The quick guide I give my own patients
I’m Maria, one of the injectors at Trio Med Spa, and this is the straight answer I share every week with clients from Glenview, Northbrook, and Glencoe: fillers and Sculptra both rejuvenate, but they do it differently. Here’s how we decide together.
When I recommend hyaluronic acid fillers
- Instant smoothing for smile lines and lip shaping before a night at The Glen Town Center.
- Contouring for cheeks or jawline when you want a quick, camera‑ready refresh.
- Flexibility—we can fine‑tune or dissolve if needed. We use trusted families like Juvéderm, RHA and Restylane.
When I recommend Sculptra
- Gradual, collagen‑stimulating volume that builds over months—great for softening hollows or a subtly lifted look for that garden party near the Chicago Botanic Garden.
- Long‑lasting improvement that supports skin quality as it restores structure.
How we choose together
- We talk timelines—do you need results for a Ravinia concert next week, or are you planning ahead for fall photos in Clarkson Park?
- We review budget and maintenance.
- We may blend approaches—strategic filler for instant polish plus Sculptra for deeper, longer‑term support.
Why Trio Med Spa
- Experienced, artful injectors who work only with evidence‑based treatments like Botox, Dysport, fillers, Sculptra, and more.
- Signature combinations like BBL + CoolPeel for texture and tone if skin quality is your top concern.
- Convenient Northfield location at 200 Northfield Road, Suite #1, a few minutes off I‑94 and close to the Skokie Lagoons.
