What Is Hyperpigmentation?
A common complexion issue many of our patients deal with is hyperpigmentation, a discoloration of the skin caused by an excess of melanin. These dark patches of skin can appear anywhere on the body or face and may vary in size and shape. While anyone can be affected by hyperpigmentation, it's especially common among older patients (who develop age spots from a lifetime of sun exposure) or pregnant women. Though this condition is generally harmless to your health, it can cause embarrassment and distress. At Iteld Plastic Surgery, we offer a solution for patients struggling with hyperpigmentation: noninvasive Alma Veil™ laser treatments. This cutting-edge system uses pulses of light energy to activate your body's collagen production, giving you a more even, radiant complexion over time. In just a few sessions, you can see a noticeable improvement in the texture and tone of your skin. To learn more about the causes of hyperpigmentation and your options for treating it, reach out to our office today to schedule a private consultation with Dr. Lawrence Iteld and our experienced skin care team in Chicago, IL.
How Do Hyperpigmentation Treatments Work?
Before your procedure gets underway, we'll apply a numbing cream to the treatment area to reduce any potential discomfort. We can also offer Pro-Nox™ for patients who are especially anxious about their treatment. Once you're ready, we'll have you relax as we pass the Alma Veil handpiece over your skin, warming up the deeper layers to promote collagen growth and lasting rejuvenation. The process is quick and simple and enables you to immediately get back to your routine — no downtime needed. You should begin to notice improvements after just one session, but most patients require 4 – 6 hyperpigmentation treatments at our Chicago, IL office to get the full results. As we build out your treatment plan, we'll discuss the number of sessions you're likely to need.
What Are the Benefits of Laser Hyperpigmentation Treatments?
While Alma Veil is an effective option for hyperpigmentation, it can also do so much more, addressing acne, spider fines, fine lines and wrinkles, and bruising, among other things. Some of the other benefits of Alma Veil laser skin treatments at Iteld Plastic Surgery include:
- Allows for precise, targeted treatments
- Can address a wide range of common skin imperfections
- Little to no discomfort during the procedure
- Safe for all skin types
- Minimal recovery with no downtime
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!!
