Stretch Marks

Stretch marks can occur as the result of weight gain or pregnancy, or they can appear seemingly out of nowhere. And when they develop, they can have a dramatic impact on your appearance, causing you to appear softer and less toned than you really are.

At our medical Spa near Los Angeles, we’re committed to helping our clients eliminate these stubborn marks, restoring the smooth and contoured appearance they desire.

What Causes Stretch Marks?

Stretch marks are caused when your skin stretches faster than your body can produce collagen, resulting in tiny tears. As these tears heal, the scars that develop are what we know as stretch marks. The most common causes of stretch marks include:

Pregnancy

A natural part of childbearing, most women develop stretch marks at some point during their pregnancy. The most common location is on the abdomen to accommodate the baby, as well as the buttocks, thighs, hips and breasts.

Weight Gain

In many cases, stretch marks develop as the result of substantial weight gain. This most commonly occurs when the weight gain is rapid, as often happens in adolescence.

Certain Medications

There are a few medications that we know are associated with the development of stretch marks. They include corticosteroid creams and long-term steroid use.

Our Personalized Approach To Stretch Mark Removal

Though we have multiple state-of-the-art treatment options available to help remove stretch marks at Marcus Medical, we know that everyone’s body is unique and no single procedure is best for every client. As such, we get to know you on a personal level during your initial consultation and throughout the treatment process. We evaluate the condition of your skin and learn as much as we can about you, to ensure we resolve your issue in the most effective way possible.

Depending on what we learn, we may recommend a single treatment option or a more involved, multi-step regimen that also involves lifestyle changes to ensure optimal results.

Regardless of the treatment we ultimately decide on, you can be assured that it will be completely tailored to your unique needs, ensuring an ideal outcome that’s perfect for you.

Microneedling

Also known as Collagen Induction Therapy (CIT) in Los Angeles, microneedling rejuvenates your complexion by puncturing the skin using ultra fine needles, essentially creating microscopic wounds. To heal these wounds, the body produces more collagen – an essential ingredient when it comes to healthy, radiant skin. By producing more collagen, your body naturally improves the look of any imperfections, minimizes signs of aging and restores a rejuvenated appearance.
