“I absolutely love this place! This was my first time doing Botox and they were so good. I saw Stephanie the first time and Steph the second time. They were honest and thorough at explaining the procedures. Very friendly and helpful. The place is very clean. I also got my daughter's ear piercing here and Steph was so good with her. I highly recommend this place to everyone. I am a forever client here now!”

“I wish google allowed video reviews because I can't even begin to put into words how amazing my experience has been with Express Med Spa. I had connected with Express Med Spa through their “Be Well Package” in hopes of losing weight due to a recent dive in my annual blood work with my GP. Not only have I lost 25lbs since September (without a prescription) but the B12 and Vitamin D injections have allowed me to be migraine free for months (something that has not happened in over 20 years). I feel great and have seen a significant shift in my mood. I highly recommend Express Med Spa!!!**My daughter also had her ears pierced at Express Med Spa – they did a great job calming her nerves and she left so happy!!!”

“Loved their ear piercing with Elsa event! My seven year old has been wanting to get her ears pierced for months but was so scared. But it was well worth the wait! Stefanie was patient with her and did an amazing job! Not only was Elsa there as a distraction but they even had a cute hot chocolate bar and goodies for the kids. So happy we went to express med spa for my little girls ear piercing! Now I just need to get back there to do something for myself 😊”

FAQ

Where is the safest place to get ears pierced?

A licensed medical spa. We use sterile, single‑use instruments and medical‑grade jewelry in a clinician‑supervised setting.

How do you ensure proper healing after an ear piercing?

How do you ensure proper healing after an ear piercing?
Proper healing is crucial for newly pierced ears, and our professional aftercare protocol is designed for optimal results. We provide a comprehensive aftercare kit and detailed instructions for the 6-8 week healing period. This includes:

✓ Medical-grade cleaning solution
✓ Proper cleaning techniques
✓ Signs of normal healing vs. potential complications
✓ When to rotate jewelry
✓ Activity restrictions during healing
✓ Follow-up care availability

What should I expect during a professional ear piercing procedure?

Our medical-grade piercing process is quick, precise, and virtually painless. We begin with a thorough consultation to discuss placement options and jewelry selection. The area is carefully marked and cleaned, and we use a specialized piercing system that's gentler than traditional piercing guns. The entire procedure takes about 15-20 minutes, including the consultation and aftercare instructions. Many clients report feeling only a brief pinch during the actual piercing, which takes just seconds per ear.

What type of ear piercing jewelry do you offer?

We exclusively use medical-grade titanium earrings designed specifically for new piercings.

Is it better to get ears pierced with a gun or needle?

At Express Med Spa, we exclusively use professional piercing instruments rather than traditional piercing guns because they're significantly safer and more precise. Unlike piercing guns, which can cause tissue trauma and cannot be properly sterilized, our single-use medical-grade piercing systems use sterile designed for optimal healing. Professional piercing instruments allow our licensed practitioners to create clean, precise piercings while minimizing discomfort and reducing the risk of complications.

✓ Proper sterilization possible
✓ Less tissue trauma
✓ More precise placement
✓ Better healing outcomes
✓ Reduced pain and swelling
✓ Lower infection risk

Why is a medical spa the safest place to get your ears pierced?

A professional medical spa is the safest choice for ear piercing because they combine clinical expertise with sterile medical environments. At Express Med Spa, licensed medical professionals perform piercings using surgical-grade equipment and sterile techniques. Unlike retail piercers, we offer hospital-grade sterilization, medical-quality titanium jewelry, and professional aftercare support. Our four Chicagoland locations maintain strict healthcare protocols and infection prevention standards, ensuring your piercing is performed safely by certified practitioners in a controlled medical setting.
✓ Licensed medical staff
✓ Sterile medical environment
✓ Surgical-grade equipment
✓ Professional aftercare
✓ Emergency medical support
✓ Infection prevention protocols

What age requirements exist for professional ear piercing services?

At Express Med Spa, we welcome clients from 6 months and older for ear piercing services. Our medical professionals are specially trained in pediatric ear piercing, making us a trusted choice for children's first ear piercing. We create a calm, child-friendly environment and take extra time to ensure young clients feel comfortable and secure. Parents appreciate our medical expertise and gentle approach, especially for infant ear piercing and young children's first piercing experience.

How long does healing take?

Most lobes: 6–8 weeks. Cartilage may take longer. We’ll send you home with written aftercare and check‑in options.
