Laser Stretch Mark Removal

Stretch marks, also known as striae or strutsae, are visible skin imperfections that can be identified by blurring or discolouration of the skin. They can develop due to various factors, such as rapid weight gain or loss, pregnancy, puberty, or certain medical conditions. They typically result from the stretching and tearing of the skin’s elastic fibres, leading to changes in texture and colour.

Among the various treatments available for stretch marks, Fractional Laser therapy has emerged as one of the most effective stretch mark reducing solutions. It is particularly beneficial for addressing both old, white stretch marks and newer, purple ones. It works by causing controlled damage to the affected skin, stimulating the body’s natural collagen production.

A minimum of 6 sessions is usually required to ensure significant results.

Why Laser Therapy Stands Out

The precision and effectiveness of laser therapy are highly valued. It stimulates the production of collagen and elastin in specific skin layers, leading to smoothing and repair. Of course, this then leads to better skin texture and a decrease in the appearance of stretch marks.

Our Fractional Laser procedure is also minimally invasive, guaranteeing minimal downtime. This implies that you can typically return to your regular routine without much disruption, and the majority of patients feel only mild discomfort. Our experts will customise the treatment to suit your specific requirements to help achieve optimal, beautiful results.

The Procedure

Prior To Treatment

The use of ablative treatments for stretch marks involves following pre- and post-treatment protocols to achieve the best possible outcome. Before your Fractional Laser therapy, please avoid any sun exposure for a period of at least 4 weeks before treatment. This helps prevent any risk of pigmentation changes, and also ensures that the skin is as healthy as possible.

Treatment

Upon arrival for your appointment, a patch test will be performed and thoroughly assessed to ensure that you are a suitable candidate for the procedure. This evaluation helps us confirm that the treatment is appropriate for your skin type and condition. During this visit, we will also take the opportunity to ask you a few additional questions to better understand your needs and expectations. Prior to starting the procedure, a numbing cream will be applied to the area to be treated. This cream will remain on your skin for approximately 30 minutes to ensure that the area is adequately numbed and to minimse any discomfort during the treatment. After the numbing cream has been removed, the procedure will commence. Throughout the session, we will use cooling techniques to enhance your comfort and alleviate any residual discomfort.

After Treatment

Patients often experience a sensation of extreme heat in the treated area afterwards. During the healing process, this is a typical event and indicates that the treatment is working to stimulate skin regeneration. To ensure optimal results and speed up your recovery, you will be given specific aftercare guidelines. Wearing loose-fitting clothing is advisable in the days following the surgery to prevent friction or irritation from the treated area. This is important for post-surgery visits. Furthermore, to avoid any adverse effects and promote healing, it is recommended to refrain from taking hot baths or showers for a period of at least two weeks after the treatment.

What To Expect

We will conduct a thorough patch test assessment to ensure you are a good fit. We will also ask you a few more questions to make sure your expectations are achieved, and that you have a clear understanding of the duration of your procedure. We will leave the numbing cream on the area to be treated for about 30 minutes. Once it is removed, the procedure will begin. We will also cool down the area during your treatment to ensure a comfortable experience.

FAQs

Can fractional laser get rid of stretch marks?

Fractional laser treatment is an excellent option for improving the appearance of stretch marks. Even if it does not completely get rid of them. But it can greatly reduce visual prominence. This powerful stretch mark laser works by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. This can increase skin texture and reduce the appearance of stretch marks over time.

Laser therapy for treating stretch marks can be effective for many types of stretch marks, but results vary based on factors such as the age, colour, and severity of the stretch marks, as well as individual skin type and response to treatment.

Initial improvements can often be noticeable within just a few weeks, providing a sense of early progress. However, more substantial and dramatic results typically become evident after a few months of consistent effort. This extended timeframe is due to the fact that full results are closely tied to the ongoing production and maturation of collagen in the treated area. As collagen continues to develop and integrate, the final, optimal results may take several months to fully materialise. This gradual process ensures that the improvements are not only visible but also enduring, reflecting the natural pace of the body’s healing and regeneration mechanisms.
