Let us explore the options for specialised stretch mark treatments at Oliva, Bangalore.
What Are Stretch Marks?
Medically referred to as striae, stretch marks are longitudinal scars that appear on the skin due to excessive stretching. When the skin stretches beyond its capacity, the supportive proteins collagen and elastin break, resulting in stretch marks.
Common in men and women across all age groups, stretch marks vary by length, colour, causes, location, and skin type. Newer stretch marks appear as bright red/pink, black, purple, or blue, streaks that fade into silvery lines over time, without any treatment.
Causes & Symptoms Of Stretch Marks
Stretch marks appear due to:
- Puberty-related growth spurts
- Sudden weight gain or loss
- Pregnancy
- Stress or injuries that cause increased adrenal cortisone synthesis.
- Medical conditions such as Cushing Syndrome and Marfan Syndrome.
- People with a family history of stretch marks due to reduced collagen and fibronectin gene expression.
- Prolonged use of oral and topical corticosteroids.
The most common symptoms of stretch marks are:
- Formation of painless elevated, reddish, brown, or purplish-pink striations that may itch.
- With time, the colour fades, and they take the form of narrow white-hued bands sunken under the skin.

Any of the following conditions may put you at a greater risk of getting stretch marks:
- Having undergone abrupt weight loss or gain
- Pregnancy, particularly the last trimester
- Family history of stretch marks
- Obesity
- Sustained use of corticosteroid medications owing to medical negligence
- Genetic or endocrine disorders like Marfan or Cushing syndrome, respectively

Stretch Mark Treatments at Oliva
At Oliva, Bangalore, we understand the specific requirements of each individual. Our experts design unique treatment plans, recommending one or more of the following procedures:
Topical Products: Topical treatment for stretch marks includes the application of retinoids, glycolic, and hyaluronic acid directly on the affected area. This is a long-term treatment that aims to reduce the formation of stretch marks. This treatment may not give the desired results on older stretch marks as they lack tissue activity and cannot repair or regenerate easily.
Micro-needling Radiofrequency (MnRF): Specialists at Oliva are proficient in utilising the Secret RF equipment for advanced stretch marks treatment in Bangalore. Secret RF uses radiofrequency energy, which heats up the affected area, stimulating collagen production and tissue remodelling. This futuristic technique uses heat energy to penetrate the deeper layers of the skin to restore collagen and consequently fade both fresh and persistent stretch marks without any damage to the surrounding skin. The procedure has no downtime and adverse effects, suits diverse skin types including sensitive skin, and holds the approval of the US FDA.
Laser Skin Resurfacing: Oliva provides the safest, most affordable and effective laser treatment for stretch marks in Bangalore. With no downtime, discomfort, or collateral damage, it works as a brilliant stretch marks treatment.
At Oliva, dermatologists work with the advanced Pixel Erbium-YAG Fractional Resurfacing Laser to create tiny injuries in the skin and stimulate its innate healing process. The enhanced collagen synthesis helps break up the scarred tissue under the stretch marks, and in restoring the skin’s smoothness. Over time, the stretch marks fade. As it is a minimally invasive procedure, laser skin resurfacing is risk-free and highly cost-effective. Besides slight redness, itching, or inflammation that lasts a day or two, the treatment has no serious side effects, downtime, and gives sustained results after the necessary number of sessions.
Stretch Marks Removal Treatment Procedure
At Oliva, we follow a multi-dimensional approach, based on a careful and detailed treatment approach described below:
- Consultation and Pre-Treatment Stage: Our treatment framework begins with a thorough consultation session with our experienced dermatologists who asses your skin for end-to-end diagnosis. At this stage, they ascertain the cause and intensity of the stretch marks and then formulate the optimal treatment course. The dermatologist will decide if it is a solo or a combination treatment and the number of sessions you will need. They also provide a detailed explanation of pre-treatment precautions and essentials to prevent any complications.
- Treatment Process: Dermatologists follow regulatory requirements and global safety standards during the treatment. Your safety, care and comfort are our dermatologists’ prime concerns.
- Post-Treatment Care: You will also receive post-care instructions to prevent any adverse effects. Following these instructions will ensure lasting results, along with completing the recommended number of sessions.
