Stretch marks occur when the skin is stretched rapidly as the result of rapid weight or muscle gain, or weight gain during pregnancy, and can also occur in those people whose weight yo-yos, and those going through puberty. Stretch marks is the term given to the marks left after the dermis has been torn, and while the effects can fade over time, they rarely disappear altogether, and they can therefore have enormous psychological effects on those who suffer from them.
Over the years there have been many creams, lotions and potions developed that claim to reduce the appearance of stretch marks or get rid of them altogether, but for the majority of people, these have turned out not to do the latter at all, and not to the former very effectively either. But as with many non-surgical cosmetic treatments, companies have spent a lot of money developing treatments that will actual work to significantly reduce the appearance of stretch marks, knowing that once they have the answer, demand for them will be huge.
One stretch mark treatment that has given proven, phenomenal results is laser light treatment, a process that can also be used to remove the visibility of scars. Laser light is pulsed onto the area being treated and these break down the hard and compacted areas of scar tissue and encourage the growth of new tissue. The result of these two processes means that treated stretch marks are noticeably reduced, permanently.
The laser light solution used for the removal of scars and stretch marks works on the same principle as that used in laser hair removal. In all three treatments, powerful laser light is passed over the area being treated and in the case of scar tissue (including stretch marks), this serves to break down the scar tissue and encourage the generation of new tissue. It is used in laser hair removal to destroy any areas of unwanted hair at the root, which means permanently reducing or removing hair quickly and easily.
Many clinics offer both stretch mark treatments and laser hair removal but it is important for consumers not to be driven solely by price when looking for the place to get these done. The lasers used in both treatments are powerful and should not be used by unlicensed practitioners or beauty clinics; choose safety first and pick a reliable and reputable cosmetic surgery clinic that employs specialist nurses and aesthetic practitioners.
