MiRadiance Aesthetic Medical Center is led by Chicago’s renowned Board Certified Plastic Surgeon, Dr. Tal Raine.

MiRadiance offers physician-supervised aesthetic medical services to help patients look their best! For body shaping we use the revolutionary, FDA-cleared VASER Lipo system, a minimally invasive liposuction procedure that sculpts specific body areas using ultrasound energy to break up fat with minimal damage to the surrounding healthy tissue.

Many other procedures may be performed either in the office setting or at near-by surgery centers under anesthesia. All are performed by our Board Certified Plastic Surgeons under stringent safety conditions and highest quality standards. Procedures performed may include breast enlargement, breast lifting, facelift and moderate lifts of the cheek and jowl, eyelid lifts, nasal surgery (rhinoplasty), brow lift, tummy tuck or mini-tummy tuck, and many other procedures.

Testimonials


Testi "Vaser is the way to go. You only need 2-7 days of down time, but that depends on the each single person and the area you have done... I needed about 5 days to recover. I had my arms & back done the first time and then my flanks, butt, and inner and outer thighs done the second time. My friend had his abs and man-boobs done and went back to work the next day! So it really depends on you.

Pain - Yes you feel some pain and alot of pressure, but nothing compared to traditional lipo. The results are very very pleasing, less down time and less pain. I feel fantastic and when the swelling goes down i know i am going to look fantastic. (I had my procedure done 2 1/2 days ago.) Dr. Raine made me feel very relaxed and comfortable. I also checked him out with the Board Of Plastic Surgeons and found that he has been board certified for over 20 years.

I wish I knew about Vaser 5 years ago. It would have saved me a lot of pain from doing it [traditional liposuction] the other way."

Testi "I went to MiRadiance hoping to sculpt areas on my lower body including my inner and outer thighs, hips and buttocks. Dr. Raine was very informative and made me feel comfortable at the consultation. The surgery went very well! I was awake and aware of what they were doing but I didn't feel more than just pressure. Dr. Raine and the staff were amazing from start to finish. The first time I looked at myself in the mirror I was shocked at the difference I could already see. I understood that I would have slight swelling and some bruising but could not believe the difference I saw right away. My bruises went away within about 14 days. I would definitely recommend ultrasound-assisted lipo at MiRadiance to anyone to is looking to get rid of their problem areas, not only for the fabulous results but also for the caring and professional staff!"

Procedures

BODY CONTOURING USING ULTRASOUND ASSISTED LIPOSUCTION

MiRadiance Aesthetic Medical Centers specialize in body contouring using state-of-the-art VASER ultrasound assisted liposuction (UAL). UAL is a procedure to selectively remove small amounts of unwanted fat from body areas that are predisposed to fat storage even with diet and exercise.

The benefits of UAL compared to traditional liposuction are:

  • Less downtime
  • Less bruising and swelling
  • Local anesthesia (patient is awake)
  • Done in an office setting
  • Better control over the amount of fat removed
  • Small incision - little or no scarring
  • Costs less than traditional liposuction

OTHER BODY-ENHANCING SURGICAL PROCEDURES

MiRadiance Aesthetic Medical Centers offer a full complement of aesthetic surgical procedures performed by board certified Plastic surgeons in safe and economical outpatient settings. These procedures may include:

  • Breast enhancement or lifting
  • Facial contouring such as full face lifting or mini-lifting and contouring
  • Body sculpting, such as tummy tuck or mini-tucks
  • Rhinoplasty (nasal contouring)
  • Eyelid lifts (upper and lower)

Non-surgical treatments include the following:

  • Juvederm / Juvederm Ultra
