Types of Non-Surgical Treatments

We offer multiple different kinds of non-surgical cosmetic procedures at our two locations in Chicago and Glenview, including:

Injectables

• BOTOX® & Dysport® – These injectables are used to smooth out dynamic facial wrinkles and fine lines by temporarily relaxing the muscles that cause them.
• Dermal Fillers – Injectable fillers are used to restore lost volume, smooth out wrinkles, and enhance facial features like the lips and cheeks.
• Kybella® – This treatment is designed to reduce excess fat under the chin, offering a non-surgical solution to improve the contour of the neck and jawline.

Skin

• Chemical Peels – These topical solutions are used to exfoliate the skin, addressing concerns like uneven tone, texture, and signs of aging to reveal a smoother, more radiant complexion.
• Microneedling – This procedure stimulates the skin’s natural healing by creating tiny micro-injuries, boosting collagen production to improve texture, reduce scars, and enhance overall skin rejuvenation.
• IPL Photorejuvenation – Intense pulsed light (IPL) uses broad-spectrum light energy to address skin concerns such as sun damage, pigmentation, and redness.

Hair

• PRP – Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is derived from the patient’s own blood to stimulate hair growth (as well as skin rejuvenation) by enhancing natural healing processes.
• Laser Hair Removal – During this treatment, we can reduce or eliminate unwanted hair by targeting hair follicles, resulting in smoother skin without the need for frequent shaving or waxing.
