Stretch Marks Laser Treatment
Laser is considered the ultimate answer to any sort of adversities; we have learnt that in our childhood years (Star Trek and the super hero graphic novels to blame) and even as grown-ups, we are amazed at its incredible prowess. So welcome to the domain of laser treatments where stretch marks removal has already become a child’s play. And pregnant women, should we approach you for testimonials?
Stretch marks treatment through laser gains an upper hand primarily because of its painless nature. But before we proceed further, we need to wrought up a bit of medical science; to be precise, dermatology.
Almost all of us have heard about collagen - the component that repairs and rejuvenates dead skin tissues. This collagen is a protein-rich compound and stretch marks laser treatment is all about repairing this important compound. Thus, laser seals the broken blood vessels; removes damaged skin tissues and repairs the middle-skin layer, filling up the stretch marks. This treatment, in combination with a special cream, has helped stretch marks to leave the skin behind and fly to some better destinations.
But, there are two sides to every story and stretch marks are no exceptions either. Stretch marks laser treatment involves multiple numbers of surgeries and require considerable amount of time for an entire surgery to be completed. Thus, the price factor comes up automatically; it’s also because of the prolonged treatment sessions that prices shoot up real high. Add to it the fees of the doctor and you can imagine the figure. But the good news is there are multiple types of stretch marks laser treatments available to fit every individual’s budget and if luck permits, you have to treat an area of your body that requires lesser amounts to be paid. However, irrespective of the area and the treatment, if the stretch marks are older than a year or so, there’s almost no chance that they shall get cured. The stretch marks laser treatments are fully effective only on recent marks that have developed as a result of pregnancy. This is because faded or white stretch marks are something that laser rays cannot detect; it’s only the red or brown areas that are detected best.
The pre-treatment measures require avoiding an exposure in the sun for about five to six weeks; if that somehow becomes a problem, application of generous quantities of a good sunscreen lotion is the other alternative together with an umbrella. Also, bid nicotine goodbye for at least a couple of months, if you can’t manage more.
Now, a few words of caution. Stretch marks laser treatment can give some ugly side effects if one falls in the hands of an unskilled medical professional. That may range from a red and swollen operated region to burning sensations on the skin and skin discoloration. That would be abusing an effective method. Otherwise, in the hands of a qualified doctor, stretch marks can just vanish by fading away to obscurity without any post-operative complication to worry about.
