How does the laser treatment of stretch marks work?
When the laser is applied to the treated area, thousands of small columns are made, which during the treatment attract the nearby tissues and in this way the scar area is smoothed. Conditions are created for the skin to regenerate. The laser pulses form thousands of micropillars of the required depth and diameter in both the epidermis and the true skin. The surrounding tissues remain intact, they promote healing, collagen production, thus helping the skin to fill the formed micropillars with new strong tissue. The treated skin fills the grooves formed during the skin tear. The CO2 laser uses a wavelength of 10,600 nm, which is ideal for renewing the collagen matrix and the optimal choice for treating many dermatological problems. The CO2 laser has the ability to perform efficient, highly precise fractional and non-fractional laser procedures using the widest range of advanced applicators.
