What Are Nonsurgical Face Procedures?
Plastic surgery can be an effective way to achieve a younger, refreshed appearance, but it isn't the only anti-aging option we offer at Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery. For those who are interested in lasting facial rejuvenation without surgery, our Chicago, IL offices provide a number of minimally invasive treatments, each one designed to target wrinkles and sagging around the face and neck. Our nonsurgical face procedures include:
- Ellacor®: This revolutionary micro-coring™ treatment provides firmer skin and a reduced appearance of lines and wrinkles by using needles to extract micro-cores of skin. Not only can Ellacor help eliminate excess skin that leads to sagging, but it also promotes collagen growth to provide lasting results with no scarring.
- MyEllevate®: This technology targets the neck and lower jaw, smoothing away signs of aging with its ICLED® permanent suture system. MyEllevate can achieve similar results as a surgical neck lift but without the scarring and recovery time that come with it.
- FaceTite: You may have heard of BodyTite, a form of radiofrequency-assisted liposuction (RFAL) that tightens skin while melting away leftover fat. FaceTite works the same way, targeting sagging skin and facial fat for a leaner, contoured look.
In addition to these innovative facial rejuvenation treatments, Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery is also excited to offer wrinkle relaxers, dermal fillers, and other popular nonsurgical options to complement your results. Reach out to our practice today to learn more about each of our treatments, and start building your personalized program today.
How Are Nonsurgical Face Treatments Performed?
The finer details of your face treatment at our Chicago, IL office will depend on which method we select during your private consultation, but the overall experience is similar for all FaceTite, Ellacor, and MyEllevate. First, we'll numb your skin using a local anesthetic and/or a nerve blocker. For Ellacor treatments, we pass the handpiece over your skin as it creates channels and removes tiny pieces of tissue to promote healing. FaceTite procedures involve gently inserting a probe under the skin where it will emit RF energy to liquefy fat and stimulate regrowth. MyEllevate treatments are performed with a special pen to create small punctures in the neck and chin, which are stitched together to lift the skin. Thanks to the anesthetic, you should feel little to no discomfort — only a bit of pressure or tugging.
Depending on your desired look, we can pair your nonsurgical facial procedure with some of our other cosmetic treatments for a more thorough transformation. During your consultation, we'll discuss some of these other options, which may include dermal fillers, wrinkle relaxers, chin liposuction, and more.

Northwestern Specialists in Plastic Surgery Reviews
I had read a lot of reviews prior to my procedure so felt it necessary to provide one. I researched many places to consult with but came here first and after meeting with Dr. Moradian, I knew that I didn't have to go anywhere else. The professionalism, knowledge, and genuine interest to get me the exact results that I was looking for was what led me to choosing this practice. From start to finish, everything was detailed out and Kendall was able to promptly answer any questions that came up so that I felt supported throughout. The aftercare and attention that I received during my recovery was top notch. It was very important to me to have natural results and could not be happier. This is one of the best decisions I've made and recommend Dr. Moradian & this practice to everyone.
I recently had a Lip Lift procedure with Dr.Schierle and couldn’t be happier with my results!!! From the first consultation with Dr. Schierle he was incredibly detailed, patient and genuinely compassionate. He took time to listen to my concerns and goals explaining the procedure and the healing process throughly. He made sure I felt comfortable and informed every step of the way.His attention to detail was exceptional and is apparent in my outcome. My results look natural, balanced and are exactly what I was hoping for-refreshed without looking odd or overdone .The care didn’t stop after the procedure either , follow up appointments were just as thoughtful and reassuring.If you are considering a Lip Lift and want a physician who is not only skilled but meticulous, compassionated and truly cares about their patients I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Schierle.

I have nothing but great things to say about my time with Dr Schierle (and Dr.Fine) They have been nothing short of professional and personable. Making my procedures as seamless as possible, answering many, many questions from my parents and myself without hesitation or frustration and providing excellent pre op and post op care. Not to mention his amazing PA Monika Ciesynski who has played a huge role on my care team. They are an amazing duo and I am lucky to be under their care. I would highly, highly recommend them for yourself and your loved ones!Kendall and Barbara have been amazing as far as finances and scheduling goes. The front office is always friendly and ready to help.
With my breast reduction I had immediate relief from my intense discomfort! I had minimal pain and was able to resume exercising within about 20 days. De. Schierle and his team were marvelous and I highly recommend them to others.
