Not much can be done for stretch marks on the breast

Richard P. Rand, MD answers: Can anything be done about stretch marks on the breast?

I got stretch marks after my first child, on the sides of both breasts. Is there anything that can be done to remove them or treat them?

If they are red or purple still, you can have IPL traetments done to lighten the color of breast stretch marks.  If they are pale and wrinkled because of lax skin, either doing an augmentation or a lift can tighten the skin and make the stretch marks look smoother.  They will still be there however.
