What a fantastic experience at Forever Young MedSpa in Lincolnwood! I went in for a Cool Sculpting…read moretreatment and Alice was so helpful! Very knowledgeable and skilled. She has a wonderful way of making her clients feel safe and answered all of my questions. You can tell that Alice is passionate about helping people achieve their desires goals. The facility is also wonderful - during the treatment (which is a lot of downtime and laying still) - music was playing and it was so relaxing I fell asleep while the treatment was doing its thing! I would recommend Alice to anyone seeking to either learn more about the process or actually seeking to give cool sculpting a try. I am looking forward to my next treatment on the way to achieving my desired goals of eliminating stubborn fat cells!

Let me start out by saying they offered me $300 to sign a non disclosure agreement to keep this…read morereview from being written... I chose to leave an honest review instead so others don't end up in the same situation I am in... Like many women, I have always been unhappy with the state of my stomach. Diet and exercise couldn't seem to give me the flat stomach I desired so I turned to cool sculpting as liposuction seemed to be for more extreme cases and was much more expensive. Upon my initial consultation a really nice woman told me I had a similar body to hers and since my problem area "wasn't too bad" that I should see desired results after one treatment. I proceeded with cool sculpting, and not only was I unhappy with the outcome, the healing process proved very difficult. I was told some "slight tenderness" was in order, but what I had was weeks of lumps under my skin that painfully needed to be rubbed out on several re-visits. It felt like someone was pressing fire onto bruises. I didn't notice anything in the way of results so another very nice woman explained that two treatments were needed, and the woman who told me I only needed one was "let go" for giving me misinformation. I spent $2500 on the first treatment which I was being told would be completely wasted without a second treatment of $2100. The second treatment brought more of the same. Extreme pain to the point that I couldn't sleep on anything but my back, calling into work because I couldn't put on pants due to the painful lumps, dizziness, nausea, and this time a swollen stomach for over three weeks that left me looking 8 months pregnant. The woman who preformed the cool sculpting had me meet with the owner Irfan who insisted my case wasn't normal, and they would contact the rep for the cool sculpting to see what could be done. Since my treatment, the second nice woman has also been let go... I lost ten pounds through diet and exercise from the beginning of my first cool sculpting to the end of my second, and I am left looking larger than I did before I had the procedure done in the first place. It's like I am permanently swollen. After months of back and forth and meeting with another doctor (think about ten extra visits in total for complications and viewings), I was told the only thing they were willing to do was another round of treatment for free. If something caused you the worst pain of your life and to be larger than you were in the first place, would you want to put yourself through that again? I explained I understood I signed something saying that results may vary, but no where did it say I would have REVERSE results and such an incredibly painful healing process/recovery. I'm now out $4600 I saved YEARS for with zero compassion from the owner who viewed my horrific situation himself. In fact one of his emails even said, "If the treatment was so painful why did you opt for second round of treatment," and referred to my pain as "alleged" even though he met me with personally on one of my many visits. I found the entire interaction condescending and unprofessional. He acted as if offering me $300 of my $4600 was so incredibly generous. It wouldn't even cover my missed wages or gas for all my follow up visits. Also, I opted for a second round of treatment the same way women opt for another child. Sure giving birth it is painful, but the results are supposed to be worth it right? I was told I wouldn't see any results without it. My mistake for trusting this practice. Do yourself a favor and save your money. They have zero bedside manner, and if your procedure goes awry, don't expect any kind of compensation or compassion. I would never recommend this place to my worst enemy.

Let me start by saying that I have been going here for years...Kelly (technician) & Dawn…read more(receptionist) are 2 of the NICEST people you ever want to meet. Kelly is PHENOMENAL and great at what she does. I have had GREAT results with the IPL laser hair removal. My ONLY complaint is that this laser is broken more often than not. I am in the middle of a 12 month Groupon & 80% of my appointments have been cancelled due to the IPL laser being broken. Then the worst part is that there are rather large waiting lists to get appointments (no problem when you make them 6 weeks in advance but to get an immediate appt to make up for the cancelled appt is not easy) and because the appointments are 1hr appts for large areas, I generally don't get in until my next appt. I am assuming and hoping that they will extend my groupon due to being on a 12 month time limit & this week was my 4th cancelled appt since August (due to the IPL being broken). I have not yet asked about this so I cannot say yet, but I will write another review either way. Due to the large response to groupon, (I know the businesses don't make much from groupon) but I would wish that they would buy a new IPL machine rather than dealing with this one and having to continually cancel appointments. I will also add that due to the fact that I am not having regularly spaced 6-8 week appts on these areas, I am NOT having the good results that I was having with my face. In response to the other reviews I've been reading on here...most of them don't make sense to me. I've NEVER waited more than 5 minutes, I've never had a problem getting thru on the phone, I've ALWAYS gotten reminder calls (Dawn is great about that), and whoever said they were unprofessional I find hard to believe. Yes there is a wait to get an appt, but let me ask you this...when I call a salon and they can give me any date or time I want, I would wonder why..when a salon is good, it is hard to get an appt. Also to the ppl that were saying that they didn't have good results, it may be related to the hair color, skin color, etc, but you do need more than 6 months, it's not magic. I had a face full of hair (like a guy) and I did 2 years straight of laser here and it's about 90% gone!!! To get rid of it I would do 10 more years if I had to! It's embarrassing and no price is too high to make me feel good about myself. I have referred people to this spa and they have all been very pleased--but all with the same complaint as me, THEY NEED A NEW IPL LASER! ;)

Like many others bought a Groupon…read more Initially the place was disorganized, that issue did resolve over time. My biggest complaint here is their laser hair removal is absolutely pointless. You might as well throw your money down the toilet. The laser hair removal techs as nice as they were BOTH assured me that six sessions is all I would need and that that using two different lasers would indeed provide the best results. Overtime I kept saying the hair is growing back the same and they BOTH kept reassuring me that just wait until the sixth session for the full results. Well at the last and final session the tech tried to sell me an additional package and changed her tune and stated six sessions is never enough to see results! I reminded her of the previous conversations we had and she just stared at me with a blank look. This place makes promises they can't keep and is a complete waste of time and money. I have friends that have gone to different places and have much better results. My only advice is to look at the reviews of so many others on the so-called med spa and go someplace else; this place is a complete let down.
