This North Shore med spa and wellness center takes “it’s what's on the inside that counts” literally by focusing on internal health as well as external treatments for a radiant body and skin.

Highland Park’s FreshSkin Medical Spa & Wellness Center is here to help with all your wellness needs, from skin regimens to customized wellness plans and their newest body contouring option, PHYSIQ.

As the first practice in the Midwest to offer PHYSIQ and one of the first five in the whole country, this treatment should definitely be on your wishlist. In just 30 minutes, four applicators work simultaneously to contour your body, reduce fat and stimulate muscles for an easy, downtime-free body treatment. PHYSIQ is the latest, most advanced body technology on the market.

Aside from PHYSIQ, FreshSkin has been offering top of the line treatments since opening in 2011. Founder and Medical Director, Dr. Josie L. Tenore, MD, curated a team of well-trained professionals in aesthetics and wellness, in addition to having over 25 years of personal experience as a physician.

“I've had an interest in health and beauty since I was 5 years old,” says Dr. Josie. “After training in Canada and the United States and practicing in family medicine, I realized there was a missing link. There were med spas popping up for aesthetic treatments, but no one was focused on internal health. Both internal and external health are vital for optimal beauty and well-being.”

The practice's ethos, “Beauty begins with Beautiful Skin and Beautiful Skin begins with a Healthy Body™”, is truly manifested in their work. While serving the North Shore community for the past eight years, they have dedicated their time to addressing each patient’s internal and external health so men and women can look and feel their best. The Medical Spa assists clients with all their skincare needs and provides advanced protocols and exclusive, cutting-edge technology for wrinkles, skin tightening, skin rejuvenation and healing. The Wellness Center, on the other hand, is a one-stop-shop for finding the best health plan for you. Consultations incorporate comprehensive blood panels and analysis of one’s medical history to assess hormones, metabolism, genetics, nutrient deficiencies, and food sensitivities, and develop personalized nutrition and exercise programs that are realistic for each patient.

FreshSkin perfectly embodies personalized medicine. Dr. Josie is proud of creating a practice with her philosophy that “combines integrative, functional and aesthetic medicine under one roof while continually seeking and developing new treatments and technologies.”
