Strech Marks

A stretch mark is a type of scar that develops when our skin stretches or shrinks quickly. The abrupt change causes the collagen and elastin, which support our skin, to rupture. As the skin heals, stretch marks may appear.

Secret RF

Secret RF is a radiofrequency microneedling treatment that can be used to reduce the appearance of stretch marks

How it works

The treatment uses radiofrequency energy to create heat under the skin, which triggers the body’s natural healing process to produce collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid. This remodeling of the skin can improve the appearance of stretch marks.

What to expect

The treatment involves cleansing the skin, applying a numbing cream, and then using a handpiece to deliver radiofrequency energy to the treatment area. You might feel some pressure and slight heating, but the procedure is generally tolerable.

Results

Most patients see improvement after the second treatment, but optimal results are usually achieved after 3–4 treatments spaced 4–6 weeks apart.
