How Can We Treat Your Stretch Marks?

Laser treatment for stretch marks is a cutting-edge procedure designed to improve the of skin affected by stretch marks. This non-invasive treatment uses advanced pico laser technology to stimulate collagen production, promoting skin rejuvenation and tightening. Benefits include visibility of stretch marks, enhanced skin texture, and improved overall skin tone.

Laser is a great option for newer stretch marks with darker pigmentation.

Patients can expect minimal downtime, with results gradually becoming noticeable over a few weeks as the skin heals and regenerates.

Contraindications:

Accutane- must be off for minimum 6 months prior to treatment.
Retinoids must be stopped 3-7 days before treatment
History of Keloids
Photosensitivity Disorders: Lupus or PMLE
Infection or open wound in treatment area

We understand stretch marks come with history or reminders of life events you are ready to move past. This treatment can produce a 50-70+% improvement after just one session.

Though some individuals wear their stretch marks proudly others prefer to conceal them- this treatment can aide in regaining confidence in your own skin again.

Inkless is a treatment utilizing a traditional microneedling technique while applying a serum to expedite healing. This can address texture and tone of the stretch mark, shrinking their size before moving forward with next steps.

To undergo this type of treatment stretch marks must be at least 1 year old with minimal color to them.

This technique can take 8-12 weeks to heal from. You can expect the area to be red and raised for 1-2 weeks following the treatment.

Camouflage is a technique we apply as final measure when necessary. Our primary objective is to employ other treatments to minimize stretch marks, allowing the tissue to regenerate naturally.

Occasionally, we encounter a limit in the body's capacity to reduce the treated area. In such instances, camouflage is utilized to tattoo the remaining stretch marks. With this we will blend them with the surrounding skin and effectively concealing them.

The healing process for this technique can take6-12 weeks, with the area likely appearing red and raised for 1-2 weeks post-treatment.

Our stretch mark service with the InMode Optimas machine and RF Microneedling Morpheus 8 offers numerous benefits, including improved skin texture, increased collagen production, and a noticeable reduction in the appearance of both new and old stretch marks.

For optimal results, we recommend avoiding sun exposure and certain skincare products for a few days prior to your appointment.

After the treatment, it’s essential to keep the area moisturized and avoid intense physical activities for a few days to ensure proper healing.

You can start this transformative service as soon as your stretch marks appear, or even years later for older marks. Let us help you achieve smoother, more confident skin!

IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) and RF (Radio Frequency) microneedling are both effective skin treatments, but they operate differently. IPL uses light energy to target pigmentation stimulate collagen production, making it ideal for treating issues like sun damage and uneven skin tone. In contrast, RF microneed combines traditional microneedling with radio frequency energy, creating micro-injuries in the skin while simultaneously delivering heat to deeper layers, which enhances collagen and elastin production for tighter skin. While IPL focuses on surface-level concerns, RF microneedling penetrates deeper for more comprehensive skin rejuvenation.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is an innovative option for reducing the appearance of stretch marks. This non-invasive procedure utilizes light energy to stimulate collagen production and promote skin rejuvenation.

Benefits of IPL for stretch marks include improved skin texture, enhanced elasticity, and a more even skin tone.

Prior to treatment, it’s to avoid sun exposure and certain medications, while-care involves moisturizing the treated area and protecting it from sun exposure to optimize results.

Downtime is minimal, allowing you to return to your daily activities shortly after the session.
