What is Stretch Mark Treatment?
Stretch mark treatment involves non-surgical cosmetic procedures aimed at reducing the appearance of stretch marks by promoting collagen production and skin regeneration. At The Dermatology and Laser Group, we specialize in using advanced techniques like laser therapy and microneedling to achieve smoother, more even skin on areas commonly affected by stretch marks, including the abdomen, thighs, and hips.
How Does Stretch Mark Treatments Work?
Our treatments work by stimulating the skin’s natural healing process. Laser therapy targets the pigment in stretch marks and promotes collagen remodeling, while microneedling creates tiny micro-injuries that encourage the skin to produce new, healthy tissue. These methods lead to a gradual fading of stretch marks, leaving the skin firmer and more resilient.
What to Expect During Treatment
During your consultation, Dr. Akhavan will assess your skin and discuss the best treatment options tailored to your needs. Our laser and microneedling treatments are performed with precision, focusing on enhancing skin tone and texture without causing damage to surrounding skin. At The Dermatology and Laser Group, we prioritize safety and aim to deliver natural-looking improvements that help restore confidence.
Comfortable Treatments
We use the latest equipment and techniques to ensure minimal discomfort during each session. Our patients often report a mild tingling or warming sensation, and we take steps to ensure comfort throughout the treatment process.
What to Expect After Stretch Mark Treatments
Following treatment, most patients can return to regular activities with minimal restrictions. It’s recommended to avoid direct sun exposure and to keep the treated areas moisturized. Results improve gradually, with the most noticeable changes appearing over the course of several weeks as collagen builds in the treated areas.
Potential Side Effects
We hold ourselves to the highest standards of safety and care. Treatments are administered by Dr. Akhavan, a board-certified dermatologist with extensive experience in skin rejuvenation. Minor redness or swelling may occur after treatment, but these effects typically subside within a few hours to a day.
