I love Amara and all the staff at Skinflections. Not only are they knowledgeable but they are kind, and don't pressure you to purchase everything and anything - rather they recommend what specifically would help you as an individual and also are understanding of budgets. I always enjoy going for my appointments and having an espresso from their fancy machine :) read more

Been going here since 2020. My fave tech is Amara. Always very thorough and super friendly. She is always very accommodating with my schedule even though the front desk doesn't really like it. Their attitude could use some work The place is very clean and their new location really steps it up a bit. They do have great deals during Thanksgiving week. Their prices are fair compared to other places. read more

Honestly being a Male going to med spa's is always a little challenging but I had a friend recommend me to this one. All I can say is the facility is such a cozy one with top tier service. I had the pleasure of getting some treatment done with Joanna. I had another tech help me with some laser treatment she was wonderful made the entire process easy going and a great after care program she fully wrote out for me. The rest of the staff is always so kind when I walk in please take some time at trying this Spa! read more

The staff and aestheticians are very welcoming, proffessional and informative. I certainly trust them with my skin care needs and I notice a vast improvement everytime I get a facial here. I never feel pressured to get more than I need. read more

I paid for two packages, each costing $300 (total $600), for laser hair removal on my face and neck. After two years of treatment, unfortunately, I have not seen any change in my hair growth. In fact, I have only experienced more hair growth in these areas. Although I was told that I would see increased but thinner hair growth in areas where it was not previously visible, I at least expected the treated areas to show the results I was anticipating, which was hair removal for a certain period of time. Instead, my money has gone down the drain, as my problem areas not only continue to grow hair in the same way as it did prior to going in for treatment, but now there is additional hair growth in other areas of my face and neck, which has only exacerbated the issue. The staff at the clinic were very kind, but ultimately, the experience was extremely disappointing, considering the substantial amount of money I spent, only to achieve an extremely unsatisfactory and financially regretful result in the end. read more

Love this place. So professional and helpful. Everyone makes sure you are taken care of and understands the process during treatment. Thankful for Mona and Amara! They are so knowledgeable and always trusted them with my skin due to sensitivity. Never disappointed. The results are amazing. Worth every penny. read more

I swear by this place soo much!! I love Skinflection. I've been coming here since 2014 after moving from Michigan and they always meet my expectations. I used to see Ruba for laser and now I see Amara! Amara has such a great work ethic and drive to make everyone feel beautiful. I recommend this place for anyone looking to start laser hair removal and facials, etc. Amara always listens to your needs and works with your skin type. She also recommended an amazing product for eczema. I have really dry skin during the winter months and I used the product for a day and seen no flakes on my face. I will continue to use the product and listen to anything Amara recommends for me. Love this place 100/10 always! read more

Skinflection Spa - This product absolutely saved my face! Pricing was very fair and application is very smooth. It leaves my skin dewy and moisturized. - Laser Hair Removal Near Me - Lincolnwood, Illinois

When I tell my friends the first thing I'm m doing post-quarantine is coming here for a hydra facial I'm not kidding. It did WONDERS for my skin. Not only did my complexion look better and feel SO much better afterwards, but it has really helped my skin care products be more effective. My skin has never looked better. The salon itself is clean and organized, the room where the facial takes place is very relaxing. My esthetician was Mary Ann and she was FANTASTIC. Made me feel super comfortable and explained all the different steps and how it was tailored to my skin. She was very gentle especially during the pore cleaning which can sometimes be a little unpleasant. I seriously could have fallen asleep. Pricing wise the Hydra facial is expensive ($150) but honestly it's less than many spas which can sometimes wander into the $200 range. Frankly I think it's a steal for the quality you're receiving and personally I don't mind paying more for quality especially when it comes to my skin. I do EXTENSIVE research before I go anywhere for my face, hair, or nails and Skinflection was the clear choice. After having received the treatment it only solidified my opinion. This is where I will be going for facials from now on. Additionally, the rest of the staff was also great. I chatted with the receptionIst before and after my treatment. So nice. I never once felt pressured to buy anything which is also a nice little bonus. All in all just a really great experience and I can't wait to go back! read more

If you are really wanted to have a smooth and perfect laser hair removal this is the place to be, I've been visiting this place since 2015 to have my upper and lower lip done, after 6 sessions no hair problems anymore, I did my underarm here and after I completed my sessions I can wear any sleeveless and show my flawless underarm. After I'm done with my underarm i really wanted to do Brazilian Laser but I was so scared, However My girl RUBA makes me feel safe and comfortable so I tried Brazilian laser and I really love my results! RUBA is been doing my laser ever since I started She is the best! I tried BOTOX here too the lady did my BOTOX is Helena she is Awesome as well read more

After going through a series of problems at a neighboring spa I was in desperate need of a change. Through the power of Yelp I saw Skinflection Spa had 5-star reviews and is less than five minutes away from my parent's house. Initially I was skeptical. At the time there were only a handful of reviews and I thought it was too good to be true. However, I was already at my wits end with the current spa I was going to that changing to a new esthetician couldn't be any worse than what was happening at the time. I cannot tell you how pleasantly surprised I was to meet Mary Anne. She is everything that my previous esthetician was not: professional and personable. After going through a series of treatments with her I can tell you she is consistent and diligent. Depending on how your skin is feeling to how it looks she will tailor the treatment to your personal needs. The first time I met with her I had just came back from a 20+ hr flight and suggested I do a hydrafacial. Another time I came back sunburn from a snowboarding trip and suggested I do something calming. Things like that really make her outstanding. Every star Skinflection gets is well deserved because after every treatment I've always left extremely pleased with Mary Anne's work. It's built up my confidence to trust her and the Skinflection team to try other lines of services in the near future. read more

I absolutely love this place! They are so friendly, efficient, and the results are AMAZING! Their pricing is very reasonable too. I've had laser with Rasha and hydrating facials here and they rival any spa I've visited downtown. Give them a try, you will not regret it! read more

Amara is so professional, yet so friendly she will definitely make you feel comfortable and make sure that treatment sessions are something you can personally handle, after my experience with Amara I will never go with anyone else. I highly recommend this spa, you will be amazed with the results you will get. Also on a very positive note they are always on time with their schedules. The Spa is so clean and the staff are always so welcoming. read more

I've been coming here for years for laser hair removal and facials. Sabrina and Amara are excellent to work with. The environment overall is serene and the prices are really fair. It's best to buy the packages instead of one service at a time. read more

This review has been long over due for years, but better late than never. I have been going to Skinflection for my skincare and laser hair removal. They are the only local place that carries Envrion skincare products. I've been using these products for over 10 years and they are the HOLY GRAIL of skincare! It might be a little pricey, but a little goes a long way. It's also your face you're caring for. You'll have it the rest of your life so it's important to take care of. My facial gal Maryanne is the sweetest. She is the only one I will let touch my face. I'm dead serious. She is super thorough with her facials, gets to know your skin to customize your facial, gives painless but effective extractions, provides great skincare advise to keep up between sessions and I always leave GLOWING. My favorite treatments are the Environ facial and hydrafacial. Book Maryanne if you're looking for the best facial of your life. They always have new client specials and bundle specials throughout the year! Next up is my laser gal, Amara, who is the best at what she does. She explains everything and what it takes to get the results you want. I have only done my underarms so far, but plan to do Brazilian in the near future. I love the laser that they use which gives a cooling sensation for minimal pain, quick and effective. I saw amazing results just after my first session. I started end of summer/last fall and will be ready for summer weather. Amara is always able to take me early in the morning, which is a plus with kids. The prices are extremely affordable to laser treatments too. Skinflection is great! I would recommend to anyone who wants flawless skin and hair gone in the right places. I have only been to the Lincolnwood location, but know there is a new location that opened up in Niles not too long ago. I'm loyal to Lincolnwood for Maryanne and Amara plus it's less than 5 minutes away from my home. read more

This spa is like a second home, the staff are professional and super friendly and easy to communicate with. All their services are top tier in the industry and effective. From laser hair removal to facials, the staff is knowledgeable and never pushy. If you're worried or hesitant about the pain of laser hair removal I urge you to try this spa. They made me feel completely comfortable and best of all, the treatments are effective! read more

I've always had a professional experience at Skinflection spa. Amara is always personable and makes you feel comfortable. They explain the process and always offer you the best deal. Ive seen amazing results in hair reduction on my lip and face. The hair on my face barely grows anymore. I go in for a session once every 5 to 6 weeks for treatment & on the 6th week is when I see little growth & that's when I'm due for my session. I 100% recommend this place to all my girlfriends & friends. It is so helpful for girls & men who have dark hair or more hair than normal. The place is clean, I've never seen it a mess which is a huge thing for me. I hope to do more later on other parts of my body. Thanks Skinflection! read more

Sweet staff great service. I just started my laser hair removal treatments and already see a difference! Can't wait to be hair free! Would definitely recommend going here! read more

Came here because my friend recommended me for a facial and I literally just finished my facial I am in love. This is my new spot now! Maryanne is awesome at what she does and she's so friendly it felt as if my friend was doing my facial rather than an esthetician. My face feels great and looks awesome. Already made my next appointment to see her next month! She's awesome!!!! read more

I've been a client with Skinflection for years and couldn't think of a better investment! I started my hair removal treatments with Mona and have now since worked with Amara to touch up any areas of my body that show minor growth. Both technicians are amazing at their job and making you feel as comfortable as possible. Amara is extremely knowledgeable and professional. The salon is clean as can be, with the use of the newest machines which successfully show great results. The transforming since beginning the laser hair removal treatments has been amazing. I no longer have to worry about shaving and uncomfortable hair growth pains. read more

For anyone considering laser, save yourself the overthinking and just do it! It will be the best investment ever! I have always battled with a forest growing on my face and have grown accustomed to getting threaded but never the pain it cane along with it! I recently got engaged a year ago and decided it was time to get laser . I didn't want to have to worry about getting threaded before my wedding or breaking out from the irritation any longer. I have been doing only my face each sessions. I Began in December 2016 and honestly by the 3rd session I had seen such an improvement on the hair growth and my skin (will be going on my 7th) As I suffer from acne and oily skin. And since doing the laser I really feel it has helped improve my complexion and lessen the breakouts.( One of the many perks of doing laser!) The staff here are all amazing. So experienced and well trained. they are honest and caring ladies and will never push you do anything you don't want, but will always offer you as much information as you need. Battling with acne I was always so hesitate to get any facials or anything done to my face, afraid of the reaction. While doing my laser alot of the ladies all recommended trying out micro-needling to help with my acne scars. Again was hesitate as the reaction might not be so positive, but when Helen talked to me about it more and also showed me pictures of a client one she had recently done it on. I was pretty convinced. The results from my needling were amazing! Not going to lie it hurt like a b**** but after the recovery period seeing the amazing results in 3 days! I was sold! I have been getting so many compliments from so many people, it makes me happy that The procedures are working and making a difference!! I definitely recommend anyone thinking of getting a laser or facial to try out skinflection!! read more

So, I'm going to start by saying what all of my friends told me I would say after starting laser hair removal: I don't know why I waited so long. I wound up stopping by Skinflection Spa one evening after being quoted an outrageous amount at a nearby spa. Several friends had recommended this place previously, and I wish I'd made it my first stop. The distinction between Skinflection and the other business was clear the moment I walked in the door. I was greeted warmly by one of the co-owners, Helen, even without an appointment. After a very short wait, she was able to see me for a consultation. Helen actually took the time to explain the process to me; something the technician at the other spa didn't think was important. Helen also shared visuals that mapped exactly what I could expect when undergoing treatments, and explained the different phases of hair growth. She took the time to answer my questions. It also gave me great comfort knowing she is a nurse, and it was clear she cares very deeply about the safety and well-being of all clients. My body hair has always been something that I am very self-conscious about; God was too generous with hair when designing Assyrian women. Helen made me feel comfortable, and assured me Skinflection is a no-judgement zone. I really appreciated her sincerity. I knew laser hair removal wouldn't be cheap, but I was given a price that was fair and affordable -- and much less than what I'd been quoted at the other spa. She was able to squeeze me in for an appointment for full body laser the following week (something I soon learned is a rarity). I was leaving the country just a few days after my scheduled appointment, so I was cutting it pretty close. I saw Sabrina for my first treatment. She was friendly, funny, and made what would have otherwise been an awkward experience (it's not normal to expose oneself to strangers) a good one. By the time we were done (about an hour or so), it felt like we were friends. She took a few minutes at the start of my treatment to explain the machine, which she noted is the newest out there. The pain wasn't that bad. Actually, it wasn't very painful at all, really, apart from the underarms and parts of the Brazilian -- where I felt just a pinch. The results were incredible. Sabrina explained that I would start to see results 10-12 days after my treatment. I waited as the days passed, eager, hoping that this would finally be the solution. I was tired of years of shaving and waxing. I have to say, I was thrilled with the results I saw after a single treatment. Some areas stopped growing altogether, and where it did grow back, it fell out. After just a single treatment. I went back and was seen by Amara. At first, I was hesitant to see someone new, but she was equally lovely and kind. She completed my treatment swiftly and again there was a sense of comfort. I am already beginning to see a serious reduction in hair growth. This is undoubtedly one of the best investments I have ever made. I didn't intend to write this much -- but there are just so many great things to say about Skinflection and their staff. They do book up very quickly, though, so book in advance and try to avoid rescheduling! I had to reschedule once and the soonest appointment was three weeks out. I would recommend Skinflection to any and all seeking laser hair removal. read more

The staff is lovely. The service is a reasonable price compared to other places. The place feels very clean.

I have been going to Skinflection for a while now, Amara is incredible when it comes to making her clients feel comfortable during a laser session. She takes her time and the results prove that! Amara recently recommended the Hydrafacial with Maryanne the skin Esthetician (who is also an amazing laser technician) and I instantly fell in love! I had the facial done a couple of days before a big event and my skin looked incredible with and without makeup. Maryann does an amazing job making sure your skin is reacting properly throughout the entire session. Maryann goes back and makes sure your skin looks flawless. I would definitely recommend Amara, Maryanne, and Skinflection!! read more

Amazing place. Sabrina was very nice and patient. I would 100% recommend! Everything was quick and easy!

I go to skinflection to get laser done and it is always a pleasant experience. The staff is friendly and warm and makes you feel comfortable! Booking appointments around my schedule is easy as well. I'm loving the results and I always look forward to heading in for my appointment. read more

I have been coming here for over a year and honestly it's been life changing. I was recommended by a friend to try laser and I will never go back to regular shaving, they also have a lot of promotions which I love so take advantage! I later tried their facials and let me tell you MaryAnn is the best in the game, she lets you know exactly what you need and never tries to oversell you like these other places. I tried the hydrating facial and my skin was glowing for weeks!!! read more

I LOVE THIS PLACE! I am there every four weeks for a procedure, whether it is laser, facial, micro, chem peel. I LOVE THIS PLACE. I was initially referred by a friend and I cannot get enough. Everyone here treats you like family. I don't feel self conscious or nervous while undergoing a procedure. I have no hair on my underarms, and my results on the rest of what I am doing are at about 70% hair reduction after 2-3 sessions. I LOVE THIS PLACE. It is so much better than any overpriced spa in Lincoln Park and Lakeview. Go, and I know you will not regret it. read more

Update on my laser: I have been doing my laser for almost 1 year now and my results are amazing!!! Amara is my laser tech and she's great. Very friendly and makes you feel super comfortable. (She knows her stuff) Definitely recommend her if you're looking to laser. I also recently did a facial with Maryanne, and she was amazing.. my facial left me glowing!! I did the environ facial. She is very friendly and knowledgeable . Recommend both of these amazing girls for all your beauty needs read more

Felt so relaxed after getting my first facial with them! I loved that my skin goals and concerns were a priority to the esthetician and she made the whole process so great ! read more

Clean small med spa. The staff are friendly and the RN took a great amount of time to educate me on the services and products- which was lovely. However, I see little to no change since the injections. I would have shared my concerns but I'm still waiting for a follow up call. I had high hopes for a long term relationship here but I'm sadly disappointed. read more

I love this place. The employees are very professional, friendly, knowledgeable and honest. I always see Sabrina who is quick, caring, friendly and very professional. The office is very clean and organized There is free parking Easy scheduling and they call to remind you. I highly recommend this place read more

Love this one stop spa! I started laser hair removal back in September and the results are phenomenal. My technician, Amara, helped make my experience very special. She is very professional and knowledgeable and makes me feel welcome and comfortable. She is also a great conversationalist and has a great sense of humor. The space is very clean and the decor is classy. Love this place! I've also had a chemical peel with another technician and she was equally as wonderful! Thank you!! read more

Love love love it. From the front it looks like a regular small storefront but it's really nice inside, great vibes without overdoing the whole spa smells thing. The technician I had -Mary Ann is really amazing making you feel comfortable and relaxed right away. I got the environ facial which I highly recommend. I feel amazing and am so excited to go back read more

I was really nervous to start my laser sessions on my face, but I'm so glad I chose skinflection. Amara is the one that's been doing my laser and let me just say she is the sweetest and makes me feel comfortable. Because of her I feel more confident. The results on my face are amazing and I couldn't be more happier. Whoever is deciding to do laser don't think twice about coming here, you'll not be disappointed!! read more

I love this place! I had been looking for hair removal places for a long time and when my friend recommended this I had to try it. I just went for my 4th session last weekend and I see a lot of change already. Amara has been the one helping me out with my sessions, and she is amazing. She is super funny and professional. Talking to her distracts myself and makes the process go by faster. She explains the procedures in depth and makes you feel very comfortable. And what i love the most at this place is how clean it is, and the fact that you don't have to pay for a package or certain amount of sessions upfront. You can pay as you go or they have good deals too. I simply love it! read more

The staff is super sweet! I had a lot of concerns because I'm soooo picky on people doing facials, haven't had the best experience with them. But... I've only had the best experience with Skinflection. They're so honest with you, they want you to be happy. I was happy and my skin GLOWED for days. The massages are amazing as well and so nicely priced that I can actually afford them. I'm so happy I tried them out, I was pleasantly surprised! I def can't wait for this quarantine to be over so I can come back! read more

Coming here is the best decision I ever made! I love the feeling of going to vacations and not having to shave. I've had multiple laser technicians and have loved every single one of them. On top of this, their prices are so hard to beat that I drive from downtown just to come here. Would definitely recommend Skinflection to anyone looking for a good laser hair removal spot. I haven't had one of their facials or other services yet, but I have no doubt I would love the results there as well! read more

I've been going to Skinflection spa for about four years now and it's the best thing ever!! The entire staff are amazing, super friendly, patient and very easy to communicate with. I always feel super comfortable coming to the spa. I also see the best results when I do laser, it's the best thing I could off of possibly started doing for myself! Also I've done a facial here it was wonderful and so relaxing. I recommend everyone to come here!! Best spa ever! read more

Have been going to Skinflection for a few years and was always impressed by the results, quality of service and professionalism of the staff. Amara has been performing my laser sessions for the past handful of months and has been great to work with. She has a strong attention to detail-which is something everyone HOPES the person holding the laser to your face has! She's been working with me on the settings and my tolerance and striving to ensure better quality results. Would strongly recommend her! read more

I recently had my first ever laser appointment at Skinflection and it was the best decision I've ever made! Amara made me feel so comfortable and calm during my treatment! The girls are very professional and very informative. Can't wait for my next visit! read more
