Lake Forest Plastic Surgery

01/05/2015

Well, just finished the week-long practice-transition move to Colorado, and saw my final patients in Illinois last week, signaling the bittersweet closing of Lake Forest Plastic Surgery, Ltd. I would like to thank my staff and those who helped in the hospital setting over the years, but especially all of the patients who put their trust in me (and my father) over the past 14+ (40+!) years. I will continue to be active for many more years, however, as part of The Center for Cosmetic Surgery, with their exceptional private surgery center in Golden, CO, and satellite office in the Cherry Creek area of Denver. Please visit us at thecenterforcosmeticsurgery.net, "Like" us on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/centerforcosmeticsurgery, or better yet, visit us out here in person! Meanwhile, thank you once again and have the Happiest of New Years in 2015!

Happy Spring (finally)! Norma says this is the ideal time to have your photofacial rejuvenation or laser hair reduction performed; it's also the ideal time for "Mommy Makeover"-type procedures to be ready-to-go for this summer. Please call us at 847-234-9464 to make an appointment and individualized plan for you today!

It's not too late to take advantage of our February Facial Fillers (and Surgery) specials, as well as our laser hair reduction packages with Norma (January's offers extended).

According to Norma, now is an excellent time to get started on laser hair reduction (which usually yields best results after a series of treatments every 4-6 weeks), to be looking your best when the weather gets warmer again next spring (6 months from now . . . ) We're running a special of 15% off individual treatments or 10% off (already discounted) packages if you initiate by the end of the year (and mention this post). Please call 847-234-9464 for a confidential consultation with Norma to get started!

Get beautiful more youthful looking skin with a Microdermabrasion treatment! Microdermabrasion decreases the appearance of superficial hyperpigmentation, and photo-damage, as well as diminishes fine lines, wrinkles, and shallow acne scars. Removing the dead skin aids in the pe*******on of skin care products by up to 50% and make-up will go on much more smoothly. Please call us at 847-234-9464 to schedule your skin evaluation consultation and/or treatment with Norma today!

Norma (our skin aesthetician) says that now is the perfect time to come in and discuss photo-facial IPL skin resurfacing (featuring our Palomar-platform Starlux 500 system), to be delivered monthly in approximately 3 treatments this fall, and have your complexion glowing for the holidays. Please call 847-234-9464 to schedule a skin analysis consultation with her on an upcoming Wed, Thurs, or Friday!

Although we have left "Skin Cancer Awareness" month (May), with a beautiful weekend (and hopefully several months) on the way, now is really the time to follow through on sunblock and skin protection in general. And remember, if you or someone you know has a skin lesion that has not healed/resolved for 2-3 months (or a darker lesion taking on ominous charachteristics), a biopsy should be considered . . . and where better than Lake Forest Plastic Surgery, where we will leave you with a predictable, minimal, well-hidden scar. Minor biopsies can even be performed in the office, avoiding the hassle (and potential charges) of the hospital altogether. Please call us at 847-234-9464 if you or yours have a concern (the visits and procedures are usually covered by insurance), and meanwhile, have a great summer!

Impressed with how Angelina Jolie managed to keep private her decision to undergo a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy (increasingly common in this age of genetic testing) and her several surgeries involving nipple-sparing, implant-based breast reconstruction, and then how she released this information to the public on her own terms, in an empowered, supportive way. If you know someone who's facing a mastectomy and feeling overwhelmed, make sure they know that there are many excellent reconstruction options available to them (the object of the BRA - Breast Reconstruction Awareness - movement); we do so every week!
