AllureMD

AllureMD is a medspa in the South Loop area of Chicago. Its services center on nonsurgical aesthetic work, from injectables to skin treatments. Clients can book for themselves or for a group, and concierge visits for Botox or fillers mean they don't have to travel to the office.

Skin rejuvenation is aimed at sun damage, fine lines, acne scars and uneven tone or texture. Chemical peels are offered in superficial, medium and deep depths. Anyone who has taken isotretinoin (Accutane) in the past six months is asked to avoid a peel.

For injectables, Botox is used on forehead lines, the lines between the brows and crow's feet, with results noticed within three to four days and lasting about four months. Dermal fillers restore volume loss and soften lines and wrinkles, with the product range including Voluma, Volbella, Vollure, Juvéderm Ultra and Juvéderm Ultra Plus. Filler results appear right away, and the true result is seen about two weeks later.

Kybella is an FDA-approved nonsurgical treatment for fat under the chin and neck. It usually takes two or more treatments, and the full effect is assessed about eight weeks after treatment.

Microneedling, also called collagen induction therapy, takes around 30 minutes, and results can keep improving for up to six months. AQUAGOLD fine touch is a microchanneling treatment used to deliver Botox, hyaluronic acid filler and other ingredients into the skin. It takes about 30 minutes, with results usually visible in about a week and lasting three to four months. The practice describes both microneedling and AQUAGOLD as revolutionary treatments.

Care is personalized and one-on-one, with a customized treatment plan created for each patient.
