Acne Scar Removal
Acne scars are a difficult reminder of our skin’s unfortunate past. These marks are left behind following an acne breakout. Acne pimples cause injury deep into our dermis, and as our skin heals collagen is left behind which can result in a scar. There is very little one can do to prevent acne scarring other than to attempt to control their active acne. There are new developments, however, which can treat acne scars and improve their texture.
The science of lasers has developed some very exciting devices which can improve acne scarring. Fractional lasers such as the Fraxel and the SmartSkin treatment can greatly improve skin texture and tone. Please call today to learn more about the latest treatments.

Best place in Chicago to get a microderm treatment - loved how wonderful my face felt and looked immediately after the treatment. In about a half hour I was ready to go out looking great!

Average Waiting Time
Dr. Jacob and her staff made this treatment a great experience. The laser treatment itself was done in a very professional manner. I honestly recommend Dr. Jacob and her staff for laser hair removal - I have never been so satisfied with the outcome and experience! Never a long wait at this doctor office.
