    Plastic Surgery Highlights

    Rhinoplasty

    A rhinoplasty or “nose job” is a procedure that is performed to enhance the appearance and/or breathing function of the tip, nostrils, or bridge of your nose. Dr. Reilly is known for his natural-looking results, and he is passionate about providing his patients with the best possible outcomes.

    Septoplasty

    Nasal septal reconstruction surgery is a procedure that is performed to correct a crooked or “deviated” nasal septum, or the bone and cartilage between your nostrils. This medical procedure is typically covered by medical insurance benefits and helps to improve the function of your nose.

    Balloon Sinuplasty

    Balloon Sinuplasty

    A balloon sinuplasty is a procedure that is performed by inflating a small, flexible catheter into your blocked nasal passages to restructure and widen the walls of the sinus passageways. This procedure is done to reduce symptoms from chronic sinus obstruction.  Balloon sinuplasty typically involves only a day or two of post-procedural downtime and can be performed in the office with cutting-edge image-guidance equipment.

    • The greatest pleasure in my job is in helping people feel absolutely fantastic about themselves.

      Dr. Michael Reilly

    • Dr. Reilly is one of those rare doctors that can navigate both holistic and traditional medicine and come up with a customized approach for patients. My 34 year old organic hairdresser was pretty much bed ridden. She stated she spent 2 days “being treated like a lab rat” at a prestigious Chicago hospital and they still were unable to diagnose her problem. I recommended Dr. Reilly and within one week he diagnosed her, prescribed a regimen specific to her needs. Within a month she was back to running a mile, taking care of her family and more importantly doing my hair!!

    • What a transformation! I appear at least 20 years younger now, my face relaxed and completely natural, contours nicely defined. I’ve had a tremendous boost in confidence and morale and am accepting invitations and assignments I felt ‘too tired’ to take before.

    • His promptness is not a mark against him. He spends time with each client and does not rush them out of the door like many other doctors.

    • I hadn’t expected such a strong lift to my morale from my facelift. I am happier, more confident

    • Dr. Reilly is a highly-skilled surgeon with an artist’s vision. He truly cares about his patients and gives his best.

    • Before the lift, I had many wrinkles and a neck profile that had lost definition. My jowls sagged and my cheeks were hollow. What a transformation! I appear at least 20 years younger now, my face relaxed and completely natural, contours nicely defined. I’ve had a tremendous boost in confidence and morale and am accepting invitations and assignments I felt ‘too tired’ to take before

    • Before my blepharoplasty and brow lift with Dr. Reilly, my eyes had a tired expression. There were wrinkles between my eyebrows, as well as excess skin on my upper lids. Other wrinkles creased my forehead and the outer corners of my eyes. The tired look is gone, along with the deeper wrinkles. Only fine lines remain, consistent with my age.

    • I knew a more youthful appearance could be helpful in employment matters, but didn’t know how much it would affect my day-to-day interactions with others. People are happier to see my new face, and I routinely feel the difference. I look forward now to seeing myself in the mirror.

    • Before and after photos tell my story best. Ones taken after my lift match what was alive and well inside, and that inner vitality has been enhanced. I look truly “pulled together” now, because I am

    • My lifts were done by a highly-trained professional, deeply committed to quality. What he accomplished would be impossible by any other means. I no longer believe that world-class cosmetic surgery is a luxury. It is a high road to healing the inner and outer self.”
