Stretch Mark Specialists FAQ in Coralville, IA

Can you professionally get rid of stretch marks?

Any permanent treatment for stretch marks will involve rebuilding healthy skin tissues beneath the scar and fading the appearance of the current scar. This can be done through exfoliating treatments or specialized laser treatments, including the laser stretch mark removal treatment system at our clinic.

How did The Kardashians avoid stretch marks?

“There is nothing we can do to rid ourselves of them completely, so we say embrace them,” she said. “The best way to treat your stretch marks is actually to love on them,” she said, recommending people exfoliate, stay hydrated, and stay active—all good advice in general.

Do stretch mark creams work?

According to a variety of studies, stretch mark cream has very little proven effectiveness. It might help slightly reduce the appearance of stretch marks, but none have been scientifically proven to completely remove the marks.

Does microneedling work on stretch marks?

Does microneedling work for stretch marks? A study published in Dermatologic Surgery in 2020 investigated the use of microneedling for stretch marks in 25 people. After 1-3 treatments, at least half of the patients had experienced an improvement, and over a quarter experienced an improvement of more than 75%2.

Do chemical peels work on stretch marks?

Since stretch marks originate below the skin’s surface, there is no way to remove these marks completely. However chemical peels can effectively diminish their appearance, while creating a smoother, softer surface to the skin.

Does coconut oil prevent stretch marks?

Stretch marks can’t be removed by using coconut oil or any other topically applied product. But coconut oil may improve the overall appearance of skin, which could reduce the look of stretch marks. It may also promote healing and prevent stretch marks from occurring.

Does Kylie Jenner have stretch mark?

KYLIE Jenner has been praised for showing off her “stretch marks and extra weight” on her postpartum body. The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum, 24, was lauded for “normalizing normal bodies” when she shared a photo of her stomach with her baby son’s feet resting on it.

How does Kim not have stretch marks?

Is stretch marks covered by insurance?

Health insurance isn’t likely to cover stretch mark treatment because it is considered a cosmetic problem, even if they are very noticeable.

Does Bio-Oil work on stretch marks?

Bio-Oil helps to improve the appearance of existing stretch marks formed during pregnancy, teenage growth spurts or periods of rapid weight gain. Although it is more effective on newer stretch marks, older stretch marks will also show some improvement with regular use of Bio-Oil.

Do stretch marks ever look better?

Stretch marks usually fade over time but may not disappear completely. Many creams and lotions claim to prevent, reduce or remove stretch marks. But there’s very little evidence these work. There are some treatments that may help make stretch marks look better, but they will not get rid of them.

How many sessions does it take to get rid of stretch marks?

Three to five sessions are typically recommended to achieve the best results. During the procedure, the laser application may cause some slight discomfort, but anesthetic is not usually needed. Laser stretch mark treatments have few side effects, including some temporary redness and swelling.

What causes permanent stretch marks?

The cause of stretch marks is stretching of the skin. Their severity is affected by several factors, including your genetics and the degree of stress on the skin. Your level of the hormone cortisol also might play a role. Cortisol — a hormone produced by the adrenal glands — weakens elastic fibers in the skin.
