Causes of Stretch Marks

Stretch marks, those unwanted lines on the skin, often appear due to rapid growth, pregnancy, or sudden weight changes. They occur when the skin’s elasticity is put to the test, leaving behind visible reminders. Stretch marks, just after forming are red/pink in colour, but over time, they take on a more silvery or nude colour. Some people are more prone to stretch marks than others.

The Consultation Process: Stretch Mark Removal in London

Embarking on your stretch mark removal journey at Eve Clinics involves a thorough consultation with our skin specialist. Our expert practitioners, equipped with years of experience, will assess your unique needs and aesthetic goals. During this personalised medical consultation, we’ll look at your medical history, skin type, and specific concerns. We’ll also conduct a patch test to ensure you are suitable for treatment. Consultations are always a chance for you to ask our skin specialist questions and voice your concerns.

DEKA SmartXide Touch CO2 Laser Treatment

Eve Clinics proudly uses and champions the DEKA SmartXide Touch CO2 laser, a cutting-edge medical laser for stretch mark removal. This advanced technology works by stimulating collagen production, effectively minimising the appearance of stretch marks.

Collagen is a structural protein that provides strength, firmness, and elasticity to various tissues in the body, including the skin. In the skin, collagen fibers form a network that supports its structure and helps it maintain its shape. The skin’s ability to stretch and bounce back is largely attributed to the presence of collagen.

When the skin is subjected to rapid stretching, such as during pregnancy or rapid weight gain, the normal production of collagen may be disrupted. This can lead to the formation of stretch marks, which are essentially scars that result from the tearing of the dermis, the middle layer of the skin.

The precision of the CO2 laser targets the affected areas, leaving surrounding skin untouched and unharmed. The laser works by removing the top layer of skin in preparation for new, healthy skin to form.

What to Expect During the Laser Stretch Mark Treatment?

1. Initial Skin Preparation

Before the treatment begins, our skilled practitioners at Eve Clinics will ensure your skin is prepped and ready. This may involve cleansing the targeted area to allow for optimal laser effectiveness. We may also ask you to shave the area (for example armpits), if there is hair present.

2. The Laser Application Process

As you sit comfortably, our laser specialist will administer the DEKA SmartXide Touch CO2 laser. The laser’s controlled energy pulses deeply penetrate the skin, precisely targeting stretch marks. The sensation is often described as mild discomfort, and our practitioners prioritise your comfort throughout the procedure. The area treated will be numbed with numbing cream prior to treatment, ensuring your comfort.

3. Post-Treatment Care Guidelines

Following the DEKA SmartXide Touch CO2 laser treatment, our team will provide you with post-treatment instructions. These instructions are designed to enhance the healing process and ensure the longevity of your results. Moisturising and sun protection are common recommendations during the initial recovery period.

Immediately after the procedure, you will have a dark dots on the area treated which will fall off in about one week. Sometimes this will require more time if the procedure has been done on large and deep stretch marks. Please do not peel it off. You must leave it to come off naturally.

Red stretch marks:

If the stretch marks are red and we are using the Candela vascular laser, on the area treated you can observe a slight bruise on the area. The skin may appear much darker in colour for couple of weeks. This is like a purpura and is the coagulation of the blood vessels.

Avoid hot baths, swimming pool and hot tubs for up to 1 week. Eve Clinics will advise you to use skincare as well. You can buy our special skincare Hypericum Gel and Niaciderm or Savlon and Aloe vera gel from over the counter.
