There is no fee for medspa consultations, including Botox, filler, and skincare. There is also no fee for any weight loss consultations.

This $100 is fully refundable if the appointment is cancelled or rescheduled with at least a 24-hour notice. Your $100 deposit can be applied towards the cost of your surgical procedure provided that surgery is scheduled within 6 months from the time of the consultation. Surgery beyond 6 months from the time of the initial consultation or for procedures not discussed in the original consultation would require another consultation and a $100 deposit.

More About Illume Cosmetic Surgery & Medspa
About Illume Cosmetic Surgery & Medspa
Illume Cosmetic Surgery & MedSpa was founded by local Milwaukee Plastic Surgeons Drs. Mark F. Blake, Thomas G. Korkos, and Christopher J. Hussussian in 2019. The merger of the two local practices provided an opportunity for our patients to see some of the top plastic surgeons in the Milwaukee region and have the widest scope of treatment options available.
Since the merger, we have grown to become the Milwaukee area’s largest cosmetic surgery and medspa practice, with offices in Franklin, Milwaukee, and Waukesha. We are also this market’s only cosmetic surgery practice equipped with three operating rooms. Our Waukesha clinic features a Medicare-certified operating room, and our Milwaukee clinic provides two operating rooms for added convenience for our patients. Whether our patients are at our in-house surgical suites, clinic rooms, or physician-supervised medpas, we are able to offer them the highest quality of care and the utmost comfort and privacy.
Our mission is to treat patients with the ultimate level of excellence in service and comprehensive care providing cosmetic and reconstructive outcomes that empower people with confidence and improve their quality of life.

Other Botox Treatments / Non-Cosmetic Botox Injections
Botox is not only known to make you look youthful and rejuvenated,help with migraines. It ranks first among prescribed branded treatments for chronic migraines.
Botox is also an effective treatment for excessive sweating, a condition known as hyperhidrosis. By targeting overactive sweat glands, Botox can significantly reduce sweating in areas like the underarms, hands, feet, and face. This treatment provides a lasting solution for those dealing with disruptive or embarrassing sweating, helping them feel more confident and at ease in their daily lives.
Lasting Results
For most patients, Botox typically lasts 3-4 months. As the effects wear off, you may schedule another Botox appointment to maintain a wrinkle-free and rejuvenated appearance.
Is Botox® FDA approved?
Trap Tox / Barbie Botox
Post Botox Procedure

Botox® is approved for adults 18 years and older. If you want to use Botox® as a preventative to lines and wrinkles, we recommend starting Botox® in your 20s or 30s. In your 40s and on, Botox® can treat lines and wrinkles and help make you look younger. The age at which you choose to receive Botox varies depending on the cosmetic results you desire.

A tummy tuck, also known as abdominoplasty, is a surgical procedure offered at Illume Cosmetic Surgery to restore a smoother, firmer midsection. This treatment removes excess skin and fat from the abdomen and can also repair weakened or separated abdominal muscles to create a more toned, contoured appearance.
This procedure is often chosen by individuals who have experienced pregnancy, significant weight loss, or age-related changes that leave behind loose skin and a protruding abdomen. Our board-certified plastic surgeons tailor each tummy tuck to your unique needs, with the goal of restoring balance, confidence, and comfort in your body.

Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) refines the eyelids’ form and function. It can be done on the upper lids, the lower lids, or both. It addresses excess fat that shows as under-eye puffiness, drooping or lax lower lids, extra skin in the lower lids, and loose or sagging tissue that changes the natural upper-lid contour and can sometimes narrow the visual field.
Many people choose it to reduce signs of aging. Others in their 20s or 30s seek it for inherited eyelid traits or early changes. The procedure is performed for both men and women.
