Stretch marks can develop following rapid or significant changes in weight, as well as during periods of growth or hormonal fluctuation. They may appear in different forms with newer stretch marks often present as red or pink, while more mature stretch marks tend to appear lighter or white or skin-colored.
Both types can be effectively improved with advanced treatments such as microneedling, radiofrequency microneedling, and select laser therapies. These technologies work by stimulating the body’s natural production of collagen and elastin within the skin, helping to strengthen the tissue, smooth texture, and gradually soften the appearance of stretch marks.
Treatment plans are thoughtfully tailored based on the type, location, and maturity of the stretch marks, with the goal of achieving natural-looking improvement and healthier, more resilient skin.
