Stretch marks Microneedling & Camouflage 

Stretch Marks Reduction Treatments 

Stretch marks can appear on any area where fat is stored and can occur when the middle layer of your skin stretches too fast causing some of its collagen fibres to break. As a result, the blood vessels underneath become prominent and appear purple/pink initially and over time fade to white or silver. They tend to look like rippled lines and typically appear on the stomach, arms, hips, thighs, breasts, and posterior.

Although we do endorse being happy in your skin and being proud of your stretch marks, sometimes we understand it can get to some people.

At FTG Clinics we have successfully treated many patients for their stretch marks and offer a number of solutions;

Microneedling

Medical needling, sometimes referred to as inkless camouflage involves using a handheld device that contains both non-invasive and/or very fine needles that are gently pressed on the skin or prick the stretch mark to create channels that trigger a trauma response. This response activates the body’s internal healing mechanism and encourages the natural production of new collagen and elastin, which can lead to improved skin elasticity and overall skin improvement, delivering a visual improvement of stretch marks.

Skin Camouflage Micropigmentation

Skin camouflage with dispersion technique (also known as scar camouflage) is an advanced medical micropigmentation treatment that involves using a digital machine to skillfully implant specialised pigment that is watered down, into the stretch mark, mimicking skin tone to attempt to camouflage your stretch marks into the surrounding skin.

Your journey will begin with an in-depth consultation in which your practitioner will assess your concerns and understand your expectations and what you would like to achieve through the treatment.
