Stretch Mark Treatment in Canberra
Stretch marks are part of so many life stories. If you'd like to soften their appearance, we're here to help, gently and without judgement.
Pregnancy, growth spurts, weight changes, training hard in the gym. Stretch marks are incredibly common, and for many people they're simply part of their story. For others, they're something they'd love to feel less self-conscious about, at the beach, in the change room or in a favourite outfit. Both feelings are completely valid.
At Skin Wellness Academy, we offer fractional plasma resurfacing for stretch marks on the belly, as part of a personalised plan.
What are stretch marks?
Stretch marks form when skin stretches quickly and the supporting collagen and elastin in the deeper layer of the skin are disrupted. They often start red, pink or purple and gradually fade to a paler, silvery colour, with a slightly different texture from the skin around them.
How we help
Your journey starts with a Skin Strategy Session, where we assess your stretch marks, skin type and history, and talk through what's realistic. A patch test appointment may be required before your first plasma treatment.
Alma Opus Plasma Resurfacing uses fractional radiofrequency energy to create controlled micro-injuries, which trigger collagen renewal as the skin repairs. A course is usually needed, and changes develop gradually.
