What Causes Stretch Marks?
Stretch marks are caused by the rapid stretching or shrinking of skin and appear as discolored, linear streaks on the skin’s surface. Most commonly, they occur during hormonal changes such as puberty, pregnancy, muscle building, or weight gain.
While not harmful to health, stretch marks can be aesthetically unappealing and difficult to hide. Thankfully there is laser stretch mark removal, which typically uses fractional laser technology to break up the scar tissue that makes up stretch marks and helps them to blend back into the surrounding skin.
How Does Laser Stretch Mark Removal Work?
Laser treatment for stretch marks uses a fractional laser beam to create tiny holes in your skin, stimulating collagen production underneath your epidermis (outer layer).
This encourages new layers of healthy skin cells to form and freshen up tired-looking areas where stretch marks have developed. Multiple treatments may be necessary for optimal results depending on your individual needs.
It’s important to note that sometimes you can experience redness or swelling after a laser stretch mark treatment, but it usually resolves within 24 hours after application.
Benefits of Laser Stretch Mark Removal
Laser stretch mark removal offers many benefits compared with other methods, such as topical creams or surgery:
- Treatment is non-invasive, so there’s no need for anesthesia.
- Results are visible within a few days after treatment, with minimal downtime required before seeing results.
- Minimal Scarring as long as the treatments are performed correctly with appropriate care taken afterward, like avoiding sun exposure until healing has occurred entirely.
- The effects last much longer than those seen with other methods, such as topical creams, which wear off quickly when not continued regularly over time.
