Our Story
Physician-Led
Aesthetic Excellence
Dr. Milton Chavez spent years teaching resident physicians at Rush University before he opened his own aesthetics practice. That background is not just a line on a bio. It is the reason Illari Aesthetics approaches skin care the way a clinical practice would.
The mission is specific. Facilitate the expression of your true desired appearance. Not alter who you are, not hand you a package deal. Give you a treatment protocol built around your skin and your goals.
The office is in Wicker Park on North Western Avenue. A practice that feels professional without feeling cold.

Meet Dr. Chavez
Board-certified in family medicine, trained at Rush University, then kept on as faculty to teach the next generation of physicians. Dr. Chavez has been practicing clinical medicine since the early 1990s.
In 2010, he opened a private practice spanning family medicine, medical aesthetics, and surgical dermatology. His additional training covers surgical scar revisions, Ortho biologics, acne treatment, and advanced filler technique.
None of that is standard at a beauty spa. It is standard at Illari Aesthetics.
“The mission is specific. Facilitate the expression of your true desired appearance.”
