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

Iteld Plastic Surgery Reviews
My top surgery experience with Dr. Iteld was seamless. Each person handling every step of the process was well-informed and knowledgeable. They made me feel comfortable and coached me through with finesse. A well-oiled machine. I love my results. Thank you to everyone involved for everything.
If you want the best team and some of the best work I have seen, this is the place to go. Every single staff member has been nothing but absolutely amazing through my brother’s whole process. Linda, Caryle, Ashley, and Kimmie have been absolutely so sweet and fantastic. Their customer service has been phenomenal and unmatched. Dr. Iteld is truly an amazing doctor. He takes time with his patients and makes sure that they are 110% comfortable and that they understand ALL work that will be done and is so honest and real about the results. His work is incredible. Thank you so much to the whole team for providing a truly amazing experience for my brother. Couldn’t have picked a better office!!!!!
I had a fantastic experience with the entire team here. From consultation to surgery to follow-up after care, I felt I was in good hands. I'm extremely happy with my results. I'd highly recommend Dr. Iteld
I went to Dr Iteld for a breast reduction. He and his team made me feel immediately at easy. They offer their expertise to answer all your questions, and made the process as easy as possible, from prep to surgery to recovery. I was shocked how easy my recovery was! I love that I now feel I have proportionate breasts to my body for the first time ever!
Dr. Iteld and his associates have been nothing short of amazing! Everything has gone so well. I almost went with a different surgeon, but after so many issues along the way, my gut told me it wasn't right. I found Dr. Iteld through RealSelf and Google searches and looking at his work and after meeting him and his team, I just felt so much more comfortable. The surgery went incredibly well. I did not need any painkillers at all not even Tylenol. It was virtually pain-free. I had a breast lift with a very small implant to keep the size and the scars are very minimal and I'm so happy! My breasts are perfect! So even and just the right shape and size!!
