Laser resurfacing for stretch marks and scarring*

Laser resurfacing for stretch marks and scarring

Laser resurfacing with our FDA-approved Palomar Starlux 500 is a highly effective option for stretch mark reduction and skin tightening.

The non-ablative fractional laser creates micro-channels of heat in the skin, causing it to produce collagen and elastin. This shrinks the appearance of the stretch marks or scarring, while protecting surrounding skin tissue.

The same laser is used also to treat acne scars and fine lines and wrinkles.

This treatment is only suitable for skin types 1 to 3.

After just 4 sessions, about 6 weeks apart, many people notice improvements in the appearance of their stretch marks and scarring.

It has also been reported that after 6 months from the last session, your skin continues to reproduce new collagen and the skin improvements are even better.

Your questions answered

Do I need a test patch before the procedure?

Yes.

Before having any laser treatment, you will need to have a full consultation to assess your skin type and suitability.

You will also need to have a test patch, 24 - 48 hours before treatment, to make sure you respond in the correct way to the procedure.

Does the treatment hurt?

The laser treatment feels like small, hot, needle pin-pricks on your skin.

Some patients prefer to have a numbing cream applied before the procedure, but some can manage the treatment without it.

How will my skin look after the treatment?  

Immediately following the treatment your skin may appear a little swollen, but after a few minutes relaxing in the clinic with cool packs it will calm down quite quickly.

If you are having the treatment under your eyes, that area does tend to swell and stay swollen for a few days - but the results are so worth it! Any redness that appears may last for between 7 and 14 days.

    I have been coming here for the last year and can honestly say it is one of the best salons I’ve been to… I’ve been having the micro needling treatment and my skin has never been better. I would highly recommend this treatment and salon.

    I’ve been coming here for over a month now for blue LED light treatment and can’t recommend enough! The treatment itself has done wonders for my acne, the staff are lovely and the location is great. I also think the prices are very reasonable and have recommended Skin Perfection to my sister, who has started the same treatment.

    I have visited the saloon for 6 course of yellow LED light therapy. The ladies there are all very nice and gave me full information about the treatment before during and after the course of 6. It is quite difficult to take appointment within a short time so i suggest to book your slot asap as they get fully booked very easily. …

    Skin Perfection is one of the best clinics I have ever been to, they know what they talking about when it comes to your skin… When you first step in the clinic you are made to feel very welcome not rushed and they listen to what your concerns are about your skin, and what products will be best for your skin.

    I had my first session of laser hair removal today. I was anxious but Lauren B was very informative, professional and patient. I even noticed results from my patch test. The clinic is sparkling clean and clinically spotless. They are fully informed and professionally trained and I’m looking forward to the rest of my treatments. …

    … I’m delighted with the results of my recent LVL (“lash volume lift”) treatment. Lilly added volume and dimension to my stick straight, long blonde lashes. The curl and blue/black tint really made them pop! I feel so pretty and awake now without makeup, and with mascara, the extra drama is intense in the best way. So happy I found a way to enhance my lashe without those high-maintenance and damaging extensions.

    … I have had a course of skin treatments: photofacial rejuvenation combined with a peel and my skin feels so much better for it. It can be uncomfortable during treatment but definitely worth the results.

    I’d highly recommend Skin Perfection. I’ve used them for my lazer hair removal and it has been extremely successful. They are incredibly professional, fast and organised, always texting or calling before appointments, always on time and the treatment itself has worked really well and I’m going to continue using them for more.
