Finding the right injector is one of the most important decisions you will make when considering aesthetic treatments. While injectables are non-surgical, they require advanced knowledge of facial anatomy, precise technique, and an eye for balance to achieve natural, refined results. At SkinPerfected, with offices in Woodridge and Hinsdale, our providers bring over 20 years of experience in dermatology and aesthetic medicine to every treatment we perform.
Why Experience Matters
Even the most advanced injectable products depend on the skill of the person administering them. An experienced injector knows how to create results that complement your features while prioritizing safety at every step. Proper assessment, treatment planning, and technique can minimize risks and produce results that look both natural and lasting.
Our team, led by Shannon Morrow, PA-C, has performed thousands of aesthetic procedures. Shannon is also a National AMI Trainer for Allergan, the makers of Botox Cosmetic and Juvederm injectable hyaluronic acid fillers. As a National AMI Trainer, she holds a distinction few achieve—one among nearly 500 elite faculty members nationwide selected by Allergan Aesthetics to elevate aesthetic medicine education through hands-on clinics, immersive training centers, and advanced online programs. This limited—and rigorously chosen—group underscores a profound commitment to excellence in technique, patient safety, and clinical leadership. When you’re considering which aesthetic injector to trust, choosing someone with National AMI Trainer status means opting for a practitioner recognized not only for skill but for leadership and dedication to elevating the field itself.
What to Look for in an Injector
Training and Credentials: Seek out injectors with advanced, specialized training in aesthetic medicine and years of hands-on experience.
Before-and-After Photos: Reviewing examples of a provider’s work will help you see if their style aligns with your vision.
Patient Reviews: Feedback from other patients can provide insight into a provider’s approach, communication, and results.
Commitment to Ongoing Education: The best injectors continuously refine their skills and stay current with the latest techniques and technologies.
How to Research a Provider
A practice’s website can give you valuable information about an injector’s background, training, and services. Online reviews can offer a first-hand look at patient experiences. Choosing a provider that has their credentials listed on their website is key (if they are not listed, that is a red flag!), and also ask if they are purchasing their injectable products from the pharmaceutical companies directly to ensure no counterfeit products are being utilized.
Scheduling a consultation is one of the most important steps. Meeting in person allows you to discuss your goals, review before-and-after results, and ask questions about their approach. It also gives you the opportunity to see if you feel comfortable and confident in their care.
