What are stretch marks and what do they look like?
Stretch marks are a common skin concern that many people experience. Stretch marks appear as long, narrow streaks or lines on the surface of the skin. They are a different colour and texture to the skin around them.
The appearance of stretch marks can vary from person to person. They may appear as raised red or purple lines. However, as time goes on, they can fade and become lighter in colour.
While stretch marks are harmless and do not pose any health risks, they can cause discomfort for those who have.
If you are looking to get rid of your stretch marks for cosmetic reasons, there are a few treatments available. Laser skin resurfacing and microneedling are the most common treatments that help to improve the appearance of your stretch marks.
If you have concerns about your stretch marks or want advice on how to treat them, please get in touch with our clinic.
What causes stretch marks?
Before you look at stretch mark removal treatments, it is useful to know what causes stretch marks to appear on the skin.
Stretch marks occur when the skin is stretched beyond its normal capacity. This causes collagen and elastin fibres in the middle of your skin to break. This can happen for a number of reasons, which include:
- Rapid weight gain or weight loss
- Pregnancy stretch marks
- Hormonal changes
- Rapid growth during puberty
- Certain medical conditions such as Cushing syndrome
- You have a family history of stretch marks
Laser stretch mark removal London
One of the methods of stretch mark removal is laser treatment. At Skin Perfection, we use laser skin resurfacing treatment to help reduce stretch marks. For some, a course of laser treatment can help remove stretch marks altogether.
Laser skin resurfacing treatment
Laser skin resurfacing treatment helps to resurface the skin and improve its tone and texture.
But how does this form of stretch mark removal work? The laser works by removing the damaged outer layer of the skin. This stimulates new and healthy skin cells to grow in its place. It also encourages the production of new collagen, which is important as it builds strength in your skin to help withstand further stretching.
This laser treatment also treats other forms of scarring such as acne scars. It is also a great treatment option to rejuvenate the skin by reducing lines and wrinkles and improving the texture of your skin.
Who is suitable for this stretch mark treatment?
Laser skin resurfacing works best for people with lighter skin types. It is not recommended for dark skin tones. If you do have darker skin, our practitioners will work with you to find alternative treatment options. This may include our microneedling treatment.
Other non-surgical stretch mark treatments at Skin Perfection
Dermapen microneedling stretch mark removal treatment
Microneedling is a non-surgical treatment that uses a device with fine needles to create tiny punctures in the skin. This causes the body to start its natural healing response, which includes elastin and collagen production. This helps to break down stretch marks and rebuild the skin.
Collagen production also helps to plump the skin and reduce the visibility of stretched skin. After a course of treatment, you will also see an improvement in the tone and texture of your skin. This will leave you with much smoother and radiant-looking skin.
Who is suitable for this stretch mark treatment?
The great thing about microneedling, besides the results, is that it works for most skin tones and skin types. This means that almost everyone can benefit from microneedling treatment.
At your consultation, your practitioner will assess your skin and skin concerns. This will help us determine whether microneedling or another treatment option is best for you.
