Understanding Scars and Stretch Marks
How Scars Form
Scars are the body’s natural way of healing wounds caused by injury, surgery, acne, or skin conditions. When the skin is damaged, collagen production increases to close the wound. However, the way collagen is deposited often leads to uneven texture, discoloration, or raised tissue, resulting in noticeable scars. Some scars fade over time, while others remain permanent.
There are different types of scars, including:
- Hypertrophic scars – Thick, raised scars that form due to excessive collagen production.
- Atrophic scars – Depressed scars, often associated with acne or chickenpox.
- Keloid scars – Overgrown scar tissue that extends beyond the original wound.
What Causes Stretch Marks?
Stretch marks, also known as striae, occur when the skin stretches rapidly, causing micro-tears in the dermis. This is most commonly seen in:
- Pregnancy
- Rapid weight gain or loss
- Growth spurts during puberty
- Intense muscle gain
Stretch marks often begin as red, purple, or dark-colored streaks, eventually fading into white or silvery lines. While they are not harmful, many people seek treatments to improve their appearance.
How Lightwave Therapy Works to Improve Scars and Stretch Marks
Lightwave Therapy’s advanced LED light technology works by delivering specific wavelengths of light into the skin to stimulate healing. Red and infrared light have been extensively researched for their ability to increase collagen production, accelerate cell turnover, and improve skin texture.
The Role of Red and Infrared Light
• Red Light (630-660nm): Targets the skin’s surface, reducing inflammation and redness while stimulating collagen production.
• Infrared Light (850nm and beyond): Penetrates deeper layers of the skin, enhancing tissue repair and regeneration at the cellular level.
By combining these wavelengths, Lightwave Therapy encourages the skin to heal itself naturally, making scars and stretch marks less visible over time.
Lightwave Therapy Products for Scar and Stretch Mark Reduction
Lightwave Therapy offers professional LED systems that help medical spas deliver effective, non-invasive treatments for scars and stretch marks.

This makes it an ideal choice for reducing the visibility of scars and stretch marks over multiple treatment sessions.
Topical Light Infusion (TLi) System – Combining LED Light with Topical Skincare
The Topical Light Infusion (TLi) System is a breakthrough in skincare technology that combines LED light therapy with targeted topical ingredients. This system enhances skin rejuvenation by infusing powerful active ingredients deep into the skin, maximizing their effectiveness. When used for scars and stretch marks, the TLi System works by:
- Enhancing collagen synthesis

What to Expect from Lightwave Therapy Treatments
Treatment Protocols
Medical spas using Lightwave Therapy systems will typically follow a structured treatment plan to maximize results.
- Initial Consultation – A skincare professional assesses the severity of scars or stretch marks and develops a customized treatment plan.
- Treatment Sessions – The affected area is exposed to Lightwave LED therapy for 20-30 minutes per session. If using Topical Light Infusion, specialized serums are applied before LED exposure to enhance penetration.
- Multiple Sessions Required – Most clients will need a series of 6-12 treatments over several weeks for the best results.
- Ongoing Maintenance – Additional sessions may be scheduled periodically to maintain improvements.
