Can Stretch Marks Be Surgically Removed from Any Part of the Body?

I developed stretch marks on my calves, back thighs, and buttocks during a growth spurt when I was thirteen. I then developed stretch marks on my sides, hips, abdomen, breasts and front upper thighs during pregnancy. So I'm basically covered in scars.
I've used creams which helped diminish my marks significantly, but I was wondering whether I could achieve better results through surgery. I have heard of Tummy Tuck surgery removing stretch marks so I wanted to know whether surgery could remove stretch marks from other parts of my body. Thank you.

Stretch marks, vbeam, fraxel
Any stretch mark in the excess skin removed though the surgery, offcourse will be gone. For remaining areas of stretch marks lasers can help lessen the stretch marks. We use Vbeam, Fraxel or other lasers to treat the stretch marks and have achieved excellent results in the past. We published our research on over 100 patients. Patients are generally quite satisfied. A consultation is ofcouse is required before the treatment. For more information please visit the link.
