Stretch marks and chemical peels

Stretch marks are difficult to treat.  I do not think that a chemical peel will help improving the color or skin stretching over the mark.

Stretch marks

Unfortunately a chemical peel will not work for stretch marks. Several other treatments have been tried with inconsistent results at best such as Stretch mark cream from Mederma, Laser and Retina.
