What Is CO2 Skin Resurfacing?
At Iteld Plastic Surgery, we pride ourselves on offering some of the most cutting-edge options for skin rejuvenation in Chicago, IL. One of those options is CO2 skin resurfacing using the Alma Hybrid® system. This groundbreaking technology is the first of its kind to combine an ablative CO2 laser with a non-ablative 1570nm laser to stimulate your body's production of collagen without the risk of damaging the top layer of your skin. Alma Hybrid can treat a wide range of concerns, including age spots, roughness, sagging, scars, and more. On top of that, the Hybrid laser gives Dr. Lawrence Iteld and our team an unparalleled level of control over your resurfacing treatment, making it a great option for most types of skin. To learn more about CO2 skin resurfacing with Alma Hybrid, reach out to our friendly team and schedule your private consultation.
How Does CO2 Skin Resurfacing Work?
Your CO2 skin resurfacing treatment at our Chicago, IL practice will start with the application of a numbing cream to the treatment area to reduce any discomfort you may feel. If you're still concerned about any potential pain, we also offer Pro-Nox™ to help keep you relaxed and comfortable. Once you're ready, we'll slowly pass the Alma Hybrid applicator over your skin, heating up the lower layers to stimulate collagen production for lasting rejuvenation. Depending on the details of your treatment, we may use multiple wavelengths of light to address various skin imperfections on the surface. Afterward, you can expect your skin to be pink and sensitive, similar to a light sunburn. This will pass, but you can stay comfortable using over-the-counter painkillers and cold compresses. As the collagen in your skin goes to work, you'll start to notice a more refreshed complexion with improvements in the appearance of fine lines, hyperpigmentation, and other concerns.
What Are the Benefits of CO2 Skin Resurfacing?
CO2 resurfacing at Iteld Plastic Surgery offers a nonsurgical solution for patients who want to address a variety of skin issues with benefits that include:
- Boosts production of collagen for natural rejuvenation
- Improves the skin's tone and texture
- Lessens the appearance of scars and sun spots
- Smoothes and firms the skin for a more youthful appearance
- Minimizes the look of fine lines and wrinkles
- Nonsurgical approach offers a shorter recovery time than other treatments
Iteld Plastic Surgery Reviews
The entire staff here was so amazing, I cannot recommend them enough! I had top surgery with Dr. Iteld and he, and the entire staff, were extremely welcoming, kind, and so supportive every step of the way. They are extremely affirming and take the time to make sure you have all your questions answered and feel comfortable. I had never had any surgery before and everyone at this location made me feel so at ease. And my results are AMAZING! I am so grateful to Dr. Iteld and his entire team for going above and beyond to help me through this process and for giving me a chest that I love! I truly cannot thank everyone enough for what they have given me.
A way less stressful experience than I could've imagined - I couldn't recommend Dr. Iteld more after my experience. After hours of research online from other people going through top surgery, I was very worried about the pain and recovery process. To my surprise, it was nearly painless and a way less stressful experience than I could've imagined thanks to his methods. I'm a very anxious person, but him and his team always made me feel at ease and I had every opportunity for easy communication to answer any of my questions or concerns, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Thank you again!
Kimmy has been amazing at Dr. Iteld's office. she genuinely cares about her patients and never pushes products or procedures. I have never had someone be so helpful in answering my questions and pointing me in the right direction. She is so kind and great at what she does. Could not recommend her enough! All of Dr. Iteld's staff are so friendly!
Dr. Iteld and his staff are very passionate about their job. I received amazing results and care. I will definitely return for any further service.
I’ve been going to Dr. Iteld’s office for skin treatments for the past few years and would not go anywhere else in Chicago! Entire staff is fantastic. Kimmy is absolutely amazing to work with and I trust her completely with my skin. She’s extremely thorough and patient and truly cares about making sure her patients are relaxed and comfortable during treatments. I always look forward to appointments with her!!
