I have red/purple stretch marks on my hips and have had 3 fraxel treatments. The fraxel helped with the texture and has shrunk the stretch marks. However, they are still quite red/purple and i was thinking of trying v beam. I would also like to have more fraxel treatments. So i am wondering if getting more fraxel after v beam would make the redness come back? Would the vbeam results be permanent even with further laser treatments?
Im 34 and Im seeing these stretch mark looking lines between my boobs and mid chest area its from years of tanning and no sunblock used. Is co2 the right laser for that and if so how many treatments would I need to completely get rid of it. Also will I build collagen in the chest area like we do in the face?
Which is the best treatment for red and white stretch marks post-pregnancy? Red stretch marks with a little depression on breast after milk came in and white ones around the belly shown after baby is born? Would you recommend Fraxel, Sublative with microneedling, carboxytheraphy or any other one? Baby is only three months old so the stretch marks are new ones.
Im hoping to reduce the appearance of some pretty deep and uncomfortable stretch marks on my abdomen post pregnancy. Im wondering about suggestions of what treatments might be effective. I am most concerned about the higher marks that are more difficult to cover if I was to wear a two piece. Are the deeper stretch marks also treatable? What kind of results might I be able to expect and what treatments might be effective?
Ive been on prednisone (60mg to eventually 0) for 6 months from April to mid-October for my lupus nephritis which I am now off and managing with only plaquenine and Cellcept. My lupus is in remission. I developed very bad stretch marks on my arms, legs, and waist, and was wondering how long after prednisone treatment would I be able to get laser surgery?
I had 5 sessions done of fraxel to my stretch marks. The stretch marks did go from pink to white but the pigmentation left from fraxel is worst. I rather have my stretch marks back. It's been 5 months and no change and I've been on hydroquinone 2% and 4%. No change. Any suggestions? I am desperate. It looks so bad.
I'm planning to do fraxel laser for my stretch marks in 3 weeks. However, this summer i did tanning using tanning beds, last time being a week ago. Is it safe to do fraxel laser on my body in 2-3 weeks? Because I am really afraid of getting hyper pigmentation after the treatment. Also they want me to use a $200 bottle of serum during my treatment. It is kind of expensive to buy a bottle every two weeks I was wondering if it is necessary or if there are cheaper ones.(vivierskin SEEQUEEN 4IDS)
I did fraxel all over my body basically for stretch marks two months ago and it's still there ( laser scar ) like a huge rectangle on my thighs . I didn't use retin A after the treatment because my doctor didn't tell me and now I'm gonna start using it tomorrow. But I'm really worried it will never go away. I have a very sensitive skin that heals slow.
