Although the staff at Sono Bella Clinica can't get your boss to give you 3 weeks off from work (though we think you do deserve it), they can help you unlock the European secrets to supple skin. This team of beauty experts offer results-based treatments, and they won't waste your time with services that don't provide you with only what you need. Consultations are always complimentary, and we love Renata, the owner, who not only looks the part of a European goddess, but is mindful of beauties on a budget: she stands behind investing in more effective services that require less treatments, putting you on a faster track to great skin while saving you your beauty dollars. Just 20 minutes outside of Chicago, in Morton Grove (plentiful parking), signature services at Sono Bella Clinica include Cellulite Reduction Treatments, Laser Exfoliation and Photofacials for sun damage-free skin.
