NanoLaserPeel

Quick. Gentle. Effective.

NanoLaserPeel in Chicago, IL

Sometimes the best treatment is the one that delivers visible results without disrupting your week. NanoLaserPeel was designed for exactly that. At Therahaus Wellness Medspa in South Loop, Chicago, this gentle erbium laser resurfacing treatment is one of our most requested options for patients who want smoother, brighter skin with a recovery period that fits into a lunch break, not a vacation.

NanoLaserPeel uses a light erbium laser to precisely remove a thin, controlled layer of the skin's outermost surface, improving dullness, mild texture irregularities, fine lines, and enlarged pores. Because the treatment depth is so superficial, the skin heals quickly, with most patients experiencing only about 24 hours of visible redness before returning to their normal routine. NanoLaserPeel is frequently used as a maintenance treatment for patients who already have healthy skin and want to keep it that way, as well as an approachable starting point for those new to laser resurfacing.

The Treatment Process

How NanoLaserPeel Works

NanoLaserPeel uses an erbium laser calibrated to a very light setting, precisely removing only the thinnest outer layer of skin. Because erbium wavelengths are highly absorbed by water in the skin's cells, the laser is able to vaporize this superficial layer with minimal heat spread to the surrounding tissue. As the treated layer sheds over the following day, fresher, smoother skin is revealed almost immediately. While the depth of correction is lighter than a MicroLaserPeel, NanoLaserPeel still stimulates a mild renewal response in the skin, supporting brightness and texture improvement with each session.

Step 1: Consultation

Your provider assesses your skin concerns and confirms that NanoLaserPeel's lighter resurfacing depth is the right match for your goals and tolerance for downtime.

Step 2: Preparation

The skin is cleansed and prepared. Topical numbing may be applied depending on your provider's recommendation, and protective eyewear is provided.

Step 3: Laser Treatment

The erbium laser is passed across the treatment area at a light setting, removing a thin, controlled layer of skin. You may feel warmth or mild stinging during treatment. Sessions are quick, often taking 15 to 30 minutes.

Step 4: Same-Day Recovery

Redness is typically present for about 24 hours following treatment, with minimal to no visible peeling. Most patients return to their normal activities and makeup routine the very next day.

Supporting Your Results

NanoLaserPeel Aftercare: What to Know

Recovery from NanoLaserPeel is brief, with most patients experiencing mild redness for about 24 hours following treatment. Because the treated layer of skin is so superficial, visible peeling is minimal to none for most patients, and any normal skin renewal happens quickly and quietly.

Apply a gentle moisturizer and broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher the day of and following your treatment.
Keep your skincare routine simple for the first 24 hours, allowing the skin to settle before resuming actives.
Stay hydrated to support your skin's natural renewal process after treatment.
Schedule regular NanoLaserPeel sessions as part of an ongoing maintenance routine if recommended by your provider.
Don'ts
Do not apply retinoids, exfoliating acids, or other active skincare products for at least 24 to 48 hours post-treatment.

Avoid heat-based activities including saunas and steam rooms for 24 hours after treatment.
Do not pick or rub at any mild flaking that may occur, allowing it to resolve naturally on its own.

Got an amazing hydrofacial with Morgan and my face feels so clean. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. She made sure to care for my sensitive skin and make adjustments based on it.

I'm thrilled with my results and I can already see an improvement in my skin. I highly recommend this spa and cannot wait to come back!

Dina Andriopolous

What I loved most about Therahaus was that it had such a “family” atmosphere and it was very warm environment. I thought the services were very fairly priced (I received the Hydrafacial), and the location was more than convenient. It’s right off Lake Shore Drive and walkable to Ricobene’s! (IYKYK). Taking the wife next time so she can experience what I did. Will be back no doubt.

Ryne Haberkorn

I was nervous going into my first laser treatment, and the staff immediately made me feel comfortable. They were warm, patient, and explained everything so thoroughly. Definitely a one stop shop as they have all the newest treatments etc. Huge shoutout to Angie! She’s truly the best and made the entire experience so easy. They even offered snacks and a drink… honestly the relaxing day I didn’t know I needed. I’ll 100% be returning.

Kylie Apple

Had an amazing experience with the Therahus team! It was the first time I had IV therapy and can't reccomend it enough. Just what I needed post Bears 2026 season heartbreak :( Also, tried the hydrafacial - did not realize how much I needed it with the winter season. CAN NOT speak highly enoughabout the team. Everyone took great care of me - making me feel comfortable despite it being my first med spa experience. In addition, they were all so knowledgable about all the treatments and this is coming from a med student who just finished his skin block ;) will definitely be visiting in the near future to keep my skin glowing during this winter season!

Joseph Chavez

I had the best and most tailored experience EVER at Therahaus. I got the hydrafacial, IV drip, and lymphatic drainage massage, and it was the most perfect experience ever. Dr. Beltsos made me feel so comfortable and empowered, and I left glowing. I ended up getting the facial membership because it's such a bang for your buck, and I'm so excited to maintain this GLOW. Thank you Dr. Beltsos and team!!! I'm recommending to everyone!!!

Elaine Yoon

I don't have a single negative thing to say about Therahaus. I mean just wow! I haven’t been to this med spa before, so I was a little nervous about what to expect, but Dr. Beltsos and the entire staff were extremely friendly and knowledgeable and immediately put me at ease. They took the time to explain the procedures, the tools and machines they will use and how they work to the care routine afterwards, which made me feel very comfortable. The results were amazing. The location was also very convenient and easy to get to and lots of parking nearby, and the services were very reasonably priced. I’ll definitely be coming back and would highly recommend them.

Raj Mitra

I had an excellent experience at Therahaus Med Spa. The space is modern, calm, and thoughtfully designed, but more importantly, the care is genuinely clinical and professional, not sales-driven. The staff took the time to explain options clearly, answered questions directly, and never pushed unnecessary treatments. What stood out most was the balance between medical rigor and comfort. You feel like you are in capable hands, with practitioners who know what they are doing and take pride in doing it well. Everything from scheduling to follow-up was smooth and well organized. If you are looking for a med spa that prioritizes expertise, transparency, and results over hype, Therahaus is worth your time.

They took the time to answer my questions and checked in throughout my visit.The spa itself was very clean and well-maintained, which made the whole experience even more relaxing. Overall, I highly recommend Therahaus Wellness Spa if you’re looking for excellent service in a clean, peaceful setting. I’m very happy with my Botox results and will definitely be returning!

Demetrius Beasley

I’m genuinely blown away by this place. The fact that it’s owned and actively run by an MD already sets it apart from so many med spas where the physician isn’t closely involved. Dr. Beltsos was incredibly thorough, walking me through every step before and during my BBL and Halo treatments. I felt completely supported the whole way. And Justin, the manager, wasn’t just in the background, he was knowledgeable, engaged, and truly invested in my experience. Top-tier care from start to finish.
