Hyperhidrosis Awareness Month

The medical condition hyperhidrosis, is when the body sweats four or five times more than normal. When sweating is this extreme it can be embarrassing, uncomfortable, and anxiety-inducing. It can disrupt all aspects of a person’s life. Luckily, we have many treatment options available to our patients! Prescription strength topical antiperspirants and oral medications. miraDry® is a non-invasive procedure that permanently reduces underarm sweat, odor and hair in hyperhidrosis patients. Even better news, miraDry is $500 OFF when you get a package of two treatments in November! Botox for hyperhidrosis is an option for underarms, palms of hands and hairline. The sweat-blocking response time is usually 2 to 4 days after treatment and lasts  for 9 months.

Introducing EmTone!

Have you heard about our newest treatment here at CCSD?! EMTONE is the first and  only device that simultaneously delivers both thermal and mechanical energy to treat all major contributing factors to cellulite.  We love this radiofrequency plus acoustic shockwave device because it treats cellulite, reduces fat, and also helps tighten and tone skin!  With this treatment you can get up to a 60% increase in collagen and elastin, the essential building blocks for skin’s elasticity and firmness! This would be a great treatment to combine with an EMSculpt, Thermage, or CoolSculpting procedure for even more optimal results. Feel free to call our office at 312-245-9965 opt. 2 to schedule your complimentary consultation with any of our Certified Physician Assistants!

An Esthetician’s Point of View by Angela Preski, LE

From our Licensed Esthetician, Angela - PCA Antioxidant treatment I am so excited for this month's special - $25 OFF a custom Microdermabrasion with Dermalinfusion and an added PCA Skin Antioxidant Exfoliation treatment! The best of both worlds, this treatment begins with a Silkpeel Dermalinfusion Microdermabrasion which extracts all the dead skin and debris from your pores. A PCA Antioxidant Exfoliation is done next, to brighten and exfoliate your skin leaving your face  feeling crystal clear! I like to describe the PCA Antioxidant Exfoliation as a great way to boost the customized Microdermabrasion with a hint of a chemical peel; specifically a Sensi Peel mixed with PCA Skin’s Nutrient Toner. My patient’s love this treatment, which is perfect for people battling acne, light hyperpigmentation, or just wanting a more clear and even skin tone. It’s safe for all skin types, even sensitive skin! Call to schedule with me or one of our other Licensed Estheticians today at 312-245-9965 opt. 2!

Improvement to patient services section (new Rx module)

Chicago Cosmetic Surgery and Dermatology participates in E-Prescribing, a popular method of electronically and securely sending our request to dispense your prescription medication directly to a pharmacy of your choosing. As of September, the Practice will transition to a new e-prescribing software called Dr. First, which offers important elements to continue to improve the quality of patient care. This will be a seamless transition and will not affect your next visit. If you do have a preferred pharmacy, please let us know at your next appointment or via updating your patient portal. Don't hesitate to reach out to our office team at 312-245-9965 opt. 3 with any questions about e-prescribing. We are happy to help simplify and navigate your medical care!
