What types of stretch marks can be treated?

Laser stretch mark treatment can treat stretch marks caused by pregnancy, weight loss, weight gain and body changes due to puberty.

Am I a good candidate for this procedure?

Laser stretch mark removal can work on many skin types, including very light and very dark skin. Contact a provider to find out if you are a good candidate for this treatment.  Laser stretch mark treatment can be used to enhance the results of other procedures such as body contouring, abdominoplasty, breast reduction and liposuction.

How does it work?

Dr.Banks uses a fractional laser from the company that invented focused micro-fractional laser technology. Laser stretch mark treatment uses short pulses of micro-fine laser light to reach deeply into the skin’s sub-layers, treating the aging support structure. Then the body’s natural healing process sweeps away older, damaged tissue and rebuilds it with fresh, new collagen and elastin – the crucial building blocks of smooth skin. The new collagen can leave the stretch mark smoother in texture and reduce the appearance of the stretch mark on the skin by improving the color.
