What is the most effective way to remove stretch marks and firm the skin?

Births, weight loss, weight gain and even maturity - all of these can leave unwanted stretch marks on our bodies. How exactly is this caused and what are the recommended solutions and treatments?

There is hardly a woman who does not know the phenomenon - and closely. Stretch marks on the skin, and especially on the lower body - waist, lower abdomen, hips ... These are especially common after birth, but also after extreme weight changes - such as significant weight loss or dramatic weight gain. Occasionally, signs also come of development and accelerated growth in the latter stages of adolescence.

The bright (or dark) lines appear on the body, and do not make any signs of disappearing in any way and even if we know it is coming - it is very difficult to prevent the phenomenon in advance. In many cases, oils that are applied to the abdomen throughout the pregnancy may not help prevent the signs.

why is it happening? The skin's support layer is made up of collagen and elastin fibers, and they are responsible for its elasticity. When the skin stretches faster than it can contain (as in the cases we have described here), these fibers lose their elasticity and tear, or break. This creates a kind of inverted "scar" - which appears on the inside of the skin but looks good on the outside.

In most cases, at first, the signs will appear as pinkish-purple or brown stripes and their color will fade over time. Later on, they will get the natural color of the skin, but will still be clearly seen as unstressed skin tissue or scar.

Is there a way to prevent and treat stretch marks?

As in many cases, unfortunately here too - genetics plays a major role. But there is always how to help it and delay or lessen the negative phenomena that may come. In the case of prevention and reduction of stretch marks, it is advisable to adopt a high protein diet (eggs and fish for example) and vitamins rich in fruits and vegetables - all promote skin health and elasticity, and of course drink plenty of water, which will moisturize skin and protect it from dehydration. Also, from the outside, there is how to help the skin stay supple and vital, by applying rich, nourishing creams daily and frequently.

If the damage has already been done and the signs of traction signal us that they are here to stay - this is where technology enters the story. The whole range of problems we have mentioned and the desire to look young, shapely and fresh are bringing more and more women and men to have a tummy tuck.

Dramatic results - painless and healing time

Laser Care explains that the most recommended stretch marks for stretch marks are those that tighten the skin and blur the scarred tissue. This war of attrition with tricks can be won and put to the brink of cutting edge, in a professional environment with advanced technology solutions.

Care works with the ACCENT Pro system, which uses radio waves (RF) technology to treat skin firming. It does this by controlled and gentle warming of the deep skin layer and the subcutaneous fat, which accelerates the skin restoration process and the growth of new, healthy and smooth skin cells. Parallel to heating with radio wave technology, micro-plasma technology creates a controlled upper-layer skin cell injury to cause the skin to be peeled and consequently renewed. The combination of the two technologies results in particularly dramatic results. And the good news really? This treatment is painless and requires no healing time.
