Considering Laser Treatment for Stretch Marks?
Many have wondered whether laser treatment for stretch marks actually works and if it permanently removes them. Laser technology is used to treat stretch marks and also a wide variety of scars. Laser treatment for stretch marks works by stimulating the skin underneath the marks to start the fibroblasts in the skin dividing again. Along with the stimulation of collagen production, helps to thicken the skin underneath the stretch marks so that it looks more like the skin around it.
Using lasers to treat stretch marks does not produce consistent results. It might be more effective than other forms of stretch mark removal. Laser stretch mark removal is a progressive process so you may need to go back for multiple treatments in order to see results. Approximately seventy percent of people who have had this treatment have reported an improvement in the look of these stretch marks.
No treatment in existence will make stretch marks go away entirely. Even with laser treatment, the best you can hope for is that your stretch marks will look faded and less noticeable. Keep this in mind if you are looking into this form of treatment, so that you are not disappointed when your stretch marks are still there.
