What you need to know about Stretch Marks Removal in Cape Town
Stretch marks are colored lines or bands that usually appear on the abdomen, hips, buttocks, thighs, and breasts. It develops when your skin shrinks or stretches quickly, such as after a rapid weight loss or gain, pregnancy, or rapid muscle growth after weight training. They are essentially tears on the skin. However, they are not an indication of a health issue and do not require medical treatment. If you do not like the appearance of stretch marks on your skin, you can undergo some procedures to make it less noticeable.
There are several procedures available. These include:
-
Microdermabrasion
-
Micro-needling
-
Laser therapy
-
Cosmetic surgery.
Your doctor may recommend you undergo more than one procedure to get the best results.
