Microdermabrasion: Say Goodbye To Your Stretch Marks

Are you plagued by stretch marks? If you are, you are definitely not alone

. Many people get them in various places on their bodies due to excess weight loss or pregnancy or some other reason. The worst ones are formed are the ones that are formed from pregnancy. These marks that form on the lower abdomen can stretch to the breastbone and also can form on the back area, upper buttocks and thighs.

The ones on the abdomen seem to plague many women's senses of self-esteem. Women rub creams on their bellies during pregnancy and do their best not to gain too much weight. In fact, this might happen regardless of all efforts. Stretch marks are not always a sign of weight gain in pregnancy, but rather a sign of your skin losing elasticity. Making room for a baby is hard work.

After pregnancy is over, the stretch marks are there to stay with you! There are many things you can do to treat this problem. One option is microdermabrasion. The way that microdermabrasion works is this: The top layer is blasted with fine crystals that help to break down the top layer of skin. These are then removed and they take along dead skin cells with it. This leaves an area of skin that has to regrow new cells.

Microdermabrasion does have home options, but it is best to go to a dermatologist who will be able to fine tune the process to your individual needs. Stretch marks are not formed on the epidermis, the top layer, but on the middle layer, called the dermis. It is important to note that microdermabrasion will not erase stretch marks because it only hits the top layer of skin. However, it will dramatically reduce the appearance of them.

One other thing that happens in this process of regrowing new cells is that collagen production goes way up. More collagen production means that your skin is also becoming more elastic. This will help these stretch marks essentially begin to cave in on themselves. This caving in will have the effect of making the marks thinner and lighter, thus making them less visible.

Repeated treatments will help make the areas around them more smooth, which will also reduce them in appearance, size and texture. Having a doctor help you with this process has big promise of helping you get the nice looking belly area that you want.
