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
I'm currently preparing for my upcoming breast lift surgery, so I'll follow up with results once it's done. For now, I can only comment on the professionalism of Dr. Iteld and his team. I initially considered another doctor but ultimately decided to cancel due to a series of mistakes leading up to the surgery. These included repeatedly losing my file, forgetting to date a prescription, sending appointment reminders for incorrect dates, providing me with the wrong quote, and--just three days before surgery--informing me it would cost $6,000 more due to an oversight.From the moment I walked into Dr. Iteld's beautiful office, the experience was completely different. I was warmly greeted by a professional receptionist, and the entire staff was incredibly friendly. It didn't feel like a place with a revolving door of part-time employees juggling college schedules. It was a well-organized, welcoming, and highly professional environment.Dr Iteld took his time with me and explained my options in detail. I also like the fact that they do not use narcotics for pain. Stay tuned!
I went to Dr. Iteld for breast augmentation and I couldn't be happier with the results. He gave me exactly what I wanted and I've never felt more confident. His team helped me every step of the way and made sure I was one-hundred percent sure and confident in my decision before we proceeded with the surgery. They let me come in multiple times to try on the sizers, until I finally felt confident with the size and look I wanted. Not to mention, Dr. Iteld's bedside manner is unmatched. I strongly recommend Dr. Iteld to anyone looking for cosmetic services. I will definitely be seeing him again in the future.
I recently underwent a plastic surgery procedure, and I'm excited to share my experience. From the moment I walked into the office, Dr. Iteld and his incredible team--Linda, Ashley, Kimmy, and Caryle--made me feel incredibly comfortable. They took the time to listen to my concerns and answer all my questions, which eased my nerves significantly. Dr. Iteld's sense of humor was a delightful surprise, he has a talent for making you laugh and feel at ease, even during what can be a stressful time. His light-hearted approach really helped me relax and trust the process.I interviewed four different doctors before making my decision, and I couldn't be happier with my choice. Dr. Iteld's professionalism, expertise, and genuine care truly stood out to me. His thorough explanations about what to expect at every stage of the process were reassuring, and I felt confident in my decision.The results of my surgery exceeded my expectations! I love how I look and feel now. The support from Linda, Ashley, Kimmy, and Caryle didn't stop after the procedure; they were available for any follow-up questions I had, which was a great comfort. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my results and the exceptional care I received from Dr. Iteld and his wonderful team. I highly recommend them to anyone considering plastic surgery!
