Thank your for your question and posting pictures. I'm sorry this happened to you. We have lots of recommendations for stretch marks. IPL is not usually on the list of things we recommend. I don't understand why providers use what they have versus refer treatments out to someone with the proper equipment. We have over a dozen treatment options, but still refer some thing out because we don't have everything.The good news is that it looks like your burn is healing well. I do not think you will keloid. Worst case, you might experience a little PIH (Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation) that is easily treatable.For stretch marks, every physician will have their area of expertise and preferred treatments. You might find success with microneedling with PRP, lasers, etc.No one has perfect skin, but you can probably get significant improvement in your skin texture. You will get better and faster results with laser treatments over microneedling. After a complete consultation in a medical setting, you would probably be a candidate for a several treatment options depending on your skin type, severity of the stretch marks and how much downtime you can take. Keep in mind that more intense/deeper treatments require more downtime, but you will need less treatments. If you choose a short downtime treatment plan, you will need more treatments in the series. The most gentle would be something like the PicoSure FOCUS treatment with almost no downtime. It is safe for all skin types, but you would probably need 3 to 6 treatments. Another option would be a fractional 1540 nm laser treatment like ICON or Fraxel. With these treatment you could have redness and swelling for 1 to 3 days, but need less treatments. Based on your skin type, you may be a candidate for a fractional CO2 treatment with 7 days of redness and swelling. Look for a medical setting with a doctor in house, where they have multiple laser options. I hope this helps
