What Is Sculptra?
As they age, many people tend to notice a loss in volume, especially around the cheeks and mid-face, creating a flat or hollow look. At Iteld Plastic Surgery, we can address volume loss using Sculptra Aesthetic, a poly-L-lactic acid injectable dermal filler that allows for longer-lasting and deeper volume replacement in the mid-face. In addition to increasing the fullness of the cheeks, Sculptra can decrease the look of shallow to deep lines and wrinkles, including the nasolabial folds (sometimes called laugh or smile lines) that start at the outside of the nose and run down to the corners of the lips. With a unique formula approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Sculptra helps to increase the natural collagen production in your body so even if you stop injections, your complexion should be stronger compared to before the treatment. Schedule an appointment with Dr. Lawrence Iteld and our skin care professionals in Chicago, IL to discover the benefits of Sculptra injectable treatments.
How Does Sculptra Work?
During your consultation, we'll discuss the potential benefits of Sculptra for your skin and build out a customized treatment plan to help you attain your desired look. For the injections, we may start by applying a local anesthetic or numbing cream to minimize any discomfort you might feel. Once you are prepared, Sculptra will be injected deep beneath the skin around the selected areas of your face. For longer-lasting results, Dr. Iteld suggests a series of four Sculptra sessions at our Chicago, IL office, each done around three weeks apart.
What Are the Benefits of Sculptra?
Sculptra is a popular choice among dermal fillers because of its ability to stimulate collagen production for natural, long-lasting skin rejuvenation. Some of the other benefits of Sculptra include:
- Restores lost volume under the skin
- Revitalizes the skin for a glowing appearance
- Reduces lines, wrinkles, and creases
- No surgery, scars, or downtime
- Treatments are quick and involve little to no discomfort
- Effective and FDA-approved
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!
