Laser Stretch Mark Therapy performed by Topsurgeons of Beverly Hills is a procedure specifically designed to reduce stretch marks. The exact cause of stretch marks is unknown. Top surgeons in Los Angeles believe it is a result of a beakdown of both collagen and elastin caused by rapid stretching of the skin during pregnancy, body building or even normal growth cycle. Stretch marks occur most frequently on breasts, abdomen, thighs, groin and buttocks. Stretch marks are red initially but turn white as part of normal healing. Stretch marks can be very distressing for both men and women. They are a nuisance in areas with a warm climate like Los Angeles.
