Stretchmarks: An Overview

Do your stretch marks prevent you from wearing your favorite shorts or bathing suit? Are you frustrated with all the "miracle" creams? If so, call Southern Oregon Laser Center. We're experts at using state-of-the-art laser technology to eliminate stretch marks.

Cosmetic lasers are a new and revolutionary method for eliminating stretch marks. Unlike traditional treatments like gels and creams, we use laser technology to stimulate new collagen growth and fill the stretch mark from the bottom up. The laser energy is absorbed in the dermal (lower) layer of the skin stimulating the body to produce new collagen. As the new collagen thickens and plumps the skin, it fills in the stretch mark from below.

Instead of hiding your stretch marks, come to Southern Oregon Laser Center and let us help you show off a whole new you. Our knowledgeable and courteous medical staff are available to answer all of your questions and will help you select the best treatment option. Contact us now or come to our conveniently located offices for a free consultation. Don't wait! You'll be amazed at how great you can look!

What Causes Stretch Marks?
Stretch marks are caused when the skin is overstressed in a very short period of time. When this happens, the collagen and elastin that form the building blocks of the skin are broken down. In addition, your predisposition to stretch marks is genetically linked and some individuals are more likely than others to get them.

Can stretch marks be treated?
Stretch marks can be treated successfully. At Southern Oregon Laser Center, we use the most up to date laser technology to stimulate the development of new collagen, which fills the void where the mark exists.
