Understanding the Basics and Causes of Stretch Marks

Stretch marks, scientifically known as striae, are lines that appear on the skin when it stretches too quickly. This often occurs during growth spurts, weight gain, or pregnancy. The rapid stretching prevents the skin from producing enough collagen, a protein that keeps skin elastic and smooth, leading to small tears. Initially, stretch marks may appear red or purple due to visible blood vessels, but they eventually fade to silvery or white. At Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre, we help you understand and treat these marks effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Stretch Marks Permanent?

Stretch marks are permanent in the sense that they do not disappear completely without treatment. However, they often fade over time, becoming less noticeable. Various treatments, such as those offered at Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre, can significantly reduce their appearance, helping you achieve smoother, more even-toned skin.
While there is no guaranteed way to prevent stretch marks, you can reduce your risk by:
  • Eating a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables.
  • Drinking plenty of water to stay hydrated.
  • Maintaining a healthy weight, especially during periods of rapid growth or weight gain.
  • Applying cocoa butter lotion or oils such as almond or jojoba oil to keep your skin moisturized and supple.
Treatments for stretch marks can have various side effects depending on the method used. Common side effects include temporary redness, irritation, or itching at the treatment site. More severe reactions, such as burns, can occur if a laser procedure is not performed correctly by an experienced practitioner. It’s crucial to discuss potential risks with your specialist before proceeding to make an informed decision about the best treatment for you.
Preparation is key to ensuring the best results. Before your session at Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre:
  • Avoid sun exposure or tanning beds for at least two weeks.
  • Keep the treatment area clean and moisturized.
  • Refrain from using any harsh skincare products or exfoliants for a few days prior.
  • Inform your specialist of any medications or supplements you’re taking, as some might affect the treatment or healing process.
The aftercare steps that you should follow post-treatment includes
  • Keep the area moisturized with a recommended lotion or ointment.
  • Avoid direct sun exposure to the treated area for at least a week. If you need to go outside, use sunscreen with a high SPF.
  • Steer clear of hot showers, saunas, or any activity that causes excessive sweating for the first 48 hours.
  • Follow any specific instructions provided by your specialist to ensure optimal healing and results.
Recovery times vary based on the chosen treatment method. Generally:
  • Mild redness, swelling, or a tingling sensation is normal and usually subsides within a few hours to a couple of days.
  • You can resume daily activities immediately, but avoid strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours.
  • Stay hydrated and maintain a healthy lifestyle to support the skin’s natural healing process.
  • At Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre, our team will provide detailed recovery guidelines tailored to your specific treatment to ensure smooth healing and optimal results.
