Ah, stretch marks. The bane of many women’s existence. We think of them mostly after babies, but plenty of people have then on the hips and thighs as well. The worst thing about stretch marks is that they are very hard to treat. They are caused by a rip in the deep part of the skin, called the dermis. Nothing can put that rip together again. If the marks are red, treatment with the VBeam laser will rapidly get them to white within two or three sessions. The Fraxel^® laser remodels the stretch mark, blending it and making it less noticeable. Finally, our Alma Accent^® XL radiofrequency laser works on loose and stretched skin, tightening the entire swath of skin-you-wish-were-tighter.
