Stretch Marks
A form of scarring, stretch marks are the result of broken collagen fibres in the skin, resulting in poor quality, thin and hypo-pigmented skin. They commonly occur during rapid weight gain, pregnancy, or other instances where the skin is suddenly over-stretched.Similar to other scar treatments, the aim is to stimulate the skin at regular intervals to promote remodelling and strengthening of the poorly healed scar.
Stretch Marks Treatments & Programmes
Laser Resurfacing
Laser therapy using fractional eCO2 or picosecond lasers stimulate the dermal component of stretch mark scar tissue, thickening and tightening the thin skin over time.
The eCO2 laser can also stimulate melanin production over the hypo-pigmented areas over time to blend the discoloured stretch marks.
ultraformer MPT hifu
The Ultraformer HIFU takes advantage of highly intense focused ultrasound at multiple depths to stimulate the scar tissue, further tightening and improving the quality of the overlying skin.
Collagen Induction Therapy
Making use of modern, low down-time therapies, this form of collagen stimulation can act as a substitute to laser therapy.
Combined with Ultraformer HIFU deeper stimulation for optimal results, erase those stretch marks as effectively as possible.
