General Information
What is Strialite™?
Strialite™is a small handheld device for the treatment of stretch marks having
a red appearance. The base (treatment plate) contains 35 red 633 nm +/- 5 nm
light emitting diodes (LEDs) and heating elements that generate temperature
up to 105°F (40°C) that produces a gentle heat, both of which aid in the
reduction of the appearance of stretch marks. The LED light and heat work
together to stimulate the skin at the cellular level, decreasing the appearance
of the stretch mark.
Indications for Use:
Strialite is an over-the-counter device indicated for use in the temporary
reduction of redness in striae rubra (red stretch marks). Strialite does not
remove the stretch marks but may improve their appearance.
How It Works: As our bodies start the natural aging process, the amount of
collagen in the skin starts to diminish. Collagen supports our skin tissues and
helps create that youthful image. Sometimes, when skin is stretched too far
from pregnancy, instances of sudden weight gain or loss, or even just sudden
growth during puberty, stretch marks can occur. A “stretch mark” is a defect
in the skin caused by damaged collagen that occurs from rapid skin stretching
and, in some instances, this damaged area has a red appearance. The
beneficial LED lights on the Strialite device can reduce the appearance of these
stretch marks. Improvement in appearance will be greater with stretch marks
that are darker or brighter than with those that are lighter or more faded.
When used correctly and according to the instructions, Strialite may help
reduce the appearance of stretch marks (striae rubra). Typical areas for
treatment are the abdomen, breasts, back, hips, and thighs.
Before using your Strialite device, read this entire booklet carefully. Pay
particular attention to the sections “Precautions, Warnings, Safety Features,”
“Procedure for Use,”and “Care of your Strialite.”
