Stretch Mark Treatment

What is Stretch Mark Treatment?

Stretch marks (striae) result from rapid skin stretching that damages collagen and elastin fibers. Modern treatments stimulate collagen production and remodel scar tissue to significantly improve texture, color, and visibility of stretch marks—especially when treated early.

What to Know Before You Go

💡 Pro Tip: Newer (red/purple) stretch marks respond much better to treatment than older (white/silver) ones. If you have recent stretch marks, treat early for best results—don't wait until they fade to white.

⚠️ Insider Note: Complete removal isn't possible with current technology, but significant improvement is achievable. Set realistic expectations—focus on reduction and texture improvement rather than elimination.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can stretch marks be completely removed?

Complete elimination isn't achievable with current technology. However, 50-70% improvement in appearance is realistic with appropriate treatment. Early (red) stretch marks respond better than mature (white) ones.

How many sessions do I need?

3-6 sessions typically, spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Number depends on severity, stretch mark age, and treatment type chosen. Combination approaches often produce best results.

Do treatments hurt?

Mild discomfort managed with numbing cream. RF is gentler (2-3/10), microneedling moderate (3-4/10), ablative laser stronger (4-5/10). All are tolerable.

When will I see results?

Gradual improvement over weeks to months as collagen rebuilds. Some improvement visible after each session. Full results 2-3 months after completing treatment course.

Which treatment is best for my stretch marks?

Depends on age, color, depth, and location. Red/purple marks respond well to vascular lasers. White marks need fractional laser or microneedling. Consultation determines optimal approach.

Can all skin types be treated?

Yes, but treatment selection and settings matter. Darker skin types need careful laser selection to prevent hyperpigmentation. Microneedling and RF are safer for all skin tones.

Are results permanent?

Improvements are long-lasting as collagen remodeling is permanent. However, new stretch marks can form with future weight changes or pregnancy. Maintenance sessions help sustain results.

What about pregnancy stretch marks?

Very treatable—among the most common stretch marks we treat. Wait until after breastfeeding for most treatments. Results are excellent when addressed promptly after pregnancy.
