About

Altruistic Esthetics is a skincare and waxing spa on North Ravenswood Avenue in Chicago. Pamela Arcand founded the business and owns it. The salon describes itself as a destination for skincare solutions in Chicago.

The spa is built around a wellness-centered philosophy, and the products it uses and sells are chosen to fit that approach. Skincare products are sold to clients for use at home.

Facials are offered as a 60-minute treatment for $150, a 90-minute treatment for $200, The Slow Glow for an hour at $150, and the Gentle Resurfacing Facial for an hour at $175.
