About Leslie Forrester, APRN

Leslie Forrester, APRN, is a nurse practitioner injector and the head of Wrinkle Fairy, which has locations in Arlington Heights, Gold Coast Chicago, Oakbrook Terrace, and Naperville, Illinois. Leslie comes from a long line of doctors, scientists, famous musicians, composers, artists, and opera singers. She carries the legacy of her multi-talented family into her professional life, having been inspired early on by art, science, and medicine.

As the daughter of a prominent Chicago cosmetic surgeon, Leslie grew up with a passion for cosmetic medicine. For her, dinner table conversations were often peppered with words like 'liposuction' and 'vein removal.' While most of her school friends took family trips to Florida for spring break, she traveled to Paris along with her father so that he could learn the latest advancements in cosmetic medicine. In grade school, Leslie had been teased relentlessly that her dad sucked the fat out of people. Ironically, many of those bullies would later become his patients and ask for the same procedures.

Now, after over twenty years in the business of cosmetic medicine, Leslie's passion speaks for itself. She firmly believes that she inherited her drive and abilities from her father and those that came before. Leslie prides herself on her capacity to create exquisite lips, erase years of wrinkles, and restore youthfulness to the skin without breaking a sweat. Her craft's beauty lies in the fact that it is both a science and an art, and a skilled practitioner like Leslie can use the potential of cosmetic medicine to create masterpieces. For Leslie, her practice is more than skin deep.
