Stretch marks
Stretch marks are a common concern because they can affect the appearance and texture of the skin, leading to self-consciousness and reduced confidence. These marks, which appear as streaks or lines on the skin, are typically caused by rapid skin stretching due to factors like pregnancy, weight gain, or growth spurts. They result from the breakdown of collagen and elastin fibres in the skin, making them difficult to treat with skincare products alone.
Non-surgical treatments offer effective solutions for reducing the appearance of stretch marks. Procedures such as microneedling, and radiofrequency treatments can significantly improve skin texture and tone. They work by stimulating collagen production and breaking down the pigment in stretch marks, leading to smoother and more even skin. These micro-injuries promote natural healing and collagen production. Radiofrequency treatments use heat to tighten the skin and stimulate collagen, enhancing skin elasticity.
Patients opting for these treatments can expect a reduction in the visibility of stretch marks, smoother skin, and improved skin texture. These minimally invasive procedures offer long-lasting results with minimal downtime, boosting confidence and restoring a more youthful appearance to the skin.
Treatment options
Microneedling
A microneedling and mesotherapy facial combines two advanced skin rejuvenation techniques to enhance skin health and appearance. Microneedling involves using tiny needles to create micro-injuries on the skin, stimulating natural collagen and elastin production, which helps reduce scars and wrinkles. Mesotherapy complements this by infusing vitamins, enzymes, and other revitalising substances directly into the skin, promoting hydration and elasticity. This dual treatment effectively rejuvenates the skin, improving texture, firmness, and overall skin tone, making it a popular choice for those seeking comprehensive facial rejuvenation.
Morpheus8
Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to target the deeper layers of the skin, promoting extensive collagen production and fat remodelling (on body). This advanced treatment tightens, lifts, and rejuvenates the skin, effectively reducing wrinkles, acne scars, and sagging across both the face and body. By penetrating subdermal layers, Morpheus8 delivers more dramatic and comprehensive results than traditional microneedling, leading to smoother, firmer, and more youthful skin. This minimally invasive procedure is versatile, allowing customisation for different skin types and concerns, making it a popular choice for those seeking significant aesthetic improvements without extensive downtime.
