Elastin and collagen in the dermis layer of the skin gives elasticity to the skin and makes it look healthy and tight. Damage and detachment on these two important proteins and the weakening of the bonds between the fibers lead to striae (stretch marks).
UltraDerm stretch mark treatment is carried out with two different protocols as high- or mid-molecular level.
- The striae after pregnancy and weight loss/gain typically form on the tummy, waist and breasts, and they are in relation with the surface dermis. Mid-molecular level UltraDerm Procedure is applied for the treatment of these striae. In this protocol, two different vectors on striae and lines are handled. While the skin structure may vary according to the severity of the dermal tear and age, UltraDerm Protocol may provide a very high level of recovery. Collagen production is reinvigorated for long-term, and the amount of quality collagen in subcutaneous collagen tissue is increased.
- The striae that emerge during growth are mostly seen on the legs, buttocks and arms. The stretch marks that emerge at younger ages are treated with high-molecular UltraDerm protocol. These striae that emerge during or immediately after puberty may hold the entire dermis, or more rarely, the epidermis. High-molecular UltraDerm Protocol is applied in three vectors. Collagen production and quality is maintained on a high level.
On both protocols:
- Skin PH is balanced with special solutions
- Dermal and subdermal blood flow is sped up with topical formula and vacuum
- Home follow-up products are used to sooth, repair and nourish the skin layers
- Fractional Laser is applied to shorten and tighten the dermal collagen
