What’s New at Illume in 2026

The past year has been busy for us at Illume Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa. We’ve added a new location, welcomed a new surgeon, expanded our medical weight loss options, and introduced advanced skin revitalization technology.

If you have been waiting for the “right moment” to refresh your look, support your health, or find a location closer to home, here is what is new at Illume in 2026.

A New Location in Mukwonago

We are excited to now be seeing patients at our fifth location in Mukwonago.

Illume Mukwonago
111 N Rochester St, Suite 3
Mukwonago, WI 53149

This clinic brings our surgical expertise and medspa services closer to patients in Mukwonago, East Troy, Eagle, Waterford, and the surrounding communities. At this location, you can:

  • Meet with our team for medspa treatments and advanced skin care services
  • Start a physician-supervised weight loss program with Semaglutide or Tirzepatide injections
  • Schedule surgical consultations for face, body, or breast procedures

Our goal in Mukwonago is the same as in Franklin, Milwaukee, Waukesha, and Menomonee Falls: a welcoming, comfortable space where you feel heard, supported, and cared for from your first appointment through follow-up.

Welcoming Dr. Kayla E. Adkins

We are also thrilled to introduce Dr. Kayla E. Adkins, our newest plastic surgeons. Dr. Adkins is a board-eligible plastic surgeon and fellowship-trained microsurgeon who has returned to her home state of Wisconsin to join the Illume team.

Her background includes:

A six-year integrated residency in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Albert Einstein College of Medicine / Montefiore Medical Center in New York City

A specialized fellowship in Microvascular Reconstructive Surgery at the University of Pennsylvania

Honors in research for her work in wound healing modulation during her training at the University of Wisconsin

Dr. Adkins provides comprehensive care in both aesthetic and reconstructive surgery of the face and body, including microvascular reconstruction for patients with cancer, trauma, and complex wounds. Patients appreciate her combination of meticulous technical skill, artistic eye, and warm, down-to-earth bedside manner.

Welcoming Dr. Kinney

We are also proud to highlight Dr. Thomas Kinney, a board-certified plastic surgeon and fellowship-trained microsurgeon on the Illume team. Dr. Kinney is certified by the American Board of Plastic Surgery and is a member of several prestigious professional organizations, including the American Society of Plastic Surgeons and the Wisconsin Society of Plastic Surgery.

His background includes:

  • Medical training at the Medical College of Wisconsin, where he also served as chief resident
  • Advanced fellowship training in Microsurgery
  • Specialized expertise in Breast Reconstruction, Microsurgery, and Head and Neck Reconstruction

In addition to his reconstructive work, Dr. Kinney performs a wide range of cosmetic procedures, including Breast Augmentation, Liposuction, and Abdominoplasty. He is one of only a handful of surgeons in Wisconsin offering highly specialized microsurgical techniques, allowing him to provide advanced, individualized care for complex cases.

Next-Generation Weight Loss Options

Our Weight Loss & Wellness offerings continue to grow as new medications and research become available. We now provide several physician-supervised options, including:

  • Semaglutide
  • Tirzepatide
  • Retatrutide
  • Phentermine and additional wellness support when appropriate

Semaglutide and Tirzepatide remain two of our most popular choices for patients who want steady, medically guided weight loss with regular check-ins and nutrition support.

The newest addition is Retatrutide, a next-generation triple agonist that activates GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors. Early clinical data show an average 24–26% reduction in body weight at 48 weeks, along with improvements in metabolic health, insulin sensitivity, and markers of inflammation. Retatrutide is designed to boost metabolic rate, enhance fat oxidation, help preserve lean muscle, and support overall cardiometabolic health.

For eligible patients who enroll in our Retatrutide program, monthly pricing (four injections per month) is:

  • Low dose (≤ 4.99 mg): $530 per month
  • Middle dose (5–9.99 mg): $780 per month
  • High dose (10 mg+): $920 per month

Dosing is personalized based on your health history, response, and side effects, not just cost. During your consultation, we will also review how Retatrutide compares to Semaglutide and Tirzepatide, so you can choose the option that makes the most sense for your goals.

Where Illume Is Today, and How We Can Help You in 2026

As we step into 2026, here is a quick snapshot of Illume:

  • Five locations: Franklin, Milwaukee/Glendale, Waukesha, Menomonee Falls, and Mukwonago
  • A growing team of plastic surgeons and medspa providers, including Dr. Adkins
  • Full-service medspas offering injectables, laser treatments, and advanced skin care
  • Expanded Weight Loss & Wellness programs, including next-generation options like Retatrutide

Most importantly, our philosophy has not changed. We still believe in honest consultations, natural-looking results, and care plans that fit real life, not just a before-and-after photo.

When you are ready, Illume’s team is there to help you map out the next step, from subtle glow-up tweaks to bigger surgical plans that align with your goals for the year ahead.
