Cellulite
Cellulite is a term for the dimpled appearance of thighs and buttocks, which will affect 80-90% of all women. The cause of cellulite is unknown, but it is thought to result from an interaction between the connective tissue below the surface of the skin and the layer of fat that is just below it.
At Refine Medical Spa in Chicago, we offer the latest cutting edge technology to reduce cellulite, smooth out lumpy tissues and tighten sagging skin non -surgically. Venus Legacy is a laser based technology that is safe and comfortable with no downtime.
Fat
Non surgical fat removal works best if you are close to your ideal weight but have stubborn pockets of fat that you can’t seem to lose.
We recommend non-invasive fat reduction, such as CoolSculpting to get you to your best self.
Stretch Marks
Stretch marks can develop after childbirth or weight loss.
We recommend Green Peel or laser therapy to reduce the appearance of stretch marks.
Loose skin
Loose, sagging skin advances with age related muscle and collagen loss or weight loss in general.
We recommend Venus Legacy and Fractora for sagging skin.
Incontinence / Vaginal Dryness / Painful Intercourse
Is your sleep interrupted by urinary urgency? Do you experience leaking during sports activity? Are you suffering from vaginal atrophy or are experiencing pain during intercourse? Would you like the outer look of your vulva to improve?
You don’t have to suffer. There is a pain free, non -surgical method of tightening feminine tissues. Refine Medical Spa in Chicago is offering Votiva Vaginal Rejuvenation, an amazing, fast acting treatment developed to help urinary incontinence, strengthen the pelvic floor, and tighten and tone lax muscles, especially after childbirth. Votiva is an FDA-approved device that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy waves to heat and stimulate the cells of the vagina and vulva (external skin) to increase collagen and elastin fiber production. As a result, vaginal moisture, blood flow and elasticity increases.
Typically, Votiva Vaginal Rejuvenation consists of a series of three 20-minute sessions. Most patients notice good results after the first session. The results get better as you complete the series and become longer lasting if you complete the entire series of three treatments.
Excessive Sweating
Did you know that Botox can be used not only to stop sweating but to neutralize unpleasant body odors altogether?Dr. Vulich will use a local anesthetic to numb the area for a painless experience.
Botox is FDA approved as an effective deterrent used to stop to migraines before they can develop. Small amounts of Botox are injected around the head and meck area during this treatment. Botox can help reduce other symptoms of migraine including nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to lights, sounds, and smells.
