Stretch marks can be very difficult to get rid of because they occur just below the epidermis or the surface of the skin.  What happens is that the second layer known as the dermis tears and reddening will occur where the tearing has appeared.

If not corrected or properly treated, these tears will end up becoming silvery lines that are visible on the surface of the skin.  These are what stretch marks are: scars.  And the best way to get rid of them is to go through cosmetic laser treatment for stretch marks.

What It Is

The Treatment - Laser treatment to get rid of stretch marks is exactly what it sounds like: it involves a real laser that is run over your body, specifically around areas where stretch marks are present.  The laser beam is able to clear or fix the areas where stretch marks occur by "sewing up" the torn areas of the dermis.

The fix is so effective that it will be permanent and you will not have visible stretch marks on the areas where you had the laser treat you.  Laser treatment is not an easy thing to do and it takes a specialist to use the actual machine.  That specialist must also have knowledge in cosmetic or dermatologic surgery.

What Does "Sewing Up" Mean?

Laser treatment involves a process where the surrounding skin of a stretch mark is targeted.  Since a stretch mark is essentially a scar on the skin, the laser will then be focused to removing different layers of it as a scar and the process is then repeated until the whole stretch mark is removed.  The area will then be left to heal and it will eventually as the new layers of skin start to form again naturally.

How Effective Is The Treatment?

The laser treatment is not only used to get rid of stretch marks.  This treatment has been designed and used to get rid of various skin conditions, regardless if they were caused naturally or not.  This laser treatment is so effective that it can also get rid of wrinkles, scars, all types of acne, tattoos, and even facial or body hair.  It is even said that a successful procedure will result in skin being in a much better condition that it was before.

Is It A Painful Treatment?

Cosmetic laser treatment for stretch marks is not as painful as people who have gone through it say.  Still, those who give the treatment also will apply anesthesia if it is something you think you will need.  Many people have stated that although there is a little pain, it is something that is bearable.
