Aesthetics by Isela

Aesthetics by Isela was created and is run by Isela V., who works as the esthetician at the studio. The business is located at 2725 N Thatcher Ave in River Grove, Illinois, inside Lue Lux Studio.

The facial menu runs from a 45-minute massage-only lymphatic treatment to 90-minute rituals. Options include a Dermeluxx Hydro-Diamond Facial for cleansing, resurfacing, extraction and hydration, a Collagen Infusion Ritual using collagen-supportive serums and a cooling step, an Advanced Cellular Renewal Ritual built on customized PDRN-based skincare, and a Lymphatic Sculpting Ritual that combines Hydro-Diamond cleansing, sculpting massage, a collagen-rich mask and oxygen infusion. Enhanced Lymphatic Drainage pairs a facial massage with one choice of microcurrent, cold therapy or LED light therapy. A PCA Skin body peel is available for areas such as the décolleté, back, arms, legs, elbows and knees, starting at $129.

Brow care is offered alongside skin treatments, and clients can book a facial, a brow service or both. Booking is by deposit: most new clients pay a $50 deposit for facial services, while Lymphatic Drainage Facial Massage and Enhanced Lymphatic Drainage require $25. Deposits go toward the total cost. Cancellations within 48 hours forfeit the deposit, a deposit can be moved once to a rescheduled appointment with proper notice, and no-shows are charged 50% of the service cost.

The studio is open Wednesday and Friday from 10 AM to 7 PM, and Saturday and Sunday from 9 AM to 4 PM; it is closed Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Gift cards are sold in amounts of $50, $75, $100 or $200, or in a custom amount, and gift card sales are final.

Each booking is shaped around the individual client rather than a fixed routine.

The studio is set up so clients feel welcome and at ease.
