How It Works
Your Better Reset Men’s Facial begins with a double cleanse and steam to soften facial hair, dissolve oil, and prepare pores for a thorough yet non-abrasive exfoliation. Gentle extractions clear blackheads and congestion, followed by a treatment step such as an enzyme or light peel and a targeted K-Beauty–inspired sheet or gel mask for oil control, hydration, or post-shave calming. A focused neck and facial massage boosts circulation and eases tension, and the facial finishes with serums, moisturizer, and SPF chosen for men’s thicker, often oilier skin and life in the Chicago environment.
What It Targets
Our specialized facial for men targets:
- Clogged pores, blackheads, and excess oil common in men’s thicker, more sebaceous skin.
- Post-shave irritation, razor burn, and ingrown hairs along the beard area and neck.
- Dullness, uneven texture, and “tired” skin from stress, workouts, and city pollution.
- Fine lines and early aging from sun exposure, squinting at screens, and inconsistent skincare.
- Dehydration and dry patches that coexist with oiliness, especially on the cheeks and forehead.
Benefits
Give your skin the freshness it deserves:
- Deep cleansing and exfoliation that unclog pores, refine texture, and reduce shine without stripping the skin.
- Calms redness from shaving, helps prevent ingrown hairs, and makes future shaves smoother and more comfortable.
- Hydrates and strengthens the skin barrier, leaving skin soft, balanced, and resilient rather than tight or greasy.
- Targets early aging with techniques and ingredients that support collagen, tone, and elasticity.
- Delivers a visible “reset” and glow in a single visit—ideal before events, photos, or key meetings.
- Provides real relaxation and stress relief with massage and guided care, supporting both appearance and mental recharge.

Past Client Experiences
"I have noticed a significant difference in the overall appearance of my skin and my friends and family have as well. I am excited to come in for follow-up sessions!"
"I came in 2 weeks ago for their Green Peel, which is a natural facial peel formulated with algae. It was my first time doing a skin peel so I was a bit anxious, but my tech Priscilla did a great job of informing me about the treatment throughout the process and about the aftercare."
"Overall - phenomenal experience. Staff from the estheticians to the front desk were so knowledgeable and kind."
"I got the Personalized Facial with a complimentary skin consultation with Xia. And it was so beyond amazing. This was by far one of the most intensive facials that I have ever gotten and I loved how much attention to detail Xia had throughout our entire session."

"Outstanding service and spa."
"The Glass Facial was amazing. They specialize in Korean Beauty and only use products gentle for your skin unlike many Western treatments. My skin looks great even days later. I still have a glow and glass look with just simple skin care and moisturizing like I normally do. I definitely recommend this salon and suggest you try the K-Beauty services!"

"It has been a month since I got Rejuran, and at least six people have complimented my skin since then! Izzy is amazing, her technique is professional and surprisingly painless, but what impressed me the most is her sense of aesthetics. She really listened to what I wanted, communicated actively with me, and confirmed everything carefully until I felt completely comfortable."
