5 Best Med Spa in Chicago (2026)

Independently ranked by our review of ratings, reviews and reputation · How we chose

Botox one week, a chemical peel gone wrong the next: not every med spa in Chicago treats your face the same way. Between them, the clinics below have logged just under 3,000 Google reviews, and every one sits at 4.5 stars or higher, so the real work here is telling apart genuinely excellent from just very good.

Short answer: SpaDerma leads at 4.9 stars across 734 reviews, praised for injector Nico and esthetician Nadya's HydraFacial and peel work across five Chicago locations. Dvida Spa matches that 4.9 rating on 619 reviews and 14 years in service. Pure Med Spa has the largest volume at 865 reviews but a lower 4.5, mostly from Botox and laser hair removal clients. Expect roughly $12 a unit for neurotoxin injections at the lower end of the market.

SpaDerma

4.9734 Google reviews

SpaDerma runs five locations across Chicago (Lincoln Park, West Loop, Lakeview, Wicker Park, and North Shore) offering facials, microneedling, chemical peels, laser hair removal, injectables, and a GLP-1 weight-loss membership. The West Loop clinic gets the most attention in reviews, with clients coming back for HydraFacials, Botox, and lip filler under providers like Nico and Nadya. It's built as a full skincare practice rather than a single-treatment shop, with a rewards program and standing promotions.

What people praise

  • Peel and microneedling results clients call visible within weeks
  • Injector Nico praised for patient explanations before Botox and filler
  • Front desk staff (Sesha among others) called welcoming and unrushed
  • Multiple neighborhood locations, not just one clinic

Worth knowing

  • Some services like chemical peels involve a rough healing week before results show

Our take: The volume and consistency of five-star reviews across different providers and locations is what pushes SpaDerma to the top spot. This isn't one star esthetician carrying the rating.

Dvida Spa | Med Spa Services 60654

4.9619 Google reviews

Dvida Spa has run in Chicago for 14 years, with a second location in Raleigh, offering facial aesthetics, injectables, laser treatments including CoolSculpting Elite and Emsculpt NEO, and hormone-related wellness services. It positions itself as a broad med spa rather than a single-specialty clinic, with signature treatments spanning skin rejuvenation to body contouring.

What people praise

  • Clients specifically flag it as reliable for first-time laser hair removal and BBL photo facials
  • Nurse Taryn called out for putting nervous first-timers at ease
  • Reviewers who've tried other Chicago spas say they keep coming back here

Worth knowing

  • Reception and WhatsApp scheduling systems vary a bit by which staff member you reach

Our take: Matches SpaDerma's 4.9 rating with a slightly smaller review base. Its 14 years in service shows up in reviews from clients who've used multiple treatment types over that time, not just one visit.

Pure Med Spa

4.5865 Google reviews

Pure Med Spa, on N Dearborn St, focuses on natural-looking results with Botox, fillers, and laser hair removal. It markets itself directly as a Chicago med spa built around efficient, no-nonsense appointments rather than an extended spa experience.

What people praise

  • Clients repeatedly mention fast, no-wasted-time appointments
  • Injectors Neda, Mia, and Kaylee named individually for careful, unrushed technique
  • Laser hair removal specifically praised for efficient technique from Meghan

Worth knowing

  • The largest review base on this page also means the most 1-star outliers, though they're a small share of the total

Our take: The highest volume of any clinic here (865 reviews) at a still-strong 4.5 rating. If speed and efficiency matter more to you than a spa-like atmosphere, this is the practical pick.

Old Town Med Spa (Lincoln Park)

4.9448 Google reviews

Old Town Med Spa, in Lincoln Park, offers facials, laser hair removal, tattoo removal, and weight-loss injection programs, with two doctors on staff alongside its aesthetician team. The building itself doesn't look like much from outside, but reviewers describe the upstairs office as bright and well-appointed.

What people praise

  • Tattoo removal clients specifically recommend it for a clean, professional process
  • Sabina and Sabi named repeatedly for detailed, effective facial work
  • Staff flexibility with erratic schedules called out by more than one reviewer

Worth knowing

  • Street-level entrance doesn't signal what's upstairs, so first visits can feel uncertain

Natural Beauty Med Spa- Chicago

4.9275 Google reviews

Natural Beauty Med Spa, on N Dearborn St 4th floor, has served Chicago since 2003 with body treatments and skin rejuvenation, and is led by a triple board-certified plastic surgeon. It runs two locations and leans specifically toward natural-looking injectable results rather than dramatic change.

What people praise

  • Injector Ashley repeatedly described as conservative and detail-focused rather than overselling treatment
  • Clients say results look natural enough that others can't tell what was done
  • Karissa also named for thorough, unrushed consultations

Worth knowing

  • Smaller review base than the top clinics on this page, so fewer data points to judge consistency at scale

How we score

Rating is the live Google average for each business. Review volume measures how many customers have actually left a review, ranked against others in the same search. Confidence blends rating with volume, since 4.9 stars means more when it comes from hundreds of reviews rather than a handful. Recency checks how recently people are still reviewing the business. No business can pay to change any of these numbers.

How much does a med spa cost in Chicago? (2026)

Pricing depends heavily on the treatment. Botox and neurotoxins are usually billed per unit, injectable fillers per syringe, and laser or facial packages per session, with membership plans often reducing the per-visit cost.

JobTypical price
Botox / neurotoxin$12 per unit

Per-unit Botox price sourced from a verified Pure Med Spa review, July 2026. Other treatment costs vary by provider and were not independently quoted in the sourced reviews.

Serving all of Chicago

These clinics cover Chicago’s West Loop, Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Wicker Park, North Shore, and the River North and Gold Coast area near N Dearborn St, so wherever you are in the city, a med spa on this list is a short drive or train ride away.

What to ask before you book a med spa in Chicago

  • Is the injector a licensed nurse, physician assistant, or doctor, and how many years have they practiced?
  • What happens if you’re not happy with your Botox or filler results?
  • How many sessions will a laser hair removal or skin treatment package actually require?
  • Is there a membership or package discount versus paying per visit?
  • What’s the recovery time for peels or microneedling before you can return to normal activities?
  • Which specific provider will you be seeing, not just which clinic?

Frequently asked questions

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from public Google data. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner (badge and top placement), but that never changes another business’s score or position.

How did you choose these med spas?

We pulled real Google ratings and review counts for med spas across Chicago, then weighed volume, recency, and how consistent the sentiment is across hundreds of reviews rather than just a handful.

How often is this updated?

This page reflects Google data verified in July 2026 and gets refreshed periodically as ratings and review counts change.

What’s the difference between a med spa and a regular spa?

A med spa offers medical-grade treatments like Botox, laser hair removal, and chemical peels, typically under the oversight of a nurse, physician assistant, or doctor, rather than purely relaxation-focused services.

Do I need a consultation before booking a treatment?

Most of the clinics above start new clients with a consultation, especially for injectables, so the provider can assess your skin and goals before any procedure.

The bottom line

SpaDerma is the safe default: five locations, a 4.9 rating across 734 reviews, and consistent praise for both injectables and facials. If you specifically want tattoo removal or a more conservative injectable approach, Old Town Med Spa and Natural Beauty Med Spa are worth a closer look first.
