Stretch marks are a common concern that many individuals face. Stretch marks are often as a result of rapid weight gain, pregnancy, or hormonal changes. While they pose no health risks, these subtle scars can affect one’s confidence and self-esteem. Here’s how Belo can treat it!

Air Dissector

This method involves using compressed air. This is to separate the layers of the scar; is helpful in collagen regeneration and improving its appearance. There is no downtime, though patients may experience some swelling and redness. “This is done monthly, [about] 6-8 sessions depending on the severity,” says Dr. Guada Santos-Capiz of Belo Greenhills.

Virtue RF

Combining radio frequency (which stimulates fibroblasts to rebuild collagen and elastin) and microneedling, Virtue RF reduces the appearance of stretch marks and scars. Not only that – it tightens skin, too!

Microneedling may sound scary. However, Dr. Santos-Capiz assures that topical anesthesia (emla numbing cream) is provided and the procedure is overall tolerable. 

“Collagen will grow in the next 30-90 days. Patients usually see the best results after three months,” she said.

ASCE+ Exosomes

A highly-revered skin booster to date, ASCE+ Exosomes can help heal and restore stretch marks as they have regenerative and anti-inflammatory properties. Administered topically or using the Belo-exclusive Nanosoft® needle, this treatment is painless. It can run from 15-20 minutes after the topical anesthesia (emla numbing cream) is applied. As a matter of fact, it can be a standalone treatment or an add-on to another Belo treatment, such as Virtue RF. “We encourage our patients to apply ASCE+ Exosomes after [Virtue RF]. Since we are already in the middle layer of the skin, it makes it easier for them to absorb ASCE+ Exosomes effectively.” says Dr. Santos-Capiz.
