STRETCH MARKS SPECIALISTS

Stretch marks are very common, but they make many people feel self-conscious. Fortunately, there are effective treatments that can drastically improve their appearance. SKIN Las Vegas Med Spa offers powerful treatments including the ResurFX treatment using the Lumenis M22 helping men and women from the greater Las Vegas area feel great about their skin again. And online scheduling makes it easy to find an appointment time to fit your busy life.

One of the most effective treatment options for stretch marks is laser therapy. The ResurFX is a fractional laser. … Small laser dots penetrate the skin, stimulating collagen production. With increased collagen, the skin is tighter and firmer.

Lumenis ResurFX Laser

 

One of the most exciting treatment options is the Lumenis® ResurFX™. This powerful laser technology creates amazing results with minimal recovery time.

The Lumenis ResurFX can help

  • Skin discoloration
  • Fine lines and wrinkles
  • Acne scarring
  • Loose or sagging skin

Because ResurFX uses fractional laser technology, it only affects a portion of the skin. That allows your aesthetician to target the areas that need treatment, yet leave the surrounding tissues and cells unaffected.

ResurFX is a non-ablative laser, which means the treatment stimulates your skin to produce more collagen without causing damage to your cells. Increased collagen plumps the skin, giving you a more youthful appearance.

    Stretch Marks Q & A

    Can laser remove stretch marks?

     

    While it can‘t get rid of stretch marks completely, laser removal may help make striae smoother, thereby reducing their appearance. Two types of lasers are used for skin resurfacing treatment: ablative and non-ablative lasers. Ablative lasers (CO2, Erbium YAG) treat stretch marks by destroying the upper layer of skin.

    How many laser sessions are needed for stretch marks?

    Most people need three to five treatment sessions for optimum results, but the results and numbers of treatments vary.

     

    Can laser remove white stretch marks?

     

    Laser therapy is a common treatment option to remove white stretch marks. In the procedure, lasers penetrate the skin, triggering regeneration. This stimulates the tissues around your stretch marks to heal at a faster rate.

    What are stretch marks?

    Stretch marks occur when your body grows faster than your skin can regenerate to accommodate the growth. When your skin stretches, long, thin lines appear. Stretch marks are often a dark red or purple color that eventually fades to white.

    These are some common conditions that cause stretch marks:

    • Growth spurts during puberty
    • Pregnancy
    • Sudden weight gain
    • Bodybuilding
    • Breast implants
    • Marfan syndrome, a genetic disorder
