MORE ABOUT OUR MERGER
The new practice boasts two fully credentialed surgery centers and complete Medi-spas that feature aesthetic services, laser and light therapy, BOTOX Cosmetic, dermal fillers and more.
The size of the new group is one of the 25 largest Allergan BOTOX injectors in the country, and provides better pricing to patients and increased access for visits close to home. “We want to set the bar for the practice of cosmetic medicine in Milwaukee and make sure patients are seeing reputable and capable surgeons in modern and fully equipped facilities,” says Dr. Korkos.
Dr. Hussussian agrees, “Our merger allows both offices to provide their patients more convenience while maintaining the highest level of care and providing the best outcome possible. Our staff is dedicated to providing you with excellent care and friendly service in a confidential atmosphere. We pride ourselves on combining a professional consultation with realistic expectations of the changes that you would like to make to your appearance.
CERTIFIED SURGERY CENTERS
The American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities (AAAASF), the Accreditation on Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC), and Medicare (CMS) all certify our centers according to rigorous national requirements on safety, emergency preparedness, staff credentials, and more. By obtaining and adhering to these standards, you can be assured you are having your procedure done at a surgical center that is qualified and capable.
CHOOSING A PLASTIC SURGEON
“Went to their Waukesha office and had a wonderful experience. The esthetician was so kind and guided me towards the service that was best for my skin, not just the most expensive option. I felt like she really wanted what was best for me.”
– Rebecca A.
“Highly highly recommend seeing Dr. Blake for any consultation! I have only had great experiences with him! He is a board certified plastic surgeon to say the least, highly intelligent, patient, very picky (I felt as though he was a perfectionist) and SO approachable. Overall, this clinic has such a caring staff and are very professional! 10/10.”
– Allison
“I had an amazing experience with Dr Hussussian. My results are exactly what we discussed. The consults, plastic surgery and follow-ups have all been 5 star. He is warm, friendly, professional and I highly recommend him.”
– Diane P.
