About Stretch mark removal

Stretch marks, medically known as ‘Striae’, are a form of scarring on the skin due to being stretched rapidly. They are irregular lines that appear as parallel streaks of red or brown, thinned glossy skin that eventually can become white over time. They are perfectly natural and harmless to the skin and normally present themselves during or after pregnancy, results of weight gain/loss and finally in puberty, where adolescents tend to have growth spirts.

Common areas to notice stretch marks are the abdomen area, thighs, breasts, buttocks, hips and lower back although they are not limited to these areas. Stretch marks can sometimes fade on their own, however it is unlikely for them to completely disappear as they result from a tear in the deeper layers on the skin after being extremely stretched.

Although the skin is elastic, when it becomes overstretched it effects the production of collagen in that area. The normal production of collagen, which is the major protein that makes up the connective tissue with the skin, is then disrupted and as a result of this stretch marks and scars can form.

While stretch marks are not detrimental to physical health, the appearance of them can trigger many body insecurities. At BPC we offer a range of different treatments that can help with this condition, these are:

  • Micro-needling & Medical Grade Skin Peels
  • PicoWay® Laser
