Q. What is Dr. Wright’s Three Step Program for Scars and Stretch Marks?

A. Dr. Wright has had very successful results in reducing and eliminating the appearance
of scars and stretch marks by treating each individual problem associated with your
skin’s appearance.

1. The first step is to smooth the surface of the skin using treatments like
   microdermabrasion and light chemical peels.
   
2. The second step is to use non-invasive lasers and light based treatments to help increase collagen and elastin, and to improve color.
   
3. The third component of treatment is home use of topical skin products.
   

Q. How Soon will I See Results?

A. Results vary from patient to patient and may not be immediate. Results from scar and stretch mark treatments are generally progressive and require multiple treatments. After each treatment you will see better results than the one before, and studies show that improvement will continue over a 3 to 6 month period even after your last treatment.

Q. Who is the Best Candidate for Treatment?

A. The patients that respond the best to scar and stretch mark treatments are those with
fair complexion and pigmentation changes. Newer and shallower scars and stretch
marks respond better than older and deeper ones. About 70% of patients receiving Dr.
Wright’s Three Step Program will notice a marked improvement in their skin’s
appearance.

Q. Why are Multiple Treatments Required?

A. By dividing your full program into multiple steps, the procedures provide gradual,
natural-looking improvement with very low discomfort or risk. As well, when
addressing all the individual problems present in the skin, patients will achieve the
most optimal results that will be long lasting.

Q. What are the Treatments Like?

A. Depending on the treatment modality used - most patients will experience either very little discomfort or none at all. A topical anesthetic cream will be applied when necessary. Some patients experience a slight tingling when a laser pulse is used or a mild burning sensation with chemical peels. All patients state that the treatments are very well tolerated.
