Postpartum Care

Postpartum Care: Understanding and Treatment Options

Pregnancy causes significant changes to the skin that are not limited to the abdomen. After childbirth, many women notice skin laxity, stretch marks, loss of elasticity, or texture irregularities affecting areas such as the abdomen, breasts, inner thighs, arms, and even the face. For those who have undergone a cesarean section, a visible scar may also be present. At VK Derma, we offer targeted medical-aesthetic treatments to help the skin regain its firmness and natural glow.

Why does the skin change during and after pregnancy?

During pregnancy, the skin undergoes significant distension to adapt to body transformations, sometimes resulting in:
-Skin sagging due to a reduction in collagen and elastin.
-The appearance of stretch marks caused by rapid stretching of the skin.
-A loss of hydration and radiance linked to hormonal changes.
-Hyperpigmentation (pregnancy mask or dark spots) on certain areas of the face and body.

After childbirth, the skin takes time to regain its elasticity, and some areas may retain a looser or more marked appearance.

What are the main skin changes that can be treated?

-Skin laxity: Loss of firmness in the abdomen, breasts, arms, and thighs.
-Stretch marks: Red, purple, or silvery streaks that appear on the abdomen, hips, thighs, and breasts.

-Cesarean scar: Improvement of the appearance of cesarean scars by promoting tissue regeneration and evening out skin texture.
-Loss of radiance and dehydration: Dull and less supple skin due to hormonal changes.

Texture and tone irregularities: Including enlarged pores, redness, pigmentation spots, or uneven skin tone.
