Stretch Mark Removal Surgery in Hyderabad

Overview

Stretch marks are bands or lines on the skin caused by the stretching of connective tissues of the skin. Stretch marks are very common and usually occur after massive weight loss, weight fluctuations and pregnancy. These are not painful but can affect the self-confidence and self-esteem of the person. There are number of options to get rid of stretch marks such as oils, creams, home remedies, microdermabrasion, micro-needling, laser therapy, and cosmetic surgery.

Procedure

Micro-needling (induced collagen) is an effective treatment for stretch marks. Micro-needling targets the middle layer (dermis) of the skin. During the procedure, very tinny needles are inserted into the skin to boost the production of collagen. Increased production of elastin and collagen promotes skin regeneration that can reduce stretch marks and improve the appearance of your skin. For the best results, you need to take a series of treatments.

Laser therapy or light therapy is a common treatment to get rid of stretch marks. During the procedure, the laser penetrates into the skin that triggers regeneration. Laser light stimulates the tissues around the stretch marks faster. Laser therapy stimulates the production of melanin in the affected area that activates pigment cells in the skin. It helps the stretch marks to blend with normal skin tone. It requires a series of procedures.

Cosmetic surgery also helps remove the stretch marks from your body. Cosmetic procedures like a tummy tuck (abdominoplasty) and thigh lift not just remove stretch marks from your body but also remove excess fat from the area. These cosmetic procedures give a flatter and firmer look to your skin and the stretch marks get removed with excess skin.

After the procedure (what to expect, recovery and results)

You may notice little tenderness and redness in the treated area immediately after the treatment. It is very normal. Your skin heals within a few days. There is no downtime and minimal discomfort after the procedure. The person can immediately return to daily activities and can return to work the next day after the procedure. Usually, the results of stretch marks removal treatments are impressive and depend on the type, depth, and maturation of stretch marks. Make sure you follow all post-care instructions given by your surgeon for better outcomes.
