SKINCARE BY SARATH

The business has two locations: a second-floor space at 311 South 2nd Street in St. Charles, which has no elevator access, and a part-time space at 1240 Iroquois Avenue, Suite 100, in Naperville. Some St. Charles services are listed at a yellow house across from the Whole Foods store at the same address.

The practice treats skincare as a matter of self-care, balance and confidence, with each treatment adjusted to the client. Treatments are described as calm and spa-like. Clients in Naperville check in by text on arrival and wait in the waiting area. Cancellations or reschedules need at least 24 hours' notice; same-day cancellations are charged 50% of the service and are not refunded or credited. Cash, debit, credit and Spa Finder gift cards are accepted, and gift certificates are available.

Procell Therapy is the business's central offering. Procell Microchanneling is a noninvasive treatment that uses a patented device to make controlled vertical microchannels in the skin through a stamping motion, so serums can penetrate more deeply. The business says it addresses fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars and uneven texture, and calls it its most transformative service. According to the blog, skin typically heals within 60 to 90 minutes. Procell serums use recombinant growth factors and DNA repair enzymes in a formula updated on April 1, 2025. Peels are not performed on first-time clients, who are asked to book the signature facial first. Clients should avoid actives, retinols and prescribed topicals for 7 to 10 days before and after Procell Therapy.

Other offerings include the Nano Infusion Facial, a 60-minute, no-needle, no-downtime treatment, and the Teen Facial, a 60-minute visit for teenagers with clogged pores, acne and breakouts, with one parent required for clients under age. Facials also include 60-, 75- and 90-minute options, with the 90-minute facial, called The Works, offering add-ons such as chemical exfoliation, microdermabrasion, skin tightening and LED therapy. The business also publishes skincare articles on its blog, several by Sarath Rodas, covering topics like sun damage, hydration and skin purging. Waiting periods apply after fillers, Botox, laser, microdermabrasion or chemical peels before a facial.
