Facial Fillers can help you take back your youthful vitality! Our Lakeview Chicago boutique rejuvenation studio is known for our personal and professional service, comfortable environment, knowledgeable and friendly staff, and especially our effective treatment options. You work directly with Dr. Michael Green from initial consultation through each and every appointment, which guarantees you the best experience you can have for your facial fillers in Chicago.
As we age, we tend to lose that little extra something—that glow on your faces that makes you feel young. The fact is, after age 35, you start losing volume in your face. You lose some of the fat pads that make you look younger and even some of the underlying bone structure leaving your face a little deflated. When you see someone who is deflated, without even thinking of it consciously your brain it computes to one thing, older age. Combine that volume loss with a loss of skin elasticity and your face starts to sag slightly and gives you deep facial lines below the cheeks and around the mouth and chin.
That’s where Dermal Fillers, or facial fillers come in.
What Is A Facial Filler?
Restylane™, Juvéderm™ and Volume™ are clear gel like substances composed of hyaluronic acid (HA), a substance that naturally exists in the body. Each product is a result of very advanced technology that gives it the exact characteristics necessary for a specific area of the face. Although it is called “acid”, hyaluronic acid isn’t harsh or damaging at all. Within the human body, large amounts of hyaluronic acid are found between the cells, where it provides skin with its youthful suppleness and moisture.
Facial Filler Brand Names:
Restylane®
Juvéderm™
Voluma™
How A Facial Filler Works
Fillers replace facial volume that has been lost over time. There is a decrease in volume as we age. That decrease combined with other factors, such as loss of elasticity, causes an increase in the appearance of wrinkles and smile lines. Dr. Green replaces that volume in exactly the right place with exactly the right product to make you look refreshed for months to years depending on the location and product used. I always emphasize a comfortable environment during your facial filler experience.

Facial Filler Reversibility
One of the biggest safety features is the ability to remove or reverse the injections. In the rare case that there is a complication or unwanted result, hyaluronidase (a natural enzyme) can be used to remove the filler from the area it was injected.
Why Do We Use Facial Fillers?
Dermal fillers are excellent for restoring or enhancing your natural beauty. If you want more voluptuous kissable lips, or more “cheeky” cheeks, I combine the latest technology and the best technique. As we age, loss of volume in the cheeks can actually make the rest of the face more saggy. Restoring lost volume not only improves the cheeks, but also the lines and sag below the cheeks. We want what you want: natural-looking results that you leave you feeling like your most confident self.
The Dr. Green Approach VS. MedSpas
MGMD Aesthetics is a boutique rejuvenation studio offering a variety of Facial Fillers in Chicago.
“I what I like to call it a “Midwest approach” to all of my treatments, but especially when it comes to dermal fillers. The last thing you want is for a friend to ask “What did you have done?” or to end up looking like an overdone “real housewife”.
At MGMD Aesthetics I appreciate the fact that natural beauty is the goal. I want to do everything I can to make you look natural with normal proportions and symmetry so friends and acquaintances marvel at your youthful vitality and not your duck lips.”
– Dr. Michael Green
What To Expect During A Facial Filler
The treatment is performed directly by Dr. Green, a board certified physician with 20 years of aesthetic injection experience, not a nurse practitioner, physician assistant or nurse. Immediately after treatment, you may experience swelling or bruising that will go away within a few days. It is barely noticeable, and you can go about your normal routine. You can use an ice pack to reduce any swelling. Try to avoid physical activity and laying down for the first few hours. We care deeply about you with our friendly staff standing by to answer any questions and schedule follow ups. Dr. Green is committed to providing the most comfortable environment for Facial Fillers in Chicago.

How Long Do Facial Fillers Last?
Dr. Green will find the correct facial filler for you. Appointments take approximately 30-60 minutes and the results can last 6 months to 2 years after completion of treatment. Everyone’s face is unique which is where Dr. Green’s decades of expertise makes the difference. The technology is designed to provide longer-term results.
The best part is that you can see results immediately. Most patients will see results of the filler right after treatment but allow a week or so to start seeing the final result. You will see an immediate result that can last up to 18 months and is absorbed naturally into the skin. At Fab Face MD, we never pressure you into unneeded or additional appointments if it’s not right for your face.
Side Effects
There is a minimal chance of allergy or other reaction to these gels. Other than the experience and detailed knowledge of anatomy required to use these products and minimize the chance of complications, the products are very safe in terms that there are very few reactions to these products. Those reactions are so rare that there is no requirement for pre-treatment skin testing as there was with past fillers.
Facial Filler Reversibility
Face fillers are made of a natural substance that your body already produces. In the rare case that you have a reaction, Dr. Green always keeps an enzyme available to dissolve the filler material. Be confident that face fillers are completely safe.
