Stretch Marks

Viora’s stretch mark reduction treatments can also be applied to other types of body scars, such as post-operative or C-section scars. The light absorption of 580 nm cut-off filter of the V-IPL handpiece or 1064 nm V-Nd:YAG Laser (PCR™ Technology) handpiece, provides specialized and controlled tissue trauma to activate the body’s healing process through the production of new skin cells and destruction of fibrotic tissue in the stretch mark.

For patients with a tendency to PIH, the V-IPL treatment can also be useful to remove hyperpigmentation that often appears over the stretch mark and body scars. The V-ST handpiece (CORE™ Technology) provides stimulation for neocollagenesis essential for the improvement in the appearance of the stretch marks.

Reduce your stretch marks, so your skin will look smooth again!

Stretch marks, or striae, are caused by the tearing of the dermis associated with rapid volume change (rapid weight gain, pregnancy, etc.). They often begin as red or purple marks and slowly fade to white or silver over time. The difference in color distinguishes how old the marks are. Though they may never disappear completely, treatment can reduce the size and lighten the color to match more closely the surrounding healthy tissue.

Viora is committed to providing safe, healthy treatments with minimum discomfort and maximum results for dramatically reducing the appearance of the stretch marks.

• Start the treatment as quickly as possible – red stretch marks react better to the treatment
• Use self-tanner instead of natural tanning – natural tanning can make stretch marks more noticeable, while self-tanning can camouflage them.
