I’ve been going here for my Botox and I seriously could not be happier with my results. She is so knowledgeable, professional, and makes the entire experience feel comfortable and relaxing compared to other med spas. My Botox always looks natural, smooth, and never overdone. She takes the time to listen to exactly what I want and explains everything so well. You can tell she truly cares about her clients and takes pride in her work. I trust her completely with my face and would recommend her to anyone looking for amazing results!

With age my face was looking tired. Thanks to Alex who performed IPL treatment and microneedling my face looks smooth and glowing. She explained step my step what she was doing to my face in a very calming spa like voice. Recommending her to all my family and friends.

Treatment Focus

Lip Filler Augmentation
Fuller, more defined lips are a popular treatment, and for good reason. A well-placed lip filler can add volume, restore the definition that fades with age, improve symmetry, and give the lips a shape that photographs naturally and looks proportional to your face. At Express Med Spa, we use Revanesse Lips+, a hyaluronic acid filler specifically designed for lip augmentation. Every appointment is performed by a licensed nurse practitioner or registered nurse injector, and every result is planned around your specific lip anatomy and what you actually want, not a generic look. Whether you are completely new to lip filler or you have had it before and want a provider who takes it seriously, we want your result to look like a better version of your lips, not someone else's.
Lip Filler Augmentation
Belotero Dermal Filler
Belotero is a hyaluronic acid dermal filler built to sit smoothly in thin, mobile skin, which makes it the product our injectors reach for on fine lines and delicate areas rather than on heavy structural volume. Express Med Spa carries it at our Frankfort, La Grange, Shorewood, and Mount Greenwood clinics at $599 per syringe, or $349 for a half syringe. Every injection is placed by a licensed medical provider.

Radiesse Filler
Radiesse is the collagen stimulating dermal filler our nurse practitioner led team uses to restore facial volume, smooth deep folds, and support the jowl and jawline. Facial treatments are $699 per syringe, with a $379 Mini Radiesse half syringe option, at our Frankfort, La Grange, Shorewood, and Mount Greenwood clinics.

Microneedling
Microneedling, also called collagen induction therapy, uses fine, sterile needles to create controlled micro-channels in the skin, prompting your body to rebuild collagen and elastin. It is one of the most versatile ways to soften acne scars, smooth uneven texture, refine enlarged pores, and ease fine lines and wrinkles for natural-looking skin rejuvenation. At Express Med Spa, microneedling is performed by licensed medical providers across our Chicagoland locations using the professional CytoPen® device, with options to match your goals: standard microneedling for the face, neck, and body, Sublative radiofrequency microneedling for deeper remodeling and skin tightening, and enhancement add-ons like PRP and stem cell growth factor. Below you will find how each option works, what it treats, what it costs, and where to book microneedling near you.
Microneedling
Microneedling with PRP in Chicagoland
Microneedling with PRP pairs collagen induction therapy with platelet-rich plasma drawn from your own blood. A small sample is spun in a centrifuge to separate the plasma, and that plasma is then used as the glide on your skin while the CytoPen creates thousands of controlled micro-channels. Because the channels are open as the plasma passes over them, your own platelet growth factors reach the layer of skin where collagen is rebuilt instead of sitting on the surface. It is the enhancement most often chosen for atrophic acne scars, uneven texture and early crepiness, and it is the treatment most people mean when they search for a vampire facial. At Express Med Spa it is a $195 add-on to any microneedling service, performed by licensed medical providers at our Frankfort, La Grange, Shorewood, and Mount Greenwood clinics.

RF Skin Tightening in Chicagoland
RF skin tightening heats the deeper layer of the skin to contract existing collagen and prompt your body to build more, firming the jawline, neck, and body without surgery. Our nurse-practitioner-led team performs it with the Sublime applicator on the Candela elos Plus at our Frankfort, La Grange, Shorewood, and Mount Greenwood clinics.

B12 Injections
B12 injections boost energy and metabolism. Each B12 shot delivers a concentrated dose of vitamin B12 to help your body convert food into energy, support red blood cell production, and ease fatigue. At Express Med Spa, B12 injections are administered by licensed nurse practitioners across our Chicagoland locations in a quick, in-office visit. Here you will find how B12 shots work, what they cost, and where to book near you.

GLP-1 Medical Weight Loss Program
Losing weight is not just about willpower. Hormonal changes, metabolism shifts, and years of dieting can make traditional methods feel impossible. Our GLP-1 Medical Weight Loss Program is a nurse practitioner-led, medically supervised program that works with your body's own hunger and satiety signals to help you lose weight in a way that is safe, structured, and sustainable. Every patient starts with a health assessment and lab work, and you will have ongoing clinical support throughout your journey.
