Back-To-School Confidence Comes With Great Skin

Getting your student ready for back-to-school success goes beyond new supplies and outfits. With senior pictures, Friday Night Lights, and Homecoming just around the corner, your teen’s confidence often ties directly to how their skin looks. To help them feel their best every step of the way, start with the skincare pros at Midwest DERMaesthetics—the med spa that’s all about getting results, right inside Midwest Dermatology.

Here’s the thing—many teens think med spa treatments are just for adults worried about wrinkles. But that’s not the case. Even the youngest teens can see major benefits from treatments like the Clarifying HydraFacial. The latest trends show that skincare procedures, especially when done by a skilled aesthetician, are perfect for teen skin. More and more teens—both guys and girls—are finding out how much better they feel when their skin is clear and healthy. At Midwest DERMaesthetics, we offer skincare options designed to boost both skin health and confidence.

Skin Care Advice

With all the noise on TikTok and influencer stories, it’s tough to figure out what skincare actually works for your teen. We get it—celebrities like Hailey Bieber are passionate about the skincare lines they represent, and sometimes we even agree with them. But seriously, let a professional guide your teen through the right skincare, based on advice from dermatologists who actually know what’s best. Start by booking your teen for a Skin Care Consult at Midwest Dermatology. Our licensed aestheticians will review their skincare routine and recommend professional-grade products if needed. And the best part? All Skin Care Consults are free when you purchase a product or treat your teen to one of our amazing spa services that help achieve clear skin. Even the girl behind the cosmetic counter will be impressed!

Treatments That Work

Your first treatment includes a consult where we determine patient needs.    We’ll start with a discussion of history, lifestyles and desired outcomes, followed by a mutually agreeable treatment plan.  Options include:

• Clarifying HydraFacial – HydraFacial is like a refreshing, deep clean for your skin. It’s a professional-grade treatment that not only resurfaces but also hydrates your skin in four simple steps: cleanse, exfoliate, extract, and hydrate. Using the HydraPeel tip—a cool pen-like device—we infuse serums directly into your pores, removing dead skin cells and clearing out impurities. The result? Skin that’s deeply cleansed, fully hydrated, and totally refreshed. Our Clarifying HydraFacial steps it up with extended extractions and Blue LED Light Therapy and if you need a little extra love, we can add the HydraFacial lip or eye perk!
• Acne Peel – Peels are game-changers for your skin, but only experts should be applying them. Our licensed aestheticians at Midwest DERMaesthetics carefully choose the right peel to exfoliate, boost cell turnover, and promote collagen—leading to clearer skin. A light acne peel is a great start to the lifelong benefits of peels, tackling breakouts, discoloration, and fine lines. Talk to our team to find the perfect peel for you.
• Extractions and Deep Pore Cleanse – Need blackheads or papules removed? Book an extraction appointment for gentle removal or go for the Deep Pore Cleanse and Extraction to add a purifying cleanse, light massage, and targeted mask. It feels like a facial but works like a corrective treatment, recommended by our physicians for moderate acne. We also offer this for back treatments!
• Blue Light Treatment – That pesky acne-causing bacteria, p. Acnes, doesn’t stand a chance against blue light. This treatment targets and kills the bacteria in your skin’s oil glands. You can add Blue Light Treatment to any of our services or book it as a stand-alone.
