That also means areas which were not treated have been receiving higher levels of laser intensity than is right for an untreated or less progressed area. The areas that were treated properly are doing great so I'd say - be sure your RN is at "just right" comfort level before getting the treatments.

Last time I was there and turned down an additional costly treatment that was being pushed i was told "call us when you're actually ready to invest in yourself." She told me I blocked their number so I couldn't get points (?) but I did not do that. I think they're just having IT troubles but it's insane to take that out on the client. Go literally anywhere else. This turned my self care day into a depression spiral. Big high school mean girl energy. I will say that when I called customer service they were very supportive and helpful. They even refunded me for the unused treatments I still had remaining on my plan. I feel like other locations of laser away might be fine based off of the interaction I had with customer service and reading reviews for River North but unfortunately there are some really negative sales practices happening at this location in west loop. Don't come here unless you want to leave feeling worse about yourself.

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!

I had a 30-minute skin consultation with Michelle, an experienced aesthetician and laser & light specialist. She was knowledgeable, thorough, and made thoughtful recommendations, including a written out individualized AM/PM skin routine. She also discussed appropriate in-office treatments for my personal needs, concerns, and goals (such as the hydrafacial which I now have booked coming up soon)! Overall, this was great, informative experience at Spa Derma in the West Loop. I'm looking forward to my first hydrafacial with Michelle next week!

She's always very positive and in a great mood! She never makes you feel rushed, and she always follows up after your appointment to check in! If you're feeling nervous about getting your first Botox injections or any fillers or any medical grade products, Ashley will definitely take care of you! Love that Spa Derma always has promos also!

She did a scraping of the rash and tested it for fungus and said it was not fungal and suggested maybe it was from taking nsaids... However, I am not one to take pills or nsaids unless I'm really in bad shape so that wasn't the case! She said she couldn't prescribe me anything bcoz she didn't know what exactly it was. There was no further testing done and I was charged, sent on my merry way and told to come back when the rash becomes active again because she said that day it looked like it was just post hyperpigmentation... even though I said it was still itchy. Today I still have the same rash and looking for a dermatologist who can actually help before taking my money... no luck yet.

I would not recommend Dr.Damstetter for your medical needs. I went in for my first appointment and…read moreshe was in the room for all of 3 minutes to introduce her self. The rest of my appointment was with her assistant. She prescribed me two different medications that don't even work. You can not use steroid medication with a anti fungal cream. After that I broke out in hives throughout out my whole body. I called the office and was not able to get in contact with anyone. I then had to email her to get her attention. She asked me to come in for a follow up appointment. Now its two days I had to take off work to come into her office. two times they billed my insurance and charged me. She realizes that the medication was not a good idea and gave me a bag filled with 5 different anit-itch creams. a week latter I am not able to go to work, my whole body is in hives, and I am trying to get ahold of her again. She is not at the same location every day. So now I have to wait a whole week to be seen. 3rd follow up appointment and she spends another 4 minutes in the room and her assistant calls in another prescription. 4th follow up appointment in 2 months and I am getting worse by the day. 6th different medications I finally look for a second opinion. I was recovering from all the different medications she had recommended because she had no idea what to do. never did any biopsy test and when I asked for my chart notes she put in false information. I would recommend going to a specialist that know what they are doing and not using you as a test guinea pig, over billing your insurance, and over charging your for their mistakes. I would have not written this review is she didn't bill me over $500 and say this is my fault.

I booked an appointment with Alyssa Steele for severe hormonal hormonal acne. I cannot reiterate…read morewhat a bad condition I was in at the time of the appointment. Alyssa was super patient and spoke to me for a good twenty minutes before we settled on a treatment plan. I felt like it was a collaborative exercise, and a far cry from previous visits to dermatology clinics that had a very top-down approach to treatment. The assistants helping her were also absolutely fantastic and extremelt personable. Importantly, everyone was tremendously kind. The receptionists at the clinic are also lovely, and always made me feel welcome not just during the first visit but during subsequent visits. It has been roughly five months since my first visit, and my skin is so much better. The inflammation and breakouts are gone, and only hyperpigmentation remains.

Nylle and Aja are absolutely amazing!…read more Adding regular facials to your skin care routine is not only an investment in your beauty regimen but in your overall health and wellbeing. Facials are a great stress reliever; they help you to relax as I almost fell asleep during my lymphatic face massage. Facials help with premature aging; with me being over fifty it's important that I am consistent with skin care and I love a healthy, hydrating glow. Facials help improve product absorption; with the price of serums and creams constantly going up, I can't afford for anything to just be sitting on my face. I need it fully absorbed into my skin. That's how the products work. I tried counting how many steps Nylle performed while doing my facial. Between the steamer and her magic hands I would doze off. I know I was cleansed twice and there was an exfoliant applied. I do remember the ice queens with the charcoal mask because the bulbs were cold. Other than that, it's a blur. Afterwards, my skin felt amazing, plump and hydrated. I really enjoyed the blue sea kale serum which I got to keep as I upgraded to the Blue Steel Facial. Worth it. Aja at the reception desk is very welcoming and not at all pushy about getting you to sign up for a membership. They are running a 35$ facial special for a limited time. If you miss this special, go to the website. There is always a code for first timers. I will return for the recommended Zen Facial. Don't expect me to remember it. Lol.

For me, $35 is just the right price as this is not your typical luxury, spa style treatment. I was greeted quickly on arrival and taken back right on time. Service is provided while sitting in a salon style chair in an open area, so others are getting their facials done next to you. My aesthetician was nice and customized my facial to fit my skin's needs. My skin did feel plumper and more moisturized after my service. I was going on vacation the next day, so I just wanted a little glow. They have a membership which makes the facials a better deal. Personally, I won't come back too often because I prefer going to a spa for a more traditional hour long service. However, I think is a great option for those looking for decent skincare without all the frills.
