Cirine® Hair Removal & Skin Care has expanded to a third Chicago location in the Gold Coast neighborhood. This move positions the med spa as one of the top-rated options in the city for hair removal amid rising demand for permanent solutions and gender-affirming care.
CHICAGO, Sept. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Cirine® Hair Removal & Skin Care has opened a third Chicago location in the Gold Coast neighborhood, extending its reputation as one of the top-rated med spas in Chicago for hair removal. For clients pursuing hair removal during a gender transition, a nearby provider who understands both the medical and emotional sides of the process can shape the entire experience. The expansion brings that kind of support closer to home for more residents.
Why Is Demand for Gender-Affirming Hair Removal Rising Locally?
Demand is rising as more people navigating a transition look past temporary methods like shaving toward lasting solutions. Electrolysis remains the only FDA-approved method of permanent hair removal. It works across any hair color or skin type, a distinction that matters for facial and body treatment throughout the process.
For transgender females pursuing facial hair removal in particular, electrolysis often becomes the long-term solution once coverage and consistency matter more than speed. Cirine® has treated thousands of clients over more than a decade in business, experience that shapes every electrolysis session the Gold Coast team performs.
How Does Cirine® Support Gender-Affirming Care Beyond Hair Removal?
Traditional electrolysis at the Gold Coast location remains the primary permanent hair removal option, delivered by electrologists, some of whom are dual-licensed as estheticians. That training gives the team a deeper understanding of how electrolysis affects the skin over time.
Cirine®'s gender-affirming care at the Gold Coast location, its closest site to downtown, extends beyond hair removal. Clients can also turn to a wider range of gender-affirming services, including facials and fractional resurfacing, as part of a broader transition-related care plan.
That reach gives transgender females and other clients easier access to facial and presurgical treatment without a long trip from the neighborhood.
Clients have several hair removal paths to choose from, depending on their goals and timelines. Options at the new location include:
- Traditional electrolysis: Effective on any hair color or skin type, including gray, red or light hair that laser treatments typically cannot address.
- Laser hair removal: Works best on hair that has grown to roughly 1 to 2 millimeters. Technology improvements now extend treatment to darker skin tones, though it remains less effective on very light or peach-fuzz hair.
An LGBTQ+ friendly practice by design, Cirine® says that philosophy shapes how its staff approaches every consultation. That approach is now available to more residents, including those newer to their transition, closer to where they already live and work.
