    under eye filler her associated messed up and CHARGED ME TO GET FIXED. So I had to go to a board certificates surgeon to get this fixed.
    Veronika N.

    Yet again another awful experience with Nikelle she wouldn't honor my 3 last laser hair touch ups I had left. Even after her injector botched my eye and I came back and they asked me to pay for dissolver and said it looked normal. This is the WORST rip off establishment. Her front desk person even said I had touch ups but her excuse was "she's new" after I traveled ALL the way over there. She then tried to sell me more packages she is a money hungry terrible person. And she had an unpleasant very condescending attitude. She talked to me for 4 seconds total and walked out of the room. You'd think after everything she would just do my touch ups? NOPE. She enjoys robbing her clients.

    These are Yates medical grade skincare products used for one of my treatments, yes I absolutely purchased a bundle of them!

    I've been to Yates Lifestyle Medspa various times, each for a different service with a different industry specialist and every single time has been nothing but positive! Their lead injector, Ashley Bohling is such a sweet, genuine and intelligent woman! I will say I was very nervous going into it, but she calmed me down, put me at ease and made sure I knew all the steps to the process before, during and after. I have never felt so comfortable with someone before, and take it from someone who usually doesn't like doctors or doctor visits, but Ashley is wayyy different (in a good way). She's the only one I recommend to all my friends, family, or even strangers! Thank you so much, Ashley! I'll definitely be back! 100%

    Before VI precision plus chemical peel

    I'm so ecstatic about my skin care plan with Dr. Maja. Not only is Dr. Maja very knowledgeable about skin care, she's also very pleasant to be around making me comfortable throughout the experience. We first started with the VI chemical peel precision plus and that just left my skin glowing and virtually blemish free. Today we did the micro needling procedure which was painless after applying the numbing cream. I'm exited to see what my results will look like in a few weeks. I highly recommend this med spa and has been one of the best I've been to in Chicago.

    Unfortunately my experience here was definitely emotionally draining. I'll start off by saying I've been getting Botox, lip and chin injections for about 3 years now. I recently moved back to Chicago from Las Vegas and immediately started my research on a good med-spa that I can routinely go to. First I contacted a different med-spa, made an appointment for two syringes of Juvederm Ultra plus XC and Botox for my forehead. When I got to my appointment, I found out they had only one syringe left which was extremely disappointing. So I get back to my search and find Ashley Bohling on Instagram. I contact her telling her about the miscommunication I had with another spa and that I wanted 2 syringes of Juvederm Ultra because that's what I was used too. She told me that she usually uses restylane but I've never had that before so she went and ordered what I was comfortable with. So the day of the appointment I brought my mom with me for emotional support. I meet Ashley, she was very nice and the entire spa was clean. Here's where things go downhill and I should have left at the first sign of a red flag. After telling her again where I wanted filler in my lips and chin, she tells me she only has ONE SYRINGE of Juvederm. The first thing that came out of my mouth was saying to my mom "I can't believe this is the second time this week this has happened." Obviously I'm disappointed and I state that I had asked for two, when she looks at me and says I never did. That she knows I didn't because she responds back to all of her emails personally... So I brought up the multiple emails where I had indeed asked and stated that I wanted 2 of them. So now she offers me a free laser hair removal treatment which was nice of her just for her to open the package and there be 2 syringes in there. Yikes. This is where it gets even worse, so after doing my lips (which she did well but I had severe bruising I've never experienced before) she told me my chin was fine and I should get fillers in my jawline. I've never had jawline fillers before, so multiple times I asked for my chin. She finally convinced me to get them where she thought they should be placed. This was the biggest mistake I could have made, I should have never agreed to something just because she has the license to do it. I know my body more than anyone and she should have listened to what I WANTED WITH MY FACE. The fillers in my jaw were extremely painful, uncomfortable and made me look disfigured. Immediately I had bruising, swelling and hard knots in my jaw from the misplaced filler. It was so superficial I could grab it with my two fingers. I told Ashely a few days after, because I wanted to let the swelling go down (I thought the filler was just a reaction/me being swollen) but it looked worse the more I looked in the mirror. She dissolved them for free but there was no offer of giving me the filler where I actually wanted it or a refund for the money, time, pain or sadness I felt after this entire experience. So I spent nearly $2,000 for lip fillers that were so bruised for two weeks I couldn't even go out without being stared at. My Botox was a few hundred and my results didn't last more than a few days if it ever worked at all. This entire experience has made me never want anyone to touch my face again after years of being comfortable. I personally would have handled it completely differently. I came in trying to do something for myself to feel better just to leave feeling so much worse.

    I am having a series of treatments preformed to control my chronic acne and scaring that has accumulated because of my break outs. I am so impressed with my service here and the staff. Tara is a true professional and I am thrilled with my results! I highly highly recommend.

    Laser hair removal has always been something I've wanted to do but just hadn't found a place I wanted to go to. Back earlier this year, an influencer I followed in Chicago had nothing but great raves about it for under arm hair removal. So I reached out via Instagram and within a few minutes, Nikelle reached out and I was able to set up my first appointment. She was so friendly, explained everything that was going to happen, and what to expect. It was quick, easy, and virtually pain free, which I was expecting but nope no pain! So far I've gone for my underarms, face, and recently added bikini line as well. Nikelle is so sweet, thorough with explaining, and super knowledgeable in her practice. I started seeing results just after the first sessions with her, I was shaving less frequently and my bumps and irritation under my arms was finally subsiding. For $199, you can get a small area done as a first time client apart of a monthly deal. If you've been on the fence about it like I was, give it a chance. With Nikelle, you'll be in great hands! I can't wait to get skin care from her in the future to prep for my wedding next year as well.

    Complaint Against LaserAway for Unethical Business Practices and Unauthorized Charge…read more On October 25, 2025, I had a scheduled 11:00 a.m. laser hair removal appointment at LaserAway. I arrived on time, was checked in by the receptionist, and taken to a treatment room. Before the procedure began, a nurse practitioner joined by video to review my health history. When I disclosed that I have cataracts, she immediately ended the call and said I was not a candidate for treatment. I left the facility around 11:15 a.m. without receiving any service. Before booking, I had a detailed phone conversation with an intake representative who strongly encouraged me to proceed. I fully discussed my health history, yet was never told cataracts would prevent treatment. Afterward, I reviewed their policies and found no mention of cataracts as a restriction. Despite being denied service, my card was charged $249.00 later that same day (around 1:15 p.m.). I have called multiple times to request a refund but have been repeatedly transferred or ignored with no resolution. I believe this constitutes unfair and deceptive business practices. The company continues to charge customers for services they do not perform and fails to provide clear medical exclusions in advance. I respectfully request a refund of $249.00 and I think the Better Business Bureau should review LaserAway's policies and billing practices to prevent similar incidents for other consumers.

Im sure about this because it went on for several minutes though I can't be sure they were talking about me. However I'm assuming I was the patient they were mocking because they walked in immediately after, and this was extremely hurtful as my condition is something I'm very insecure about. Then they came into my room all friendly as if they hadn't been badmouthing me moments before. I naturally felt very uneasy and to make matters worse in the 3 minutes that the doctor was in the room he was dismissive and arrogant and didn't even take the time to explain a thing to me. If you want your care to be taken seriously or just want to deal with good/kind people I beg you DO NOT GO HERE.

    Debra is amazing! I had my first electrolysis appointment…read morealmost a year and a half ago for hairs on my chin. I have since added laser hair removal to my underarms, face and bikini. If you only read one thing about this place - hair removal is definitely worth not having to worry about it anymore and Debra is the best at what she does! The process: At your first consultation, Debra takes you through what to expect, including how many treatments, pain level and cost. She evaluated my chin (which was hairrryyy) and said due to my incessant plucking, I had to undergo electrolysis instead of laser hair removal. She gave me a timeline of treatments starting every 2 weeks and eventually downgrading to every 4-5 weeks. She said I would really start to see a lot less hair after my 10th treatment and she was totally accurate. Since then, I've also come in for laser hair removal every 6 weeks or so. All in all, it took about a year, but I no longer worry about my chin hairs and I feel so much better about my appearance The pain: Electrolysis does hurt, but Debra makes it bearable. Since you have to zap (literally) every hair, it is a much more lengthy appointment than laser. But, Debra takes care of you, and after the first couple of appointments you get used to the process Laser is much quicker, but targets more hairs at once so it hurts more in my opinion. Debra will go as fast (get it over with) or slow (take a breath) as you want. She tells you all the post-appointment creams and ointments so that you feel better after you leave her office too. Most of my appointments were during my lunch break from work since her office is downtown. At first with electrolysis there was some redness and swelling that would last up to a couple of days, but could be covered with makeup. Eventually my skin got used to it (and the appointment got less intense) so that all the redness went away within 15-30 minutes The price: So much more affordable that I thought it would be! She lets you know price at your consultation and expected length of the appointments/how frequently you would need to go. So, you can definitely calculate how much it would be in total. I would call Debra a bargain for the peace of mind she's given me about my appearance The place: She works in a dental office which at first sounds strange, but it makes sense given that the chairs move every which way and sometimes you need to be laying down in weird positions. She is always very clean and careful. If she is running late (rare), she notifies you so you aren't sitting around waiting 10/10 would recommend!

Although the procedure itself is uncomfortable, Debra's bright personality and ability to talk about literally anything makes the time fly by, even as she keeps zapping away! Her office is located downtown, it was very easy to get to after work and she made herself available to me after work hours. I would highly recommend anyone looking for laser treatments to visit Debra, not only have I for sure seen exactly the results I've wanted, but she's just so much fun to be around and work with. Highly recommended!
