Stretch marks, those lines that appear on the skin due to physical changes such as growth, pregnancy, weight loss, or weight gain, are a common concern for many individuals. At My Cosmetic Surgery, we understand the importance of feeling comfortable and confident in your body, which is why we offer a striae camouflage treatment designed to help you regain self-confidence and improve your physical appearance.
Our approach focuses on using tattooing techniques to conceal the white lines of stretch marks. This procedure, performed by our specialist in cosmetic procedures, Grether Navarro, has proven to be highly effective in improving the appearance of stretch marks and providing satisfactory results to our patients.
During the initial evaluation, the specialist will determine if you are a suitable candidate for the treatment. It is important to note that striae camouflage is only effective on white stretch marks, and it is recommended that the patient has not had recent sun exposure or tanning sessions before the procedure.
The stretch mark camouflage process involves the use of needles with reduced millimeterage to inject ink with the patient’s natural skin pigment. Although stretch marks may initially become reddish and inflamed, over time they acquire a permanent color that blends with the surrounding skin tone.
The duration of the procedure varies depending on the number of stretch marks to be treated but typically lasts between 1 and 3 hours. We recommend completing the treatment in a single session to ensure optimal results and minimize recovery time.
After approximately 50 days, the patient returns for a touch-up and to ensure uniform pigmentation. During this time, it is important to follow the post-operative instructions provided by our specialist to ensure proper recovery and long-lasting results.
At My Cosmetic Surgery, we pride ourselves on offering personalized, high-quality treatments to help you achieve your aesthetic goals.
