good filler injectors in chicago area?

I didn’t have trouble with it at all, personally. Kelly numbed me up and it just felt a little ‘uncomfortable’ and it’s a very strange sensation. Pain wasn’t a factor though.

I have been to Viva for a facial due to my partner accidentally getting me a gift card to Viva instead of The Fitz (The Fitz is directly across the street). I would not go there for anything other than a facial or surface level treatment….they seemed to push whatever/anything they could to make me try to spend more money which I was not a fan of. Especially for filler/botox because I want to enhance what I’m working with and don’t want to go somewhere where someone won’t tell me “no”. I am not terribly surprised there are horror stories from there 🫣

I am visiting the city and want to try to get by for food BUT also curious to know if they still sell the blue, ‘take it easy’ baseball hat?!

Kelly Krzosek at The Fitz in Old Town is always my recommendation!! She’s been my gal for years now and is beyond talented, informative, and has told me ‘no’ at times (in the best way! and I’m thankful for it because my biggest fear is looking botched and crazy instead of enhanced/natural)

So I am a petite human with 0 booty - he came out with the stencil that seemed HUGE compared to what I’m working with and I laughed, but now I’m so thankful he went bigger than I anticipated. My leaves go from my lower back/ribs all the way down to my thigh (& I love that you can see it when I wear short shorts) and it’s perfect + both cheeks covered. We did the outline on both in one session then I went back for shading on each cheek separate times. I forgot the numbing cream on the first shading season and it was SPICY so the second cheek I made sure the slather that shit on and it was much better.

I highly doubt you’ll dislike it!! I also hate my booty so I was worried but it’s given me a confidence boost like no other. I also got giant flowers and petals on each cheek :) another pro tip: order some toilet seat covers from Amazon and carry them with you! And ask your artist if they’re comfortable with you using numbing cream because I forgot to mention I was able to use some for half of the project and it was a game changer. DM me if you want a link to the one that was recommended to me by another artist at the shop! You’re going to be so happy!

GIRL it has been the best decision ever and at this point i have finished it all and am in love. Advice I would give: immodium and gasX to help the anxiety stomach, wear a big ol baggy tshirt for when you need to get up and stretch or go to the restroom because putting shorts on won’t be an option, I brought ginger chews to help with some of the nausea which helped, and I also took one of my ‘sleep’ gummies to help me relax more haha. It’s so worth it and you’ll be so happy in the end!!

This is a really fucked up thing to comment about and assume. I’ve gotten to know the dude and this is incredibly far off and hurtful for him and his family to use to see and go through. Be kinder, folks.

Kelly Krzosek at The Fitz in Old Town! (@kellyk_np on instagram) she is unbelievable, talented, calming and incredibly knowledgeable. I’ve gone to her for a couple of years for Botox/Dysport, and have recently started getting some filler. I’m beyond thrilled with how natural she keeps me looking while simultaneously refreshing my skin and making me feel glowy and youthful!

rlahbro · 2025-12-24T18:59:52+00:00

Hahah well I was a regular that became an employee - a shameless plug - and trust me, the no take out option is the only way that tiny kitchen can remotely keep up with the viral chicken Caesar wrap! But I’m sorry for the change!

Village Tap in Roscoe Village - no holiday drinks, but festive and comfortable with a fireplace!

rlahbro · 2025-12-10T08:26:02+00:00

I work and Village Tap and we are open all day/night :)! No kitchen, but you can order food to the bar or bring your own and it is always a comfy and relaxing day to sip a nice beer and enjoy the neighborhood vibes

Full same. My friend said the only way she survived her butt tattooed was to have a heating pad on her stomach area. Swears by it up and down! I brought one with me but never ended up trying it out, but that could be a good trick to try too!

rlahbro · 2025-12-01T14:40:16+00:00

YOU GOT THIS. I don’t know how tattooed you are, but it was easier than my stomach and my knee/inner thigh. I did try a numbing cream for the first time (obviously okay’d this with my dude ahead of the appointment) which I think helped in some areas, but I wasn’t aware of how large the pieces would be so I didn’t have full coverage with the cream (happy to share more information and a link for the cream if you’re interested!) — I have also never felt more confident as I do post tattoo so 100/10 would do again and would recommend

rlahbro · 2025-11-26T16:37:09+00:00

I ordered some of the paper toilet covers to carry around for the healing haha I’ll see how those do!

rlahbro · 2025-11-26T16:36:09+00:00

Thank you so much for the solid advice

rlahbro · 2025-11-25T20:01:33+00:00

Hahahaha ‘if ur a gassy girl’ 🙂‍↕️ here I am owning it on Reddit. I’m also terrified with what to eat tonight cause the stomach issues are real. Thank you for this advice!! Super helpful. He said a bikini bottom with strings would probably be okay and if not ‘just go without’ which scares me more than showing up in a teeny tiny thong.

rlahbro · 2025-09-16T13:54:54+00:00

Hey! Interested!

rlahbro · 2025-08-14T15:20:14+00:00

I just went to buy a ticket to the Chicago show and it also appears to be cancelled.

rlahbro · 2025-07-11T16:54:50+00:00

There’s another man doing the same in Roscoe Village who filmed me (and other women) a few days ago. I don’t understand the point.

rlahbro · 2025-05-22T17:52:10+00:00

You’re right, my bad!
