Chicago Area Cosmetic Surgeons Announce New Brand, Expanded Services - Doctors Give Themselves a 'Makeover'.

CHICAGO -- It's one of the fastest growing industries in the United States, with 9.2 million cosmetic procedures performed in 2004 alone, according to the American Society of Plastic Surgery. And now Chicago area residents have access to one of the country's premier cosmetic surgery centers, MetropolitanMD, has expanded its superior list of services to include a host of non-invasive cosmetic procedures, along with a new name and new state-of-the-art new offices.

Formerly known as the Center for Liposculpture and Cosmetic Laser Surgery, MetropolitanMD partners Edward Lack, MD, and John Rachel, MD FACS, and Associate Joseph A. Franco are pleased to announce the grand opening of their new North Shore locations adjacent to 'The Glen' at 2350 Ravine Way, Suite 400, Glenview, IL 60025.

What's in a name? The name, MetropolitanMD, illustrates the professional flair and city style of their practice. It's where patients go to get a balanced blend of the latest trends in cosmetic services with traditional values and medical integrity in an office that is patient friendly and exceptionally accommodating.

"We work in such a cutting edge field, where it is crucial to constantly stay on top of the latest procedures and techniques so that we can bring that knowledge back to our patients," said Dr. Edward Lack. "Our new name and location represents a sort of professional 'makeover' for us, allowing us to expand our practice to offer the latest in non-invasive cosmetic while still offering what we're known for-the very best in traditional plastic and cosmetic surgery."

MetropolitanMD continues to offer traditional cosmetic surgery services including breast augmentation, liposculpture, and rhinoplasty. It is the only Chicago practice featuring three doctors that are all double board certified in complementing areas of specialization.

In addition to their traditional menu of services, new non-invasive cosmetic procedures will include customized programs including weekend facelifts, medical grade peels for superior skin rejuvenation, and injectibles that deliver proven results like Botox and Restalyne to banish forehead wrinkles, frown lines and crow's feet.

"Non-invasive cosmetic surgery has grown leaps and bounds in the past few years. Patients love the idea of an alternative that offers dramatic results without going under the knife and very little down time," said Lack. "And at MetropolitanMD it's important to us to be able to deliver the very best of these procedures to our clients."
