Pregnancy Stretch Marks: Remove Them With Microdermabrasion

Pregnancy Stretch Marks: Remove Them With Microdermabrasion

By:


Most women will get stretch marks during pregnancy, however, the number one reason they get these scars isn't always due to rapid weight gain. In fact, some people get stretch marks because their parents had stretch marks.

Many women believe that they are condemned to live with stretch marks, but this is not entirely true. As a matter of fact, several different procedures and treatments exist that can help you reduce the appearance of stretch marks. Procedures such as surgery, laser therapy, and other resurfacing techniques are quite popular for treating this type of skin condition.

Surgery may be an effective way to eliminate pregnancy stretch marks, especially because it can get rid of loose skin, too. However, stretch marks usually appear on other areas like the upper arms and breast. These cannot really be treated by a surgical procedure.

For some people laser therapy can be a good choice, however, the cost of the treatment may be too elevated for their budget. Other resurfacing techniques (like chemical peels and dermabrasion) can be painful and require a couple of weeks of recovery.

Stretch Mark Removal & Microdermabrasion

Microdermabrasion is considered to be the gentlest form of resurfacing the skin. It will take longer to produce the desired results, but you will have a greater control over the procedure. A normal session may last 40 minutes to 1 hour.

Microdermabrasion inflicts a small amount of "damage" to the treated area with the use of abrasive micro-crystals. The body responds to this injury by producing new, healthier cells to displace the damaged skin cells. You should notice a difference in your stretch marks after several sessions.

Aluminum oxide and sodium bicarbonate crystals are the most common materials used for traditional microdermabrasion. Neither one is toxic or expensive.

Unlike any other resurfacing technique, microdermabrasion, can be used anywhere on the body. This procedure can help rejuvenate your skin by eliminating fine lines, wrinkles, and even age spots. In fact, you can undergo this type of treatment once every six months as part of your anti aging routine.

If you're worried and think that you can't afford this type of treatment or any other, for that matter, then you should try using a home microdermabrasion cream that works much like traditional microdermabrasion. In this case, micro-crystals are added to a cream base so that it is easier to apply at home. Be aware, however, that microdermabrasion creams are much more gentle than traditional microdermabrasion and will therefore, take longer to show positive results.

As a matter of fact, some microdermabrasion creams are so gentle that you can use them on a daily basis, unlike traditional microdermabrasion. Some creams even contain soothing ingredients that help relieve any irritation that the micro-crystals can cause.
