What Is RADIESSE?
Thanks to advances in aesthetic treatments, you now have more options than ever when it comes to dermal fillers. One popular dermal filler treatment offered at Iteld Plastic Surgery is RADIESSE, an effective solution for individuals who want to address mild and moderate wrinkles on the face or hands. Patients who don't have a lot of time for frequent touch-ups appreciate the lasting results (over a year in many cases) of RADIESSE. With microspheres of calcium hydroxyapatite in a water-based gel, RADIESSE fills and smoothes the appearance of your face without surgery. RADIESSE is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to effectively and safely volumize your facial features. It can also be used in tandem with other cosmetic treatments for a custom procedure plan that restores your skin. To learn more about how RADIESSE dermal fillers can help you attain a younger, more confident look, reach out to Iteld Plastic Surgery in Chicago, IL and schedule a skin care consultation with Dr. Lawrence Iteld and our talented team of providers.
How Does RADIESSE Work?
RADIESSE injections are performed in our office's private treatment rooms and generally take 30 – 60 minutes. To begin the treatment, you will lie back comfortably while the areas of injection are cleaned and marked. Most patients feel only mild discomfort throughout their treatment at the initial injection, but if preferred, a local anesthetic can be used on the treatment sites. The RADIESSE dose, chosen at your consultation, will be placed in a fine syringe. The marked injection sites will help guide the injector to carefully administer RADIESSE into the face. As soon as the treatment is done, a cold compress will be held to the treated areas to help minimize swelling and bruising.
What Are the Benefits of Radiesse?
At Iteld Plastic Surgery in Chicago, IL, we meet with many patients who are interested in the skin rejuvenating effects of different cosmetic injectables but aren't interested in the maintenance required to keep up their results. For our patients who want longer-lasting injections, RADIESSE has a number of benefits to offer, including:
- Smooth and natural-looking outcomes
- Smoothing out fine lines and wrinkles
- Outcomes can last a year or longer
- Enhancing your self-confidence
Iteld Plastic Surgery Reviews
Wonderful team - could not be happier with the results - I had a great experience. Dr. Iteld and his team treated me with respect, were compassionate towards my concerns, and were very thorough in their explanations of what to expect and the step by step process for preparing and recovering from surgery. Staff offered after hours support for any concerns that may have arisen post surgery (thankfully I’ve had none) and treated me very well. I could not be happier with the results of my surgery and the care provided by Dr. Iteld and his team. Dr. Iteld and his team were very inclusive towards the lgbtq+ community, always using my preferred name and pronouns and has performed many of these surgeries. Queer folks looking for gender affirming surgery are in good hands here.
I recently underwent a breast reduction surgery, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! Dr. Itedl, Kimmy, and the receptionist Ashley were incredibly professional, guiding me through every step and addressing all of my concerns. The surgery itself went smoothly, and the recovery process was much easier than I anticipated. I’m 5’3 and 120lbs with an original cup size of a G. Dr. Itedl nailed the shape and areola size of my breast to match perfectly to my frame. One of the biggest benefits has been the relief from upper back, neck, and lower back pain, which was the main reason I opted for the procedure. The results look so natural, and the scars are already starting to fade. If you’re considering breast reduction surgery, I highly recommend it. It has been truly life-changing for me. The outcome has been everything I hoped for and more!
Kimmy is a phenomenal injector and is extremely knowledgeable about PRF/EZ Gel, energy based treatments, scarring, and her insight and education about facial anatomy, the aging process, and treating general cosmetic concerns for various ethnic skin types is extensive and surpasses any other injector I’ve encountered before. She is warm, patient, very empathetic, and I always feel fully heard and cared for during my appointments. She is so friendly, dedicated and passionate about what she does, and she truly shines in her role. Iteld Plastic Surgery (and her patients) are so lucky to have her! She’s a true gem! Keep up the good work!
I have made an appointment for a consultation with Dr. Iteld. First, as most should know, liposuction is NOT for weight loss, but "body conturing", though after a procedure, "minimal" weight loss may occur. Secondly, it is important that good research should be done BEFORE considering this procedure. DO NOT SETTLE for just anyone. Dr. Iteld is a highly accredited plastic surgeon. Even before making my appointment, I was extremely impressed by the patient, kind, informative and professional attention from one of his staff members. Rarely does one find such people these days. So, whether I am a candidate for this procedure or not, and especially as a retired medical professional, myself, I can honestly say, I KNOW I chose the right professional and staff, who are in a beautiful setting with plenty of parking. Good luck to all who are interested in an appropriate surgeon and procedure !
I had an incredible experience at Iteld Plastic Surgery, thanks to Kimmy! She took so much time with me, ensuring that I felt comfortable and understood every step of the process. Her attention to detail is unmatched—she’s meticulous and thorough, making me feel confident and ready for my wedding day. On top of that, Kimmy is soooo sweet and a pleasure to be around! I can’t recommend her and the office enough!
