Fraxel or Pixel Laser for Stretch Marks in Beautiful Vancouver

Michael A. Persky, MD answers: Pixel laser or Fraxel for stretch marks?

I would like to have Pixel laser or Fraxel laser done on my stretch marks. These stretch marks are new, red and located on my stomach. However, I can not decide which laser treatment would give me the best results. Please help.

Hi Lifeforce,

Fraxel laser is a deeper laser treatment for scars and stretch marks, hence it is more effective that Pixel. 

We advise patients to have a small area tested and see how they respond. 

Good luck and be well.
