The Skin Division

I can’t say enough good things about Cat!
I started seeing her for skin treatments, and in particular, IPL photofacials. After getting European, more traditional facials for years to help ease symptoms of my sensitivities, I didn’t see much of a difference. After going to Cat though, I’ve seen results – and fast. The treatments helped immensely with my discoloration and broken capillaries. I have received many compliments on my skin.
Prices are very reasonable and while she provides an upscale service, Cat is extremely down-​to-​earth and makes you feel at ease.
I feel lucky to have found The Skin Division and this will be my go-​to as long as I stay in Chicago.

I’ve gotten a variety of skin treatments with Cat Kano over the past five years or so and will continue to work with her for as long as I can. She does an excellent job, provides great service, and shares ideas about new products and services without ever being pushy or «sales-​y.» I get a lot of compliments on my skin, and it’s largely thanks to Cat.

I have seen Cat for the first time. I had the derma planing. She did a great job. She is honest and expert. Highly recommend her.
Thanks Cat !

My face thanks Cat and I thank Cat. I have been going to her for a couple of years now and usually get a great peel (yes, it involves peeling but leaves my skin looking great with fewer lines and better complexion). She has also done dermaplaning and that was great as well. The appointment time is short, the result long lasting. I will continue to get freshened up by Cat and recommend her highly. No hard sell, not over-​the-​top. She takes care of your skin so what more could you ask for?

Cat is amazing, I found out about her through Unilocal and decided to choose her for the laser hair removal. She uses one of the best machines for laser and she makes you feel extremely comfortable during the process. She is extremely knowledgeable and explains everything you need to know about the treatment. I had my first session a week ago and already I am extremely pleased with the results and cannot wait to go back for my next session.

Cat is wonderful. In fact, I am upset that it took me so long to write a review! I’ve been going to Cat for about two years after I had been going to another skin center for about five. I found her through a living social promotion when i was looking for a new spot for several reasons, the most important one being that the place I’d been going had become really impersonal. Cat is the opposite. She is super nice and she doesn’t make you feel self-​conscious. Not only is she incredibly knowledgeable about skincare, but she’s also a joy to see and chat with. I’ve even made my husband come here a few times and she’s put him at ease. I cannot say enough good things. I’ll end with this: Cat got my skin ready and through my wedding. That included monthly treatments for close to a year and almost weekly treatments in the last month!

I have been going to the Skin Division for nearly 10 years and getting all kinds of skin care treatments from Cathy. She is the most knowledgable in her profession. I’ve gone to other places but Cathy’s results are amazing. Her chemical peels are amazing, she’s an expert at Dermaplaning & Lazar Hair removal. I also love all of her products. I have very sensitive skin and her anti aging products are amazing and last a long time! She spends a great deal of time talking to you in her free consultation so all of your personal skin care needs or questions are answered and met. I had serious sun damage from years of tanning, indoor and outdoor with no sun screen and 22 years of smoking. After a few treatments with Cathy, my skin now looks younger than it did 9 years ago! My sessions with Cathy are awesome. She knows her stuff and she’s very easy and flexible to work with in terms of scheduling. Oh, and you really can’t beat her prices. Not for the quality you get. She’s got 15 years experience. My skin glows and people ask me on a daily basis what I do for it. She’s the secret.

Love Cat! She is the only person I will trust with my skin. She carries a great line of skincare products which has pretty great ingredients (I did the research). I have had laser hair removal with her as well as a few peels. I see such great results every time! She has a great personality and I always look forward to my beauty sessions with her! Highly recommend!

I visited Cat at the Skin Division for the first time because I wanted to get rid of the ugly brown spots on my face from 20 years of tanning. I was amazed at the results after just one photo facial, years of sun damage just flaked away within a weeks time. I highly recommend The Skin Division and will be going back for other beauty treatments.

I have been seeing Cat for numerous skin issues. I first started with
Dermaplaning and Acid peels. Dealing with your skin can be so confusing.
Cat explains everything she is doing and doesn’t push or insult you. I hate when
Medical skin specialists use your personal insecurities to sell sell sell.
Cat cares about your needs. I especially like her continuing education. I have a wonderful morning routine she taught me and get regular laser treatments, peels,
and extra professional advice. I haven’t needed to go under the knife YET. She is doing too good a job with maintenance. See Cat she will transform you.

I go to Cat to get occasional derma planning treatments (which I recommend to anyone and everyone by the way). She is professional, friendly, sweet and does great work! I plan on having her do other treatments as well. She is also very reasonable for her treatment prices. She is my one and only go to girl and where I give all my referrals to those who ask.

I decided to visit Cat after teetering around the thought of getting microdermabrasion or a chemical peel. My skin is relatively clear, but does breakout due to stress or hormones. I was looking for just a refreshing way to clear my skin and remove any dead skin cells.
Before I went in, I called and spoke with Cat on the phone, who took the time to outline the advantages and reason for skin service they have. With being so well informed, I then chose the Chemical peel, as it seemed it would be the most effective for my skin.
When I went in, Cat did a GREAT job! She made me feel right at home, really explained the process, and was extremely informative on the science behind the chemicals and how they affect the skin.
It has been about half a week and I am in the peeling stage. Already, I hae recieved compliments on my «glowy» skin and the fear I had of a Chemical peel are gone. Illusions that my face would be extremely blotchy and
I hope to have continued success and would recommend Cathy. She is talented and manages her business very well. I have raved to her about my friends and family already.
I would go back in an instant & I am!
