What Is Laser Skin Resurfacing?
Laser skin resurfacing is a noninvasive cosmetic treatment that utilizes pulsating beams of light to exfoliate damaged surface skin cells one layer at a time. This state-of-the-art procedure is effective for reducing facial wrinkles and lines and for minimizing common skin imperfections, such as acne scars, pigmentation, and other concerns. Also called a laser peel, laser skin resurfacing is considered an effective treatment for people who want clearer, softer, younger-looking skin. At Iteld Plastic Surgery, we perform laser skin resurfacing using the Candela™ Nordlys® and Alma Hybrid® systems, both of which offer advanced customization options to give you the best results. To learn more about laser skin resurfacing and other skin rejuvenation solutions offered at our Chicago, IL office, reach out to schedule your private consultation with Dr. Lawrence Iteld and our skilled aesthetic providers.
How Does Laser Skin Resurfacing Work?
Before starting your procedure, a member of our team will apply an anesthetic cream to your skin to numb any sensations you may feel from the laser. Dr. Iteld also offers Pro-Nox™, an innovative pain management system designed to help calm any anxiety you may feel during your treatment. When you're ready, we'll have you lie back and relax as we pass the laser handpiece over the treatment area. The Candela Nordlys and Alma Hybrid each offer different laser and light options, which we'll discuss during your consultation. Afterward, you can expect some pinkness and sensitivity, but this will pass quickly. In time, you'll notice clearer, glowing skin as your collagen levels increase.
What Are the Benefits of Laser Skin Resurfacing?
At Iteld Plastic Surgery in Chicago, IL, our team fully understands the challenges your skin deals with on a daily basis, from UV radiation and pollutants to stress. All of these issues can work together to give your skin a dull, weary look. At Iteld Plastic Surgery, we know that as you get older, your skin can become increasingly dehydrated, dull, and older. Through laser skin resurfacing treatments, we provide our patients an opportunity for advanced skin rejuvenation with a number of side benefits:
- Reduces the appearance of creases and fine lines
- Diminishes the look of scarring and pigmentation problems
- Improves patchy skin
- Treats enlarged pores
- Increases self-confidence
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!
