At Dermagyms in Montreal, our stretch mark treatments are designed for lasting removal. Here are the main goals we aim to achieve:
1. Elimination of stretch marks.
2. Improvement of skin texture.
3. Prevention of new stretch marks.
4. Boosting self-confidence.
Stretch marks result from rapid stretching of the skin. In most cases, stretch marks occur due to rapid weight gain, such as during pregnancy, or due to hormonal changes.
Stretch marks appear as streaks (similar to cracks) that tend to be red during the inflammatory phase and eventually turn white over time, resembling scars.
They are most commonly found on the abdomen, breasts, hips, and thighs. It is not uncommon for them to cause discomfort at times.
Over time, some stretch marks may fade, but this can take several years. White stretch marks are difficult to treat, so it is preferable to address them as soon as they appear when they are still red or pink.
Today, there are effective treatments available to reduce or even eliminate stretch marks.
