Causes of Stretch Marks
Stretch marks, those unwanted lines on the skin, often appear due to rapid growth, pregnancy, or sudden weight changes. They occur when the skin’s elasticity is put to the test, leaving behind visible reminders. Stretch marks, just after forming are red/pink in colour, but over time, they take on a more silvery or nude colour. Some people are more prone to stretch marks than others.

DEKA SmartXide Touch CO2 Laser Treatment
Eve Clinics proudly uses and champions the DEKA SmartXide Touch CO2 laser, a cutting-edge medical laser for stretch mark removal. This advanced technology works by stimulating collagen production, effectively minimising the appearance of stretch marks.
Collagen is a structural protein that provides strength, firmness, and elasticity to various tissues in the body, including the skin. In the skin, collagen fibers form a network that supports its structure and helps it maintain its shape. The skin’s ability to stretch and bounce back is largely attributed to the presence of collagen.
When the skin is subjected to rapid stretching, such as during pregnancy or rapid weight gain, the normal production of collagen may be disrupted. This can lead to the formation of stretch marks, which are essentially scars that result from the tearing of the dermis, the middle layer of the skin.
The precision of the CO2 laser targets the affected areas, leaving surrounding skin untouched and unharmed. The laser works by removing the top layer of skin in preparation for new, healthy skin to form.
