Stretch marks can be linked to a depressed scar that is due to over stretching of the skin (with pregnancy or weight gain). Lasers that stimulate collagen improve the texture and appearance of the stretch marks, often in combination with microneedling, retinoid and glycolic acid creams
and sun protection. We are seeing great stretch mark improvement with this combination. Results are seen after a few sessions, and are noticeable after the first one.
Dr Touma’s favorite treatment for stretch marks is the vascular laser when they’re red, and the thulium laser Fraxpro which was proven to be the most effective at removing stretch marks and restoring skin’s lost elasticity in 2-4 sessions.
