BOTOX® Cosmetic Injections

BOTOX® Cosmetic injection treatments have helped many of our Chicago area patients look years younger, often over their lunch break! Unlike more complicated surgical procedures, wrinkle reduction with BOTOX® Cosmetic injections can be done right in our St. Charles office. You can receive this simple and effective treatment in just one visit and should begin to see the results in a few days. Following a treatment session, you will be able to enjoy smooth, younger looking skin for up to four months. BOTOX® Cosmetic injection treatments may be ideal for patients who are not quite ready for face lift surgery or blepharoplasty, but who still desire a more youthful and refreshed appearance.

Lip Enhancement

You can have fuller, sexier lips in one simple procedure. Lips can be enhanced with fat tissue taken from your own body, or with cosmetic tissue fillers, which are also safe and effective. Our non-surgical lip enhancement treatments take very little time out of your day and produce immediate results. How long the results last depends on the substance you choose, as well as other factors.

Collagen/Tissue Fillers

Collagen and tissue fillers can be used to enhance lips and cheekbones, and to reduce wrinkles in certain places. Ask Dr. Ghaderi which treatment is right for you. Collagen and tissue fillers take minutes to inject and the results can last for months or years, depending on the type of filler you choose and your body.

BOTOX® Injections for Excessive Sweating (Hyperhidrosis)

BOTOX® injection treatments are available at our office near Chicago for the relief of excessive sweating. People who suffer from excessive sweating live with constant fear of embarrassing odor and clothing stains. People with hyperhidrosis often get caught in a cycle of feeling nervous because of their excessive sweating, which causes them to sweat even more. BOTOX® injections are among the most effective non-surgical treatments for hyperhidrosis.

Mole Removal

Mole removal is a fast and easy procedure with the technology available at St. Charles Plastic Surgery. In addition to being unsightly and embarrassing for some people, moles can eventually become cancerous. If you notice that a mole is growing or changing shape, particularly if it is rough or asymmetrical, schedule a consultation with Dr. Ghaderi, or see your family doctor right away.

Esthetician Services

As a licensed esthetician, certified medical esthetician and licensed massage therapist, Michelle has an in-depth understanding of the science of healthy skin and has been trained in how to diagnose and successfully treat and eliminate problematic conditions.

The skin is the largest and most complex organ of the body. But no two skins types are alike. We have different ethnic descents, live in different environments, eat different foods, have different levels of stress and descend from different genetic dispositions. All of these together create an intricate uniqueness to our skin. Share your skin's uniqueness with Michelle. She can offer treatments to meet your individual needs.

Services offered by our esthetician include:

• Jet Peel
• Chemical Peel
• Microdermabrasion
• Antioxidant Exfoliating Treatment
• Deep Cleansing Facial
• Massage Therapy
• Face and Body Waxing
• Guidance for Surgical Patients
• And Much More

Jet Peel

Jet Peel is a natural, virtually painless, skin treatment procedure that dramatically improves the appearance and texture of your skin. Each Jet Peel treatment will gently “pressure wash” your skin utilizing water, oxygen and other optional medical products delivered at supersonic speed. This unique procedure works simultaneously on five different levels at once to deep clean, exfoliate, hydrate, oxygenate, and micro-circulate your skin without any abrasiveness or discomfort. Jet Peel can be performed on all body parts and is a preferred treatment for sensitive areas such as around the eyes and the lips.

Chemical Peel

Our esthetician can apply a chemical solution to the skin which can greatly improve texture and color by peeling away old, dead skin cells. It works excellent for the treatment of photo aging, wrinkles, hyper-pigmentation (brown spots/freckles) and acne. This peel provides complete exfoliation while lightening and decreasing inflammation. It also works great for dislodging acne and even prevents further acne formation.

Alphahydroxy acid (AHA) is the mildest of the peel formulas and produces a light peel. Improvements from AHA peels may be subtle at first, but continued treatments will provide smoother, brighter looking skin.

Microdermabrasion

Our microdermabrasion skin renewal process reduces or eliminates superficial skin blemishes resulting from injury, aging, or prolonged sun exposure. It is a non-chemical and non-surgical process that gently abrades the skin surface to remove dead cells and uncover the smoother softer layer beneath. It can treat sun-damaged skin, fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, superficial pigmentation, enlarged oily pores, acne scares, black heads and white heads. Microdermabrasion can be preformed on the face, as well as other areas of the body. Microdermabrasion enhances the skin's condition and is safe to use on all skin types. Men and women can experience remarkable improvements in skin tone, texture, and appearance. This procedure requires no anesthesia and patients feel minimal or no discomfort.

Antioxidant Exfoliating Treatment

Intense Anti-Oxidant Exfoliating Treatment is a fast acting, result oriented treatment. Active botanical enzymes of pomegranate, pumpkin, and papain offer superior exfoliation, hydration and skin brightening components, NATURALLY, all in one procedure.

Guidance for Surgical Patients

Our skin care specialist can provide guidance toward pre-operative skin conditioning as well as the essentials of post-operative skin care and offer instruction on a suitable skin health program. Skin care services can enhance the results of facial rejuvenation procedures, eyelid surgery as well as other surgical procedures. If you are interested in the benefits of continued esthetician counseling beyond your surgical experience, a comprehensive consultation with our licensed esthetician is available by appointment.

Nutrition Services

What you eat affects every organ, including your skin. In order for you to both achieve and maintain the best results from Dr. Ghaderi's care, you need to be receiving proper nutrition during your post-surgical recovery. Our staff nutritionist is a registered and licensed dietitian who can not only help you recover faster from treatment, but who can also improve and preserve your results from Dr. Ghaderi's care.

Services offered by our nutritionist include:

• Weight Loss and/or Weight Maintenance Programs
• Nutrition Education for Disease Prevention and Specific Disease States
• Realistic Meal Plans & Menu Ideas

Following nutritional guidelines can enhance the results of various facial plastic surgery procedures. Chicago plastic surgery patients who have undergone breast procedures can also benefit from proper nutrition. For example, many breast lift, breast reduction, breast reconstruction and breast augmentation Chicago patients notice faster healing and less post-surgical discomfort when following our nutrition advice. Proper diet is especially important for Chicago tummy tuck and liposuction patients who desire to maintain their body contouring results. If you are interested in comprehensive nutritional counseling, please ask for an appointment with our registered dietician, Ms. Linda Truver.
