Targeting Skin From the Inside Out

Exion® RF microneedling combines the efficacy of traditional microneedling with the impactful effects of radiofrequency (RF) energy to enhance your skin’s health and appearance. The device uses ultra-fine needles to create tiny, controlled injuries in your skin’s layers. This stimulates your skin’s healing process. Simultaneously, it emits RF energy to heat your tissue, encouraging the production of collagen and elastin.

Together, the two approaches help improve texture, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and tighten your skin. They help reshape and remodel its underlying structure, leading to more significant and longer-lasting enhancements. The combination of techniques not only addresses surface concerns but also targets the layers deep within your skin for total rejuvenation.

The EXION RF Microneedling Experience

  • Consultation: We’ll start your microneedling journey with a consultation to examine your skin and discuss your goals. RF Microneedling can be applied to your Face, Neck and various body parts. During your consultation we’ll map out a personalized treatment plan.
  • Treatment: During your treatment, a topical numbing cream is applied to minimize any discomfort during the procedure, allowing for a more pleasant experience. Your Lume technician will use the EXION RF device on your target treatment area. The treatment typically lasts about 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the area being treated. You may experience some redness, mild swelling, or sensitivity, similar to a mild sunburn. These effects usually subside within a few hours to a couple of days.
  • Results: Results typically begin to appear within a few weeks as the skin heals and collagen production increases, with optimal improvements visible around 3 to 6 months after the treatment as new skin regenerates. Depending on your skin concerns, multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve the best results.

The Science Behind RF Microneedling

Micro Injuries

The EXION RF microneedling device features fine needles that create micro-injuries. As the skin heals from these micro-injuries, it undergoes a remodeling process that improves skin texture, firmness, and elasticity.

Radiofrequency (Rf) Technology

The RF component of EXION microneedling delivers thermal energy to the deeper layers of the skin (dermis) while simultaneously creating micro-injuries. This dual action enhances the treatment's effects.

Collagen + Elastin Production

The heat generated by the RF energy further stimulates collagen production and tightens the skin, resulting in more effective skin rejuvenation and tightening than traditional microneedling alone.

Congratulations Lume on assembling such a fantastic team of nurses and aestheticians! I saw Nichole and had the Champions Drip IV. She was incredibly knowledgeable and made sure I got everything that I needed. She made sure I was very comfortable and I feel absolutely great afterwards! My wife saw Sharon for the Hydro-facial and her skin is absolutely glowing. Yes, we made a date out of it! Hint, guys, she doesn't want chocolate or roses she wants glowing skin and self-care! And Lume is the perfect place for that and more.

I’ve been doing Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy at Lume Wellness, and my experience has been genuinely excellent. From the moment I walked in, the space felt very clean, calming, and very well-maintained. The environment is professional yet welcoming, which immediately made me feel comfortable.

The nurse are incredibly professional, friendly and knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the entire process clearly before my first session, which really helped ease any concerns I had. Throughout each session, they were attentive and made sure I was comfortable. I never felt rushed, and they were always ready to answer any questions.

I highly recommend Lume Wellness to anyone considering Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy. The combination of professional care, quality facilities, and a supportive team makes it a place I trust and will continue to visit.

Very highly recommended wellness place in Chicago..

The space is absolutely beautiful, spotless, and calming. You immediately feel relaxed the moment you walk in.

But what really makes this place special is the staff. They are not just knowledgeable and professional — they are warm, welcoming, and feel like family. Every visit feels personal and intentional. They genuinely care about your wellness journey.

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Lume. I came here for hyperbaric therapy during a very stressful stage of my reconstruction surgery recovery, and everything about this place exceeded my expectations. The staff is incredibly knowledgeable, but what stood out to me even more was how genuinely caring and patient they are. They never rush you, they explain everything clearly, and they make sure you feel safe and comfortable from the moment you walk in.

The facility itself is spotless, very clean, smells good, modern, and truly calming — it feels much more peaceful and high-end compared to other centers I’ve tried. Every session helped me not just physically but mentally as well. I always walked out feeling lighter, clearer, and honestly a little more hopeful.

I’m truly grateful I found them, I noticed real improvements in my recovery after my sessions and I would 100% recommend Lume to anyone considering hyperbaric therapy in Chicago.L

Wonderful experience on my first visit! I went in knowing that I needed self care but not sure exactly which service to choose. Nichole was incredibly knowledgeable and helped me choose an IV that checked all my boxes. She made sure that I was comfortable and that my visit was exactly what I needed.

Lume is a beautiful, welcoming, impeccably clean and very zen environment. I felt very cared for and I look forward to future appointments!

I’ve been coming to Lume for over a year now, and my experience is always wonderful. The space is clean, modern, and incredibly calming. The entire staff is knowledgeable and caring. They truly listen to my health goals and concerns every time I visit. I was feeling a little dehydrated

​I recently had an IV drip with a glutathione add-on, and Allie took care of me. I have small veins, and IVs can often be a challenge, but Allie was absolute magic! She was so professional and made the entire process quick and comfortable. If you’re nervous about needles or have difficult veins, she’s the best. Highly recommend Lume!

Lume Wellness is truly a gem in Chicago. From the moment you walk in, the space feels calm, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed—an immediate sense of ease that sets the tone for the entire experience.

The staff are incredibly kind, attentive, and knowledgeable. You can tell they genuinely care about their clients and take the time to listen, explain, and tailor treatments to individual needs rather than offering a one-size-fits-all approach. Everything feels intentional, professional, and grounded in real expertise.

What really stands out about Lume is their holistic approach to wellness. They blend science, care, and compassion in a way that feels both elevated and deeply human. I never felt rushed, pressured, or overlooked—only supported and well cared for.

If you’re looking for a wellness space that prioritizes both results and the client experience, Lume Wellness is absolutely worth it. I can’t recommend them highly enough and will definitely be returning.

Lume Wellness is truly exceptional! The entire staff are incredibly knowledgeable and wonderfully personable, always taking the time to explain each treatment. The facility is spotless and calming and their membership deals are hard to beat (trust me, I’ve done the research).

After struggling with gut issues and inflammation for most of my life, I finally found relief through Lume’s range of services. Their full-body cryotherapy is easy to use and unbelievably refreshing, and the IV therapy provides noticeable and lasting wellness benefits. I feel like myself again and I recommend them to everyone!

Lume is the perfect spot to get away from all the noise of the City and just be fully be present with yourself and feel relaxed! It is so clean and the staff is extremely friendly and welcoming too. I’ve done multiple services here -red light therapy, a massage, infrared sauna, as well as a facial and even IVs. You have to try out as many services as possible to find your favorites, but you’ll probably end up loving them all like me!!

My experience at Lume was exceptional. The staff is very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. The hyperbaric has been very beneficial and I would highly recommend it for anyone with injuries and trying to reduce inflammation. I also had the IVs and vitamin injections and both were very beneficial and I felt the benefits immediately after. I’m looking forward to trying many more of their services.

Frequently Asked Questions Microneedling With Radio Frequency

Who Is the Ideal Candidate?

If you’re looking to address uneven texture, common signs of aging, or loose skin, microneedling in Chicago can be a great treatment option. It works best for individuals with mild-to-moderate skin concerns seeking a noninvasive solution to improve their skin. The ideal candidate is in good health and prepared to engage in the recommended treatment regimen to optimize and prolong their results. It’s important to note that we may not be able to treat skin with active infections or other severe conditions. These factors can affect your overall results and prevent us from safely providing you with treatment.

What Can I Expect?

During your consultation, we will give you tips and instructions to prepare your skin for treatment. This often includes avoiding exfoliants, retinol, and prolonged sun exposure. Your Lume provider will provide more personalized details based on your unique skin concerns and goals. As we begin your microneedling in Chicago you will feel the device working gently. Guests often describe this as a warm, tingling feeling. We also apply a topical numbing cream before starting to help increase your comfort. If you’re concerned about the process or have any questions, don’t worry! We guide you through each step and ensure you’re relaxed and informed throughout your RF microneedling experience.

What Are the Additional Benefits?

One of our favorite benefits of RF microneedling in Chicago is that it requires minimal downtime. You can resume your normal activities immediately after treatment. However, we recommend staying hydrated and being gentle with your skin to promote the best healing and results. Besides this, you can enjoy your results in the coming weeks!

Microneedling vs RF Microneedling

Microneedling

Microneedling uses tiny needles to create microchannels within the skin. It stimulates collagen production and encourages your skin to rid itself of imperfections such as fine lines, wrinkles, and superficial scars.

RF Microneedling

RF Microneedling also uses tiny needles but delivers radiofrequency energy into deeper layers of your skin. It can significantly reduce fine lines, wrinkles, and scars while also heating the dermis to tighten your skin.
