LED Light Therapy For Stretch Marks

Stretch marks are a normal part of pregnancy. However many women feel self conscious once their pregnancy is over and they still have these unsightly marks. LED light therapy for stretch marks is one of the newest treatment options for this problem. There are a few different ways to treat the problem of stretch marks with light. One method is to use blue light on stretch marks. Blue light is also commonly used to treat acne. The light is applied to the affected area and over time the stretch marks may become diminished. This therapy is non-invasive and painless, making it the preferred method for many skin care professionals.


Your dermatologist may also offer pulsed light therapy to remove your stretch marks. Basically, a stretch mark is like a scar, so any treatment that will lighten scars is a good treatment for stretch marks. Sometimes light therapy will be used in conjunction with topical creams to help lighten the appearance of stretch marks. One thing you should know is that 100 percent removal of the marks is never guaranteed. While light therapy may help reduce the appearance of stretch marks it may not remove them completely. There are all kinds of topical products that work well in conjunction with light therapy treatment.

If you want to try light therapy on your blemishes and stretch marks, speak with a dermatologist. He or she can educate you further on the advantages and disadvantages of treating stretch marks using this method. You may also want to consider a home use device. These devices aren't nearly as powerful as what you'll find at the dermatologist but they are great for supplementing professional treatment sessions. Using home treatment can also help cut costs as light therapy in a professional office can be costly. It may take several sessions before results are obtained.

LED light therapy for stretch marks may not be covered under your insurance plan because it is considered a cosmetic procedure. However many dermatologists offer convenient financing plans to help you cover the cost. You don't have to feel self conscious about your stretch marks anymore. With the wide range of treatment options available such as LED light those unsightly marks can be a thing of the past.
