FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions :

Unfortunately, there is no guaranteed way to completely eliminate stretch marks. However, various treatments can significantly improve their appearance, making them less noticeable.

The most effective treatment for your stretch marks will depend on several factors, including their age, colour, and severity. Here’s a general breakdown:

  • For newer stretch marks (red or purple): Topical retinoids and microneedling are often recommended as they can help improve texture and colour.
  • For older stretch marks (white or silver): Laser treatments and chemical peels may be more effective in stimulating collagen production and reducing visibility.

A consultation with our qualified professional at Yorkshire Skin Centre can help determine the best course of treatment for your specific needs.

The number of treatments needed will vary depending on the severity of your stretch marks and the chosen treatment method.  Typically, multiple sessions are recommended for optimal results.

Are stretch mark treatments painful?

Most stretch mark treatments are minimally invasive and well-tolerated.  Some, like microneedling, may cause mild discomfort, but topical numbing cream can be applied beforehand to minimise any sensation.

Potential side effects can vary depending on the treatment. Topical creams may cause mild irritation. Laser treatments and microneedling can cause temporary redness, swelling, or bruising. It’s important to discuss potential side effects with your doctor during your consultation.

The results of stretch mark treatments can be long-lasting, especially with proper skincare and maintaining a healthy weight. However, some improvement may fade over time. Consulting with a professional about maintenance treatments can help extend the results.

While there’s no guaranteed way to prevent stretch marks completely, maintaining a healthy weight, staying hydrated, and using a good moisturiser can help improve skin elasticity and potentially reduce the risk of their formation.

No, some stretch mark treatments, certain laser treatments, are not recommended during pregnancy. It’s important to consult with your doctor before undergoing any stretch mark treatment while pregnant or breastfeeding.

Blepharoplasty

Blepharoplasty, also known as an eye lift, is a surgical procedure performed on the eyelids to improve their appearance. It can address concerns like:

  • Excess skin on the upper eyelids: This can obstruct vision and create a hooded appearance.

  • Bags under the lower eyelids: These can make you look tired or aged.

  • Drooping lower eyelids: This can also obstruct vision and contribute to a tired appearance.


Types of Blepharoplasty:

  • Upper blepharoplasty: This addresses concerns with the upper eyelids, removing excess skin and sometimes fat or muscle tissue.

  • Lower blepharoplasty: This addresses concerns with the lower eyelids, removing excess fat or skin and sometimes repositioning tissues.

  • Asian blepharoplasty: This addresses specific concerns related to the anatomy of Asian eyelids, creating a more defined crease.
