The Only Real Way to Say Goodbye to Your Stretchmarks
First thing first, Stretch Marks (aka stretchies, tiger stripes, or whatever you’ve named the faded or pigmented streaks on your skin), are 100% natural. They’re so natural that you definitely have heard everyone from your sister to your friends—even acquaintances—complain about them. Even though there’s nothing wrong or harmful about them, it’s okay if you dislike their appearance. That being said, feeling proud of your body (including all its curves and edges) and wanting to reduce the appearance of stretch marks don’t have to be mutually exclusive. We can embrace body positivity and still try out the various treatments available to smooth them out and make peace with them.
Here a top 3 technologies to treat stretch marks effectively:
Resurface Skin with Radiofrequency
Radiofrequency technology is used to stimulate collagen production by directing energy waves deep into the skin. The method of heating the dermis without damaging the top layer of skin makes it an increasingly popular non-surgical skin tightening and firming treatment. This is an ideal skin tightening treatment for anyone suffering from loose skin as a result of weight loss or pregnancy. You will see significant improvement in skin texture at the stretch mark area as the skin regain elasticity.
Rebuild Skin Cells With Microneedling
You might have heard about micro-needling before, might not know about its benefits for stretch marks removal. EstheClinic’s DermaBooster micro-needling is a great option to aid in stretch mark removal. When the skin stretches or shrinks too quickly, the collagen and elastin rupture and stretch marks become visible. This tool and its 1,040 titanium micro-needles act as a collagen booster, which penetrates the skin effectively and causes micro-trauma to the skin. It stimulates collagen and elastin to rebuild and to help the appearance of stretch marks.
Heal Skin with LED Technology
Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology is a monochromatic light that has many incredible benefits, including encouraging cellular regeneration, stimulating collagen production, reducing fine lines and accelerating the healing process of the skin. It is the perfect remedy for common skin problems such as stretch marks. You will see a noticeable improvement after the first session. Subsequently, stretch marks will fade gradually. As skin cells regenerate, stretch marks will re-pigment, and their appearance will be reduced. The skin will lose that unsightly ‘marbled’ appearance.
