We recently beautified the lips using Restylane of one of our happy clients. Here is the story:
“I have always been embarrassed that my upper lip was so thin that I could not even use lip liner or lip stick to make it look normal. I read about how Restylane was the only FDA approved dermal filler for lip enhancement so I decided to meet with a board certified Plastic Surgeon that has a lot of experience in lip restoration, both cosmetic and reconstructive. Dr. Casas was so understanding when we met on my initial consultation. She and her staff helped […]
We wanted to share with you the testimonial of one of our delighted patients. Here is the story:
“My lips were disappearing over the years! I knew that lips normally deflate as you age, but my daughters wedding was approaching and I decided to investigate my options for facial rejuvenation including lip enhancement. Dr. Casas and her staff were amazing. They were so respectful of the fact that I wanted to look my best for this big day but also that I had a budget. Together Dr. Casas and I developed a strategy to help me look my best. It started […]
My lips are disappearing! Can I have lip enhancement and still look natural instead of having big duck lips?
Dr. Casas can help you achieve your goal of natural lip enhancement with a safe, effective office procedure using a facial filler called Restylane. Restylane is the only FDA approved dermal filler for lip enhancement. Together with Dr. Casas you will decide if your lip contour and size merely needs to be restored because of volume loss from aging or if your thin or disproportionately sized lips may benefit from natural enhancement with Restylane. As always it is best to consult with […]

Dr. Laurie Casas is quoted in Crain’s Article about Chicago executives who seek to “turn back the clock” through the use of plastic surgery.
“There was a time when the only men coming in were men 45 to 50 wanting eyelid surgery. That still is popular,” says Dr. Laurie A. Casas, spokeswoman for the Arlington Heights-based American Society of Plastic Surgeons and associate professor of surgery at Northwestern University’s Feinberg School of Medicine. But now, she says, executives also want Botox shots, laser surgeries and microdermabrasion.
“Everyone wants to look in the mirror and see themselves refreshed, awake and alert,” she says. […]
Dr. Laurie Casas discusses various facelift techniques in the Orange County Register. Surgeons cannot accurately inform patients of how long results will last with new techniques such as the “Feather Lift” and the “Lifestyle Lift.” In contrast, Dr. Casas can give patients a reasonable expectation with traditional facelifts. She says,
“Traditional facelifts have stood the test of time.”

Question:Im wondering about sun squint lines, going horizontal on the top part of my nose and then up and down lines just between my brows, which create darkness and make me look like I’m mad or something….can these be “erased” without surgery? I realize Botox would be needed probably, but can those lines “really” be filled without making that area look swollen?”
Answer: Squint lines can be addressed a couple of different ways. A simple immediate solution would be to eliminate the problem all together by investing in a pair of wrap around sunglasses. Wrap around sunglasses will greatly reduce any […]
