I started off my January with self care time at @Spaderma_medspa. The family-owned med spa has multiple locations. I went to check out their signature Hydrafacial treatment at the West Loop location.

The Hydrafacial Deeply cleanse, extract, and hydrate the skin through super serums filled with antioxidants, peptides, and hyaluronic acid. Your skin will feel and look clean and fresh. Definitely treat yourself!
