Stretch mark removal with microneedles: improve skin texture long term and painlessly

What are stretch marks and why do they form?

Stretch marks most often develop when our skin has to quickly adapt to an increase in the volume of tissue beneath it. This rapid stretching occurs, for example, during puberty, pregnancy, rapid muscle growth, or sudden weight gain. Stretch marks can vary in color, ranging from purple and red to brown and white. The areas most prone to stretch marks include the thighs, abdomen, buttocks, and arms.

Although stretch marks do not pose a health risk, they are a cosmetic concern for many of us. Since we cannot always prevent stretch marks with 100% certainty, our clinic offers proven methods for their removal. For this purpose, we use the latest micro-needling method combined with radiofrequency.

Permanent removal of stretch marks using the microneedling method with radiofrequency

At the Dermaestet clinic, we use microneedling technology combined with radiofrequency for the long-term removal of stretch marks. This combined method uses gold-plated needles to penetrate deep into the skin, where it stimulates collagen remodeling. Through precisely targeted volumetric heating, skin texture is improved, the skin is tightened, and unsightly stretch marks are removed.

Visible results without surgery or scars

The treatment uses microneedles that heat the tissue in the deeper layers of the skin to a therapeutic temperature of 50 °C. The combination of gentle mechanical and thermal stimulation of the skin results in increased collagen production. Thanks to the gentle nature of the device, no extensive recovery period is required after the procedure.

One of the biggest advantages of this method is its speed and effectiveness. Visible changes in the skin’s appearance are noticeable immediately after the first treatment and will continue to improve over time. However, we recommend repeating the treatment three times at monthly intervals.

A safe method for removing stretch marks for all skin types

Another advantage of radiofrequency skin rejuvenation is the safety of the treatment. The precise microneedles do not cause bleeding or swelling. During the treatment, Endymed continuously monitors the skin’s electrical resistance to ensure optimal energy delivery to the target area. Thanks to the precise targeting of the treatment area and energy delivery, hypopigmentation or hyperpigmentation does not occur. However, adequate sun protection (sunscreen and clothing) is necessary for at least one week after the procedure, depending on the treated area.

What the examination involves and what the recovery process is like

Preparation for the procedure begins at home. One hour before the procedure, apply Emla numbing cream—which you’ll receive at our clinic—to the treatment area. The cream maximizes your comfort during the procedure. Recovery follows the procedure itself. However, it is minimal, so you can undergo stretch mark removal even during the summer months with adequate sun protection. If the stretch marks were caused by rapid weight gain, you may also consider fat removal via lipolysis or laser liposuction.
