Laser Surgery For Stretch Marks
Laser surgery for stretch marks is expensive and risky. This treatment claims to get rid of your stretch marks permanently. It can minimize their ugly appearance significantly.
You may need up six session to achieve best results. You need a lot of time and patience if you use laser surgery to remove stretch marks. Studies show that the visual aspect of stretch marks continues to improve over time, ranging from three to six months after the initial surgery. Even you don't see much improvement at first, you should see at least a 50% improvement after six months.
However, you may be disappointed even you can see the desirable result. You have to bear the side effects if they arise. Sometimes, the result does not last. Your skin may develop scar and discoloration. Not everyone will experience the same results. Therefore, don't place too high hopes on it. Moreover, you have to sign a written statement to release the laser surgeons from being responsible if the surgery is not successful.
The laser treatment uses narrow beams of light that penetrates through the skin to stimulate the cells in the dermis to produce new tissue. It is not getting the most out of the natural biological processes in a positive way. In fact, it forces your body to manipulate cells, membranes and elements such as collagen and elastin to provide a better "outer' layer. In other words, this surgery is just aesthetic. Many attest that it can remove scars or mounds on the outer skin.
The surgery works best when stretch marks first arise. This is because the pigmentation 'sensors' cannot trace mature or silver-grey stretch marks. However, today, some new laser techniques can treat a wide variety of scars and stretch marks.
Laser surgery for stretch marks receives mixed responses. Whether it is an effective method to eliminate stretch marks for good is still uncertain. Even many choose this procedure and claim it to be the best way to get rid of stretch marks; you have to decide it for yourself.
