Stretch marks are a problem for many people. They are developed as a result of sudden weight gain or loss due to many factors like exercise, pregnancy, and so on.
Laser stretch mark removal
Laser stretch mark removal is arguably the best treatment to treat stretch marks permanently. It is a quick and simple procedure and does not involve any complications. A good thing about this is that it is completely painless. Laser stretch mark removal is effective for all types of stretch marks. After a few treatment sessions, the patient can feel the difference in the skin. The number of sessions required will depend on the severity of marks as advised by the laser surgeon.
The procedure
Laser stretch mark removal involves the use of intense beams of laser light that effectively degenerate scarred layers of the skin. Once the damaged skin tissue is removed, it creates room for new skin to develop. After the procedure, the skin becomes soft and even. Laser stretch mark removal also gets rid of uneven skin tones caused due to scars.
After the procedure
Once the laser stretch mark removal procedure is finished, the patient should treat the skin with care. As the treated skin is sensitive, it should not be exposed to sunlight initially. Moisturisers and lotions that provide healthy nutrients to the skin can be applied to the treated area for a quick recovery. Depending on the skin type, the laser surgeon will advise different creams and lotions to be applied on the skin.
