The Universkin System
Universkin is structured around four key pillars: Cleanse, Treat, Strengthen, and Soothe, each supported by innovative product formulations featuring Complex P or patented P-HC technology:
Cleanse: Hydrating Oil Cleanser with patented P-HC technology, gently removes makeup and impurities while nourishing the skin.
Treat: The Activating Serums, powered by patented P-HC technology, are at the heart of the AI-assisted personalization process—enabling providers to generate nearly 12 million unique recommendations that address eight key skin concerns: oxidative stress, texture, redness, hydration, exfoliation, oily skin, pigmentation, and impurities.
Strengthen: HA Boosting Serum with Complex P technology deeply hydrates and strengthens the skin's structure. Complementing it are Barrier Nourishing Crèmes (in Light and Rich textures) with P-HC technology; these products nourish the skin barrier, tailored to suit different skin types.
Soothe: The Barrier Restoring Balm with P-HC technology calms the appearance of redness, minimizing sensitivity, and reinforcing the skin barrier, especially after aesthetic treatments.
Iteld Plastic Surgery Reviews
I can’t speak highly enough of Dr. Iteld and his team. Everything from the consult -> surgery -> post OP care has been extremely thorough and attentive. Dr. Iteld is very caring and a professional in every manner. Would recommend him to everyone!!Additionally, the rest of the team has been such a pleasure to interact with. Shout out to Caryle and Ashley. I look forward to my appointments because I get to interact with these lovely people!!
I had the most positive experience with Dr Iteld. He was thoughtful and thorough and I trusted him 100% with my surgery. It turned out even better than I imagined. His meticulous attention to detail is top notch, and his pain-free, non-narcotic recovery regimen is INCREDIBLE. I would recommend anyone to Dr Iteld’s practice for cosmetic surgery, and would also recommend Kimmy, their nurse aesthetician, for facial balancing. Such an awesome experience all around.
Incredible Work - I had the most positive experience with Dr Iteld. He was thoughtful and thorough and I trusted him 100% with my breast augmentation and mastopexy surgery. It turned out even better than I imagined. His meticulous attention to detail is top notch, and his pain-free non-narcotic recovery regimen is INCREDIBLE. I would recommend anyone to Dr Iteld’s practice for cosmetic surgery, but especially for a personalized, well contemplated breast surgery.
I had a wonderful experience with Dr Iteld and his team. They were very accommodating and helpful. They went above and beyond my expectations especially their Nurse specialist.
Amazing! - Dr. Iteld is absolutely amazing! The process has been so seamless from start to finish and his staff is fantastic. I had a breast augmentation and I have felt absolutely zero pain since my procedure (which is such a different experience my friends had with other surgeons). I HIGHLY recommend Dr. Iteld!
