How to Get Rid of Stretch Marks

Men and women both experience stretch marks. They are embarrassing and hard to get rid of, or so we think. With today's medical technology, stretch marks can actually be a thing in the past. Stretch marks result from skin that has been overstretched. It can be overstretched from pregnancy, body building, and extreme weight gain. They can be found anywhere on the body, but most commonly abdomen, breasts, buttocks, legs and upper arms.

The Fraxel laser, a non ablative laser can now reduce, if not eliminate the appearance of stretch marks. The fresher and newer stretch marks are (typically less than 5 years) the better the results. This does not mean that older stretch marks cannot be treated. You will see a reduction, however the results are not the same as the fresh new ones.

Fraxel gently kills off damaged tissue and leaving you with soft smooth skin. It works by creating tiny wounds deep in the skin This triggers the body´s natural healing process to remodel collagen and replace damaged tissue with younger, smoother, healthier skin. And since Fraxel is a fractionated laser, it only treats a fraction of your skin ata time leaving the surrounding tissue intact and therefore helping your skin heal much faster. Results are beautiful smooth skin with no downtime (except with some redness and downtime). For more information or if you would like to schedule a complimentary consultation to see if Fraxel can help with your stretch marks, call Jardin Medical Spa at 484-562-0591 or visit www.jardinmedical.com, a leader in fraxel philadelphia.
