What are stretch marks or striae
Stretch marks or striae are a cosmetic defect of the skin. They appear when changes occur in the human body. The elasticity of the epidermis is disturbed and the skin breaks under tension.
Wikipedia describes stretch marks as scarring of the skin, occurring where the skin is stretched and internally torn. Externally, it appears as narrow, crinkly stripes. Stretch marks can be 2 to 6 mm wide and up to 10 cm long, on average. By color, you can determine how long ago they appeared. Young striae have a reddish-pink color. Gradually the stretch marks turn pale, after a few years they become completely white and resemble scars.
The most susceptible to stretch marks are people whose BMI (body mass index) exceeds 30. Also in the risk group are bodybuilders – in them this skin defect appears on the shoulders and back.
The risk of developing stretch marks is increased due to genetic predisposition. If your mother or grandmother had stretch marks after pregnancy, chances are you will too.
Genetically, absolutely all information about a person is laid down, including the skin’s ability to stretch.
Stretch mark removal with laser
Laser Stretch Mark Removal is an effective procedure that allows you to get rid of unpleasant skin imperfections. Stretch marks (or striae) appear on the skin as a result of rapid growth or weight loss, pregnancy, changes in hormone levels, as well as due to a disruption in the structure of connective tissue. This problem is solved by aesthetic medicine in both women and men.
The treatment is performed with the help of a special apparatus, which affects the skin with a laser beam. The advantages of this procedure are that it does not require a long recovery period and does not leave scars on the skin.
Laser stretch mark removal can be performed on different areas of the body such as the abdomen, breasts, thighs, buttocks and arms. The duration of the procedure depends on the number of stretch marks and their severity. Usually, for the best results, it is necessary to go to a medical center or clinic for several sessions.
Laser therapy is the most effective medical method to date to remove stretch marks from the entire body. Laser stretch mark removal in Kiev gives better results than plastic surgery.
What gives and why you need the procedure of laser stretch mark removal:
The treatment is used to correct imperfections on different parts of the body. The most commonly affected areas are:
- belly
- hips
- shins
- buttocks
Why do stretch marks appear
Due to stretching of the skin and disruption of the structure of the connective tissue, the elastin and collagen fibers in it are torn. Stretch marks, which are nothing but atrophic scars, appear in place of microtraumas.
The main causes of stretch marks:
- A sudden change in body weight
- Hormonal imbalance
- Regular intake of hormonal medications
- After pregnancy and childbirth
- Genetics
Stretch marks during pregnancy and after childbirth:
During pregnancy, a woman may have the following causes of stretch marks:
- hereditary predisposition;
- The skin does not have time to stretch without damage from the growing belly;
- lack of proper care, quality moisturizing of the skin;
- hormonal disorders.
All of these reasons increase the likelihood of having strictures, which will become especially noticeable after childbirth.
Stretch marks after weight loss:
Stretch marks occur at the time of weight gain, but they become more noticeable after weight loss. Stretch marks prevent the skin from returning to its original state, aggravating its sagging.
Stretch marks on the abdomen, inner thighs and arms are especially noticeable after weight loss. They prevent the skin from tightening again and create unsightly bags and folds.
Stretch marks in a teenager:
In adolescents, stretch marks are associated with rapid growth and have a special localization. Most often they can be found on the shoulders, legs, buttocks, back. In girls – on the breasts, buttocks, abdomen.
An important factor is the hormonal shake-up of the body that occurs during adolescence. This also becomes the reason for the appearance of striae.
Stretch marks in men:
Some people think that stretch marks are exclusively a woman’s problem. This is a misconception. Men can also have stretch marks. This occurs with weight gain or loss, or with hormonal disorders. And also stretch marks often accompany athletes, bodybuilders, actively gaining muscle mass. Torn fibers of connective tissue connective tissue overstretched skin that has not had time to grow behind the muscles.
What’s the treatment
We use two types of lasers for laser stretch mark removal:
- The newest and most modern CO2 laser Coolaser, the best existing device for non-invasive skin resurfacing. The principle of its work lies in the operation of the thinnest laser beam (85 microns), which is able to penetrate to a given depth. Laser beam pointwise vaporizes moisture from damaged cells, destroying them. In their place, healthy tissue is regenerated. Laser skin care will provide effective stretch mark removal and improved quality of life.
- The most powerful Adonyss on the medical market, used for complex and severe pathologies. Laser therapy with this laser will not only remove stretch marks on the body but also provide laser rejuvenation.
Coolaser CO2 has the advantage of using the thinnest and most precise laser beam available. It only targets the area of concern without harming the healthy skin around the problem. The effect is so delicate that healing is much faster than similar procedures with other lasers. Coolaser’s innovative skin care techniques guarantee effective stretch mark removal with minimal rehabilitation time.
How many treatments are needed to remove stretch marks
The duration of the course “Laser Stretch Mark Removal depends on many factors, but on average it is 4 – 6 sessions with an interval of 1 month:
What the number of treatments depends on:
- age of stretch marks – how long ago they appeared on the body; color. Red young (easier to treat) – occur in the early stages, this is the inflammatory phase. White old (treated more difficult and longer) – already healed rubes in the atrophic phase;
- treatment area
It may take a certain number of treatments to achieve the ideal result. Even after the first session, the striae become less visible.
In complex cases, sometimes it takes up to 10 treatments to completely say goodbye to the problem. To maintain the effect, it is recommended to repeat the course once a year. This will prevent the appearance of new signs of skin stretching. Other procedures performed by our specialists can also serve as a preventive measure.

Why combine laser stretch mark removal with plasmolifting if the result is already promised? .
The combination of the main procedure with plasmolifting is not necessary, but it is indeed, in some cases, will achieve a better effect. Laser can only remove existing stretch marks, and the introduction of plasma will affect the striae, which are just outlined. They are not yet visible, but in places where the skin is stretched, there are already traces of tears.
The main reasons for using plasmolifting are as follows:
- Plasmolifting alone can not remove striae, but plasmolifting helps to remove red stretch marks in combination with laser;
- it significantly reduces the healing time after exposure to the laser.
Plasmolifting is the injection of blood plasma into problem areas. This helps to improve the external characteristics of the skin, giving a youthful appearance. In this way it is possible to fight not only stretch marks, but almost any skin problems and diseases.

The use of stem cells in cosmetology is not yet widespread, but our specialists have the necessary skills. Progressive medicine offers new ways to solve aesthetic problems.
It has been proven by research that stem cells prolong youth. The more of them in the body, the higher the regenerative abilities of the skin and connective tissue. This is why babies at the embryonic stage do not have scars. Introducing them into the adult body also increases healing capacity and speeds up the healing of wounds and scars. There is a significant increase in the likelihood of getting rid of young stretch marks.
