The practice of surgical medicine requires a mastery of both academic and technical skills. The plastic surgical subspecialty progresses further to demand an artistic vision as well. Helping you to both visualize and realize your cosmetic goals, depends on a close working relationship between you and your surgeon. I am sincere in my personal approach to each patient to understand expectations, formulate reasonable goals, and as closely as possible, make these goals a reality. I can't recall how I got referred to Dr. Stefani, I think it was a Dermatologist I was seeing but I've been seeing him for a few years now and he is wonderful!

Sun stimulation of the skin produces a change that many people want, "a healthy tan". This sun tan is not healthy, but a warning that the skin has been damaged. Ignore repeated warnings and you can end up with wrinkles, age spots and worst of all, skin cancer. The sun produces ultraviolet light and these ultraviolet rays penetrate the skin causing damage.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr Stefani and his staff. He took the time to explain in detail what he would be doing during my 3 stage reconstructive ear surgery. He always answers all my questions, and reassures me when I might be nervous about the procedure. I would highly recommend him. His office staff is wonderful, ready to greet you when you walk in with a big smile on their faces.

From initial phone call to setup consultation to the final check up visit, the very knowledgeable Dr. Stefani and his ENTIRE staff are second to NONE. They eliminated the nervousness of surgery with their professionalism and care. The surgery went exactly as Dr. Stefani explained. I'd highly recommend his office to anyone. Thanks!

Dr. Stefani performed two separate surgeries on me after mohs for SC I am 48yo female and having my nose have a hole in it was very frightening. He was amazing. Very skilled, explains everything visually and communicates it all clearly. I never felt rushed, he answered all my millions of questions, followed up personally with me more than once after each surgery.
And gave clear instructions for after care. A year later and when other drs. Hear what I had done they are amazed at his work. I am very pleased. I had several nurses and the anesthesiologist tell me that Dr. Stefani was the physician that did THEIR plastic surgeries. I don't think anything could have put me more at ease than knowing his colleagues choose him for their own work!

Dr Stefani is excellent in all ways. He is skilled, knowledgeable, kind, caring/concerned, efficient and explains what is/will be done from the first visit, through surgery, to the last visit. He tells you what to expect, what is normal and what is not as well as what is probable. He is clear and concise and his entire staff is friendly, efficient and helpful.
I have gone to other plastic surgeons and Dr Stefani is by far the best. My visit to him concerned a cancerous spot on my face and within an amazingly short post operative period of time the scar is invisible. I can not recommend his practice highly enough.

Dr. Stefani is the best. He takes all the time needed to make you feel comfortable with the procedure. He and his team followup after the procedure and make you feel cared for and valued. I recommend him and his whole team. If I had a daughter I would send her to him if she wanted anything done.5 Stars.

I was referred to Dr. Stefani from a friend who praised him highly. I agree. He is one of the most professional plastic surgeons in the metropolitan area. His office is not pretentious, his staff is efficient and friendly and he talked me out of additional procedures I was seeking because of the risk. How refreshing! And the follow-up after the surgery is the frosting on the cake.
Some metropolitan media publications' plastic surgeon advertising seems more like a "doctors to the Hollywood stars" and I find that unappealing. I had two small procedures, both with which I am completely satisfied. Please include a consultation with Dr. Stefani among those of other plastic surgeons in the Chicagoland area before you commit to surgery. I found Dr. Stefani to be highly ethical and extremely skilled.

My plastic surgeon for many years retired and moved to Florida (She was out of Resurrection Hospital). I can't recall how I got referred to Dr Stefani, I think it was a Dermatologist I was seeing but I've been seeing him for a few years now and he is wonderful! His office staff is among the most friendly and accommodating I've experienced in Doctor's offices. Dr Stefani is always on time for his appointments, there is never a long wait - you're in and out and he gives you full attention during your time there.
I never feel rushed and everything is explained fully, in terms we all understand - not on a doctor's level. I've had in office procedures done, and a procedure done at Elmhurst Hospital and everything has been perfect. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a Plastic Surgeon.

I returned to Dr Stefani's office on July 9th for botox and restylane. This man is an artist! He really knows just where to place the injections for amazing results. I am thrilled with what he has done to turn back the clock for me. He also will not let me get carried away (As I do with everything) THANKFULLY Or I would look like Joan Rivers today!
Great guy and fabulous doctor! If you are a first timer for fillers and botox, he is your man. He explains everything and has a great calming personality in case you are nervous. I had no bruising and minimal swelling that is gone the next day, a testament to his skill in injecting. I love Dr Stefani Another 10+ STARS Another 10 years younger :)
