Edie Rivera Gust

Edie provides such outstanding skincare, I followed her to her new location. She is now at Mitchell & Co in Lincoln Park. So glad to have found her!

I couldn’t be any more satisfied with the service I’ve gotten from Edie. I was so impressed with Edie’s knowledge and professionalism right off the bat. She answered all of my questions easily and in a way that was easy for me to understand.
Edie immediately made me feel at ease with how personable and gentle she is. She really is an expert in her field, but her amazing demeanor really makes her next-​level! Really. I don’t know if anyone has ever said they look forward to their laser hair removal sessions, but…
Her work totally reflects her knowledge and demeanor too. I got laser hair removal from Edie as well as a chemical peel. She gave me a full run-​down before each treatment, explaining every detail of the procedures, after effects, tools, explanations, expectations, you name it. The results of both procedures were perfect! I’m still raving about it (clearly) to friends and family (and, hey, whoever else wants to listen).
Edie also gave me amazing recommendations for skin products (which I now SWEAR BY!). She even wrote out modifications to the directions on how the packaging says to use the products to best suit MY skin. In a word, this woman is AMAZING.

«Edie’s time and energy spent on detail is second to none. Living in Los Angeles, where skin is a major business, I have yet to find an skin care therapist who I trust like I do Edie. She is a mad scientist when it comes to treatment plans and product knowledge. Truly the best in her field, I always make time to see her upon my returns to Chicago. Thank you Edie, you are second to none!»

I suffered from acne all of my teen years up into my adulthood. Since the age of about 12 I would visit the Dermatologist on the regular and go through the usual steps of being prescribed different creams, lotions, etc… In high school it was so bad I was put on Accutane which did help, but had horrible side effects that still affect me today.
When I first met Edie she said she could help and I was a bit skeptical as I had been dealing with acne for so long and things would work for a little while and then begin to plateau and sometimes get worse. Edie started doing chemical peels with extractions and I noticed a difference right away. She also got me on some great moisturizers and sun screens which dramatically made my skin much more clear along with keeping my pores unclogged and healthy.
We grow up believing that the Dr. knows best and is the end all be all, but I learned that is not the case. Edie was at the forefront of skin care and was getting products that did not need a prescription, had natural ingredients and worked far better than the prescription products I had been using for most of my life.
I can’t thank Edie enough for clearing up my skin and keeping it that way and making me feel better about myself and more comfortable in public. After suffering for years and dealing with the up and downs that came along with treatment, it was so amazing to finally find something that worked and kept my skin clear to this day. Edie was extremely knowledgeable and explained everything in a way that made perfect sense to me. She has a calming presence that makes you feel like everything is going to be alright and that you are truly taken care of.
