Dr. Dickie

Dr. Dickie hails from the midwestern town of Saugatuck, Michigan. Spending summers on the beaches of Lake Michigan meant that she, like many of us, now suffers from the after-effects of radiant sun damage.

After plastic surgery training at the University of Chicago, she moved to the north shore of Chicago to develop a skin-focused reconstructive surgery practice. An American Board of Plastic Surgery certified plastic surgeon; her work focuses mainly on surgical diseases of the skin such as skin cancer, melanoma, birthmarks and scars. Her aesthetic practice includes treatments using Botox, Hyaluronic Acid Fillers and surgical body contouring. 

Her treatment of the surgical skin needs of newborns to great grandmothers inspired an interest educating patients and promoting the life-long care of the skin. While we all get wrinkles and some have scars, we are each a unique culmination of our life experience. For that, we should put our best face forward! A healthy skin routine can protect a person from future cancer while generating a healthy glow, reducing the need for make-up.

Collaborating with the talented Stephanie Svec puts this belief into practice. The One Magnificent Medspa team of skin professionals helps not only to maintain beautiful skin, but also enhance and radiate one’s true beauty.
