Challenging yourself and achieving your weight loss goals can be the best feeling. Clearing your wardrobe of loose-fitting clothes and feeling fitter and leaner can give you a new perspective. But what if you’re left with sagging skin or stretch marks? Show If an elastic band is over-stretched repeatedly or for a long period of time, it loses its elasticity. Our skin acts in the same way – if our weight yo-yo’s up and down, or following pregnancy, we can be left with sagging, wrinkly or loose skin. The muscle and tissue can be firm underneath, but the skin has lost its elasticity, so what can you do? One of the leading issues that people have after weight loss or pregnancy is loose or wrinkly skin. A woman’s body is incredible at recovering following pregnancy, however sometimes the skin is stretched past its “elasticity point” where it fails to shrink back to the postpartum figure. Following weight loss, people typically suffer from sagging skin around the abdomen, under the arms and buttocks/thigh areas. There is a treatment that has been clinically proven to tighten skin by triggering the production of new collagen and elastin – the ‘scaffolding’ of our skin. VelaShape III is a body contouring and skin tightening device that combines radio frequency, infrared light, suction and massage that deep heats the fat cells and the surrounding connective tissue, including the dermal collagen fibers. The treatment stimulates the growth of new and better collagen and elastin, resulting in tighter skin and an overall improvement in skin texture and structure.

View Pricing How To Banish Stretch Marks After Weight Loss or PregnancyStretch marks commonly occur during pregnancy or other periods of rapid weight gain and are caused by the skin over-stretching, which creates a tear under the skins surface. Sublative™ technology uses radio frequency energy that penetrates deep into the dermis where it is needed to stimulate the production of new collagen and elastin, stimulating your body to repair the scars from the inside out. Both new and old scars can be treated with this technology, however newer scars will respond better to the treatment. Following treatment, your skin will be slightly red and will have tiny pinhole marks however the redness resolves within 24 hours and the marks fade over 2-4 weeks. There is no recovery period or downtime with Sublative™ treatment, it’s a straight forward, walk in, walk out treatment. To view Sublative™ treatment pricing, simply click on the button below.

Book A Free Consultation “Youth is beautiful,” people often say. It’s true. The funny thing is that the young people are so worried about fitting into the surrounding society and becoming successful that they never stop to look in the mirror. I mean really look in the mirror and see the perfect skin turgor, radiant glow, and even skin tone. Even when the young have acne, the smooth nasolabial folds and lack of permanent laugh lines is indeed a
gift. The acne resolves with time. Exposure to the sun, hormones, weight changes and more reduces the turgor of the skin, also known as the elasticity. This leads to stretch marks, saggy skin and creppy skin. Of course, increasing the fat layer does not help. The best way to avoid these changes is to have a clean diet devoid of toxins and processed foods, and to exercise regularly and stay out of the sun. Sometimes, even after doing all these things, genetics take over and stretch marks develop along with other changes. Luckily, Syneron and Candela has developed the Elos technology that use Refirme light therapy to reduce the stretch marks and give the skin a lift. Refirme, or skin tightening, can be done on any part of the body. Usually 5 to 6 treatments are needed. The skin tightening therapy is very comfortable and can be done during one’s lunch hour. Combining treatments like Refirme with Sublative or IPL can give and even better outcome. Try Kybella® to reduce the fat permanently under the chin and then return for Refirme to tighten the skin. Or try SculpSure to remove the fat permanently from the abdomen, love handles, and legs and then return for skin tightening. But no matter what treatment is chosen, exercise is important to maintain results and ongoing improvement. So, next time you see a young person, remind them how beautiful they truly are now and relish in their youth before it slips away.
