CHICAGO BOTOX SPECIALISTS
Live, laugh, love — and develop a few facial lines along the way. That’s the way life goes, right? While wrinkles may happen to nearly all of us, that doesn’t mean you have to live with them. BOTOX® has been clinically proven to dramatically improve the appearance of crow’s feet, frown lines and forehead lines, so it’s not surprising that it’s been used by millions of women and men.
Are you thinking about BOTOX®? Maybe one of your friends or coworkers has used it and now looks amazing. Maybe you want to look a little younger or simply feel more confident day to day. Whatever the reason, you’re considering this popular treatment and asking, “can I get BOTOX® near me?”
BOTOX® Reduces Facial Lines
Put simply, BOTOX® (also known as botulinum toxin A) is injected under the skin where it blocks nerve signals that tell muscles to contract and relaxes areas of muscular tension. The result is a softening of the lines we associate with aging, resulting in a smoother and younger-looking complexion. BOTOX® is most commonly used on the following parts of the face:
- Crow’s feet, or lines in the corners of the eyes
- Forehead lines, also called forehead rows
- Glabellar lines, or vertical lines above the nose
- Nasolabial folds, also called smile lines or laugh lines
What to Expect with BOTOX®: Before and After
Knowing what to expect can help alleviate any nervousness about your first treatment. After carefully examining your face to determine the best injection sites, a medical professional will use a fine needle to inject a small amount of BOTOX® into specific muscles. The process only takes a few minutes and no anesthesia is required. Most people say any discomfort is minimal. There’s also no downtime. You can get on with your day post-treatment.
Concerned about BOTOX® side effects? The most common side effects of BOTOX® are mild bruising and pain at the injection sites. Some patients also have flu-like symptoms, fatigue or muscle aches. It can also cause drooping of the eyelid or eyebrow, but these side effects are rare.

Fanstastic place to get lasered – as a medical professional, it’s nice to be treated where they are knowledgeable, professional, and of course reasonably priced. Catalina is fantastic. the laser treatment works very well, the equipment is up to date, the place is clean and relaxing.
Catalina is amazing. I want to try everything she recommends! Great service. Competitive pricing. Easy to get to. And…results!!
Literally not a bad word to say about Lapiel. Razors have long been the bane of my existence, but no more thanks to Catalina. Less painful than waxing, less of a hassle than shaving, and more effective than both, laser hair removal rocks the house.
As a veteran of too many Laser Hair Removal places in Chicago, my only complaint about LAPIEL is that I didn’t find them sooner.
Catalina is fantastic. She’s very open and honest about the entire procedure, and I didn’t feel like I was being oversold.
I have been to 4 other places in Chicago and LA for laser over the years and no one compares to Lapiel. This is the only place that has truly worked! They know what they’re doing and take such great care and precaution to ensure they treat patients safely and effectively.
The entire experience at Lapiel was fantastic and relaxing. Plus, I’ve never enjoyed a skincare line as much as the Eminence products and I never would have gotten them without Julie’s recommendations.
I had terrible underarm ingrown hairs. I FINALLY decided I was too old for that nonsense and chose Lapiel for laser hair removal. I wish I wouldn’t have waited so long!!
I work as a professional cosmetologist and value good service and technical skills because I know my clients expect that from me. I recommend La Piel Laser Center to everyone who is looking for great laser hair removal and Botox.
