I came for laser hair removal after knowing really nothing about it & Jocelyn was & is friendly & listens to my needs and concerns.
The area pictured has drinks off to the side, hello mimosa please! Or wine or I think they had pineapple vodka. So they really know how to pamper you!
I started with 1 area & have since added another package for another area because the treatments work & she does such a great job. She allows me to catch my breath when needed which I appreciated.
As odd as it sounds I actually look forward to my short treatments! It's a little me time!
And I was talking to another client who was there for a skincare treatment with her girlfriend and she couldn't say enough good things about the boutique. Which gave me even more confidence in choosing Leah Chavie for my skincare needs!
The crazy thing is I'm already seeing results on my second treatment for the one area & the one area we literally saw a few instant results! So like guys, it works!!
I highly recommend Jocelyn at Leah Chavie!!!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Jacky V.Garfield Ridge, Chicago, IL8052Feb 11, 2023
Got a Groupon for a $150 facial that barely lasted 30 minutes. Great staff and cute place but it felt absurd to have paid that much for an express service.

Disappointed; some of the staff(a trainee) and the owner herself Leah, not wearing a mask. Some guy was walking in & out of the spa moving furniture w/o a mask on. Reggie completed my facial, only wore a thin surgical mask during my facial, no face shield. Room was cold, folks talking in the hallway/lobby area..which you can hear from the service rooms. I mean,.this place is tiny.
Leah's staff did take my temperature upon entering, but never asked me to sanitize or wash my hands before passing clipboards and paperwork around which staff was passing along and touching. We are still in the middle of a pandemic...Leah & staff can do better..way better!Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - C C.Chicago, IL025835Aug 1, 2022
Awful experience. I came for a Hydrafacial which lasted exactly 18 minutes. I've had many hydrafacials before at other med spas and they typically take at least 30-45 minutes. The machine seemed to not be working for parts of it as she kept having to mess with the settings. She skipped many steps that are typical in a Hydrafacial that I've had elsewhere. My skin feels and looks exactly the same coming and going. This was a complete waste of money. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere.

I wish I could give it zero stars.
I bought a gift voucher and scheduling was incredibly difficult and am unsure why. I called and left a message saying email was best to reach me and no one followed up. I finally got a hold of someone and was suppose to get an email follow up and never did. Then called several times asking to get an email confirmation.
Once I came to my appointment I wasn't educated on any of the procedures. I did the thermo jet service and was not told to bring a change of clothes. I was sweating through my clothes and it was very uncomfortable. I also saw pictures of this procedure and it was on the legs, midsection and Arm. I didn't have anything applied to my arms. When that was finished I had a facial appointment I then waited 10 minutes for. Reggie was kind enough to take my clothes and put them in the dryer but I just sat in my clothes sweating.
Reggie did a fine job on the facial however I disliked a lot of the products used. I've gotten other facials before and my skin has never get this way before.
I am deeply disappointed in the service I received from this salon. I am unsure how much Leah is there to work with staff or to train them on what to do. It is very disappointing and a waste of my time and money to come to this place.Helpful 3Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Ami P.Chicago, IL407354May 31, 2019
I went to LC yesterday for the infrared thermojet body wrap. My friend told me about it, and I was excited to try it! They have an introductory price, which is great for first timers!
Cece and Reggi helped me check-in and check-out. Both of them were extremely welcoming and friendly. The body wrap was awesome. I noticed a difference when I was done. I ended up purchasing the package of 4 because I loved it so much.
I am coming back in July for a facial with Reggi (Groupon) and I'm so excited.
I love their referral program -- $50 credit for your and your referral.
My only con is that it is difficult to make an appointment. I've had to call and leave voicemails several times, and even message on Instagram message to get a hold of someone. I wish you could schedule online, which would be so much easier.
Overall, I highly recommended LC to anyone and everyone for superb skincare treatments!Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Cinthya Q.Logan Square, Chicago, IL159370715Oct 3, 2018
I have been going to Suzie for acupuncture treats since this past summer, and she has been heaven sent.
I mainly go for stress release, relaxation, and weight loss. The stress and relaxation are instant. The spa space is calming, there is quiet music, and the spa atmosphere really gets me to relax. The weight losss acupuncture has been slower. And to be honest, the weight loss has come in with a diet plan and an exercise routine. Following all three plans has helped with weight loss.
That being said, I have really enjoyed Suzie's demeanor, her 'bedside manner', and her attitude. She is understanding and always listens to everything I have to say (whether or not it is related to the acupuncture session or not). She has the perfect demeanor for her job, and I am very happy to go to her.
Suzie, you are amazing and I am very happy to have found you and your magical needles.
She also does cupping, which I am excited to try next.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Sarah S.Chicago, IL01Aug 31, 2021
I had an excellent first experience at Leah Chavie. I was skeptical initially because I came in for a consultation and hadn't selected a treatment ahead of time. However, Jocelyn asked the most thoughtful questions and guided me towards the best treatment for my current needs. She was also incredibly patient with all of my questions. We settled on dermaplaning and the laser genesis treatment because my main concern was recurring breakouts and acne scarring. The treatments were well worth the investment. Immediately after, my skin was incredibly plump and glowy. It's now been 5 days since coming in to the boutique and the pimples have been shrinking/my skin has been getting clearer each day. If you're on the fence about investing in laser genesis, or are looking for a new regular spa, I'd highly recommend this spot.

So far, decent.
The signature facial was great for my first visit. All of the personalities I came across at Leah's were welcoming. The entire experience was relaxing and rejuvenating. My skin concerns were addressed, and I was pleased to be dismissed with great skin. I bought a package of facials to continue the rejuvenating process of skin perfection, and in hopes of seeing results delivered.
Here's to hoping the next several appointments continue to impress.
Dermaplaning: 3
Laser Genesis (3treatments): 3
Various facials: 3

Just had my first facial with Leah and it was FANTASTIC! A few days later and my skin is soft and glowing. First facial where I wasn't red or peeling or breaking out immediately afterwards. Leah gave me fantastic and cost effective suggestions for how to take care of my skin, so personable and knowledgeable, and I can't wait to go back. Definitely recommend!
