Stretch marks are caused rapid stretching of the skin, leading to breakage of the skin’s collagen. Stretch marks are best thought of as depressed scars, where the normal skin structure has been significantly injured and the collagen broken and replaced by fibrous tissue. They can be red or white. Generally red stretch marks are more responsive to treatment than white stretch marks.
Skin Needling for stretch marks may assist rebuilding the structure of the skin via collagen induction. The Clearskincare Skin & Scalp Roller has 2 main actions on the skin. The first is to create tiny channels through the Stratum Corneum, the outermost layer of the skin, to allow active ingedients to penetrate through to the dermis. The second action of the Skin & Scalp Roller is dermal massage. Dermal massage assists the body’s natural collagen production mechanism.
