Doctor Otto Placik Becomes the First Plastic Surgeon in Illinois to Offer BeautiFirm Laser Skin Tightening
Image: https://www.abnewswire.com/upload/2025/09/dc89dc77896f28e069cffd36ea51a166.jpgDr. Otto J. Placik, a board-certified plastic surgeon, has introduced BeautiFirm Trademark , a new advancement in laser skin tightening and body contouring, marking another first in Illinois. This milestone highlights Dr. Placik's leadership as the best doctor in Illinois, widely recognized as one of the best plastic surgeons in Chicago and among the top doctors in the Midwest.
First to Introduce BeautiFirm Trademark to Illinois
BeautiFirm Trademark is a handheld accessory for Alma's BeautiFill system that uses a 1470 nm diode laser to deliver precise, controlled heat to the deeper layers of the skin. The technology stimulates collagen production, promotes skin contraction, and enhances firmness. The device's temperature monitoring ensures accurate energy delivery for safe and effective outcomes.
The procedure is minimally invasive, performed in-office under local anesthesia, and often combined with laser-assisted liposuction for enhanced results. With minimal downtime, patients typically return to daily activities within days.
Dr. Placik is the first board-certified plastic surgeon in Illinois to adopt this technology, reinforcing his reputation as a top plastic surgeon in Chicago and a doctor with best reviews across the state.
Case Example: 23-Year-Old Patient Sees Early Results
In a recent case, a 23-year-old patient sought treatment for fullness under the chin and neck. The procedure included:
*
Laser liposuction of the neck
*
Fat transfer to the chin
*
BeautiFirm Trademark laser skin tightening (five minutes of treatment time)
*
Laser liposuction of anterior axillary fold ("armpit fat")
Nine days after surgery, the patient showed minimal swelling and bruising. Results are expected to improve over three months as collagen remodeling continues.
This outcome demonstrates why Dr. Placik is consistently recognized as the best plastic surgeon in Illinois and a top doctor in Chicago, combining innovation with patient-focused care.
Expanding Treatment Options
Beyond the chin and neck, BeautiFirm Trademark can be applied to the arms, abdomen, thighs, and areas with stubborn fat such as the armpits. Patients benefit from improved skin tightening, body contouring, and confidence.
Dr. Placik's adoption of BeautiFirm Trademark aligns with his commitment to offering patients safe, evidence-based solutions. This reinforces his recognition as a top plastic surgeon in Illinois and a trusted name among those searching for the best doctor in Chicago or the top doctor in the Midwest.
Why Patients Choose Dr. Otto Placik
With decades of experience and thousands of successful procedures, Dr. Placik has earned recognition as the best plastic surgeon in Chicago and the top plastic surgeon in the Midwest. His patients consistently describe him as approachable, thorough, and precise, qualities that contribute to his reputation as a doctor with best reviews.
By being the first to introduce BeautiFirm Trademark to Illinois, Dr. Placik continues to provide cutting-edge treatments to patients who seek natural-looking outcomes and minimal downtime.
