WHAT CAUSES STRETCH MARKS?
Stretch marks are a very common occurrence, with most people likely to experience this at least once in their lives. During rapid growth or quick weight gain cycles, fine lines might begin forming as the sudden increase in stress makes it difficult for the skin to adjust. This disrupts the usual production of collagen required by the skin, resulting in connective tissue not growing normally. This will lead to your skin tearing as the lack of collagen means it cannot increase its elasticity. Stretch marks are most commonly experienced during pregnancies, or puberty for both sexes.
WHY CHOOSE SILKPEEL
One step above microdermabrasion, SilkPeel Dermalinfusion is a very similar type of treatment. exfoliating the upper layers of your skin with a diamond head, this removes any dead skin cells on the surface. With vacuum pressure, your skin is pulled into a chamber within the hand piece, where gentle or aggressive abrasion takes place depending on the required intensity.
At the dermal junction where fresh skin cells are formed to replace the dead ones, a topical serum will be infused – this is what separates the treatment from microdermabrasion. This will also trigger the production of fresh collagen in your skin, which helps the skin mend itself. The fresh reserves of skin cells and collagen will help to get rid of the fine lines and marks caused by stretching, working to maintain the youthful appearance of your skin.
Effectively transforming your skin, a visible improvement should be noticeable following the first treatment session. Your skin should continue improving after each session, with all session spaced about 2 weeks apart during the initial cycle. During the next cycle of treatments, it will take place in larger intervals. Your doctor will offer advice and recommend a suitable number of treatment sessions in order for you to get best results.
POST-TREATMENT
