costs for eyelash extension lashes

By Beverly BeautySkincare and spa | July 21, 2026

A lot of people tell us they love that we talk you through step by step, check in if anything is bothering you, and keep the space cozy with soothing music (yes, we’ll even offer a blanket if you get cold). Facials are professional skin treatments that cleanse, exfoliate, and treat target concerns like sun damage, acne, or aging. Pick a facial by your main skin goal, think hydrating and antioxidant care in July, resurfacing for texture when your skin isn’t sun-stressed, and maintenance every 4–8 weeks to keep results consistent. If you’re in Portage Park on Chicago’s Northwest Side near the Irving Park corridor and the Central Avenue commercial strip, we’ll help you compare options and choose the one that actually fits your skin and your schedule.

We’re right here in Chicago, and we also see neighbors coming in from Elmwood Park, River Grove, Franklin Park, Schiller Park, Norridge, and Melrose Park when they want skin that looks cleaner, calmer, and brighter without guessing their way through products at home.

What brings people in for facials on Chicago’s Northwest Side

Most people aren’t coming in because they want “a facial.” They’re coming in because their pores feel clogged, they’re dealing with hyperpigmentation, their skin gets reactive easily, or makeup just won’t sit right anymore.

And busy schedules matter. We plan a lot of treatments to fit a 30–60 minute window, so commuters and families can still get real results without carving out a whole day. If you want the faster version, we’ll point you toward a simpler, focused session. If your skin needs more, we’ll slow down and do it properly.

Facial menu in Portage Park, and who each one is best for

Exapeel Liquid Laser +Exoxomas

We pair Exapeel Liquid Laser with an exosome infusion to go after fine lines, sun damage, and acne scarring, while keeping downtime minimal.

Best for: uneven tone and texture when you want visible refresh without hiding out for a week.

PDR +Exoxomas DNA Microneedling

This is collagen induction therapy. We create tiny micro-channels, then infuse exosomes to support smoother texture and firmer-looking skin over time.

Best for: acne scarring, fine lines, and texture that needs a plan, not a one-time quick fix.

Microcurrent face lifting

Think of this as a “facial workout.” We use low-level currents to stimulate facial muscles, soften the look of fine lines, and bring tone back.

Best for: events, photos, or days you want that lifted look without anything invasive. We can add it onto many facial sessions.

Returning Clients

This is where we build momentum. We look at how your skin’s been reacting since the last visit, then adjust the focus so your results stay consistent.

Best for: maintenance every 4–8 weeks and anyone who wants steady improvement instead of random treatments.

ACNE DEEP CLEANCING FACIAL

We focus on clearing congestion, unclogging pores, and calming inflamed skin, so you’re not stuck in the cycle of new breakouts.

Best for: acne-prone skin, blackheads, and anyone prepping their skin for a peel plan.

Delux PreNatal facial Glow

Expecting and suddenly sensitive? We keep it gentle and pregnancy-safe, focusing on hydration, calming, and that healthy glow without aggressive actives.

Best for: dryness, sensitivity, and moms-to-be who want to relax and leave looking rested.

Deep poor Skin cleansing Facial

If your skin feels heavy and dull, we go deep on cleansing and detoxing, then reset with the right mask and finishing products.

Best for: congestion and that “I need my face to feel clean again” moment.

Signature Korean BB Glow Facial

This one includes dermaplaning and microdermabrasion for a smoother surface and brighter look. It’s a great “reset” when your skin looks tired.

Best for: dullness, rough texture, and anyone chasing a clean, luminous finish.

Gentlemans facials

We focus on what men actually deal with, razor burn, ingrowns, clogged pores, and dryness, without overcomplicating it.

Best for: beard-area irritation, oily skin, and a clean, refreshed look that still feels natural.

Anti Aging Facial

We target fine lines and “tired skin” with steps that support firmness and a smoother-looking surface, then finish with hydration so you’re not leaving tight.

Best for: early signs of aging, dryness, and anyone who wants glow without irritation.

Hydrodermabrasion

We exfoliate away that dull outer layer while feeding hydration back in. It’s one of our go-to options when Chicago weather has your skin confused.

Best for: dehydration, rough patches, and a smoother look without aggressive peeling.

Dimond Microdermabrasion

We use a diamond-tip tool to gently resurface and help with uneven tone, light scarring, and sun damage. It’s controlled, not harsh.

Best for: texture, discoloration, and a smoother makeup application.

European Basic Facial

A classic, about-an-hour facial for the face and neck. We cleanse, gently exfoliate, and balance, then send you out feeling clean and reset.

Best for: first-timers, maintenance, and anyone who wants a solid baseline before trying stronger treatments.

Oxygen infusion facial

We use pressurized oxygen to push serum into the skin, which is great when you want hydration and radiance without a “just exfoliated” feeling.

Best for: dullness, dehydration, and pre-event glow when you want to look fresh fast.

Timing and cost (realistic range): Most facial appointments fall into the 25–90 minute range depending on how much we’re doing. Pricing varies by service level and add-ons, and we’ll tell you the number before we start, especially if we’re stepping up into advanced options like microneedling or peel-style resurfacing.

Results we see a lot: cleaner pores, calm skin, and that “my face is back” glow

We love the dramatic moments, but the most consistent wins are simple. People come in feeling congested and leave feeling clean, supple, and comfortable. We’ve had clients surprised that sensitive skin didn’t burn with product, and they walked out with no redness or irritation.

Deep cleansing work is a big one here. We’ve had people come in specifically for milia removal, including larger milia, and leave with it completely gone and skin looking refreshed and clear. And for acne, we often hear about progress after a few visits, not just one, because skin usually needs consistency and the right home routine in between.

“My skin was so supple and clean the glow was AMAZING.”

Because we’re in Chicago, we also plan around the seasons. July humidity can still leave you dehydrated under the surface, so hydrating and antioxidant-focused facials tend to make more sense than aggressive resurfacing right after heavy sun exposure. Winter is the opposite. Skin gets tight and flaky fast, and richer hydration plus gentle exfoliation usually keeps things more balanced.

When you sit down, here’s how we run your facial (no guessing)

We start by looking at your skin up close, and we talk through what you’re noticing at home. If you’re sensitive, we take that seriously and we pick steps and products that won’t leave you red and angry.

Then we cleanse, exfoliate, and do targeted work based on what you came in for, congestion, acne, hyperpigmentation, texture, or just a reset. If extractions make sense, we’ll do them carefully and check in with you. After that, we mask, finish with hydration, and go over what to do next so your skin stays happy.

Quick prep tip: If you’re planning a peel or stronger exfoliation, pause heavy retinoids for a few days beforehand (we’ll tell you what makes sense for your routine). And after exfoliation, SPF is non-negotiable, especially in summer.

Facial FAQs (plus lash terms we get asked about)

How often should I get a facial?

Most people do best on a 4–8 week rhythm. Acne and congestion often do better closer together at the start, then we space it out once your skin calms down and you’ve got homecare that works.

What facial is best after sun exposure?

Go gentle. After heavy sun, we usually lean hydrating and antioxidant-focused, think oxygen infusion facial or hydrodermabrasion style hydration, and we hold off on aggressive resurfacing until your skin feels settled again.

How long does a facial appointment typically take?

Plan for 25–90 minutes depending on the facial. A deep cleanse with extractions takes longer than a quick refresh, and advanced treatments like microneedling also need more time.

Can facials help with acne-prone skin?

Yes, especially when we’re consistent. Deep cleansing facials help clear congestion and calm inflammation, and we’ll also guide you on what to do at home so you’re not undoing the work between visits.

Should I avoid getting a facial right before a big event?

If you’re doing extractions or stronger exfoliation, don’t do it the day before. Give yourself about a week. For a “safe glow, ” choose a gentler, hydrating facial closer to the event.

What does “lashes volume set” mean?

A volume set is a lash extension look that creates more fullness by applying lightweight fans rather than a single extension per natural lash. If you’re asking about this while you’re also working on skincare, let us know your makeup habits and the look you like, so your lash and skin choices don’t fight each other.

Are “volume set lashes” the same thing?

Usually, yes. People say “volume set lashes” and “lashes volume set” interchangeably. The important part is choosing the right amount of volume for your eye shape and how natural you want it to look.

What is an eyelash extension fill?

A fill is your maintenance appointment to replace extensions that have shed with your natural lash cycle. Keeping up with fills is what makes extensions look even and fresh instead of sparse.

What are eyelash extension volume lashes?

That phrase usually means the same thing as a volume set. It’s a fuller lash extension style using lightweight fans to build density without feeling heavy when it’s done correctly.
