What Are Stretch Marks and How Do They Develop?
Stretch marks, also called striae, are red or whitish rippled streaks that usually show on the stomach, hips, buttocks, thighs, arms, or breasts. While not harmful to your health, they often pose a cosmetic concern.
Stretch marks usually appear because the skin can't stretch enough to keep up with rapid growth due to weight gain, pregnancy, or childhood growth spurts. Another factor is a lack of collagen, a protein that contributes to skin elasticity. Stretch marks typically start off pink, red, or even purple in color and, with time, change to silvery white.
Quanta Light EVO Series - Fractional Laser Treatment
Fractional laser resurfacing offers a promising solution to get rid of stretch marks and give you the smooth and supple skin you desire. It's ideal for treating all types of stretch marks, anywhere on the body.
The non-surgical procedure involves using pulses of fractional laser light to break down the targeted stretch marks. That triggers new tissue production at the treatment site and improves your skin's health and suppleness. Fractional laser therapy also enhances collagen production, which further minimizes the appearance of stretch marks while improving skin tone, texture, and overall appearance.
Fractional laser stretch marks treatment is quick and easy, taking about 30 minutes to complete, depending on the treatment area. Most individuals experience minimal discomfort during the laser treatment and resume their activities immediately after. You'll likely experience temporary redness and swelling in the treatment areas, which may last a few days. We typically recommend 3-5 treatments for optimal results.
Microneedling - Collagen Induction Therapy
Microneedling is a transformative procedure that involves the use of tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries on the skin's surface. Also known as collagen induction therapy, the minimally invasive treatment sets the body's natural wound response on overdrive, stimulating collagen and elastin production and intensifying skin cell regeneration. Microneedling rejuvenates and heals from the inside out, naturally tightening and lifting the skin and smoothing away stretch marks.
Microneedling treatment is quick, with minimal discomfort and no downtime. Some patients report redness and mild bruising right after the procedure, but the temporary side effects should resolve shortly after. In a few days, your skin will look plumper and tighter, and the stretch marks will fade away. However, it can take six to eight weeks to see the treatment's full effects as your skin continues to produce collagen and elastin.
