Answer: Fraxel laser such as CO2 can help even out skin texture and tone caused by stretch marks Fractional CO2 laser is an excellent tool for skin rejuvenation in our center in Santa Monica. We use the fractional multi-depth ablative approach to help resurface the skin, recontour acne scars, improve incisional plastic surgery scars, and reduce surface irregularities from skin tone to dark pigmentation. Our approach utilizes a multi-depth approach that targets melanocytes in the epidermis and collagen fibroblasts in the dermis. This approach can be combined with a TCA Peel in a process known as a sapphire peel. Fractional laser is excellent for acne scars and contour scars in the skin. Patients are advised to undergo skin protocols with Melarase creams before and after treatment to help reduce pigmentation. Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. After the laser, we expect redness for a few weeks as the skin improves. PRP and Hydrafacial enzyme facials can further improve skin quality after fractional co2.

Answer: Fraxel for stretch marks I have tried doing tests on mature white stretch marks with the Fraxel Re:store laser. I have repeated treatment on the same area several times, as we would do during a full series of treatments, and have not seen improvement that is significant. Acute stretch marks, are red and the color can be improved with a yellow light laser such as the V-beam laser, but this doesn't appreciably improve the atrophic thinned out nature that develops in the mature stretch marks.

Answer: Fraxel for stretch marks Fraxel does improve stretch marks on the abdomen. Do be aware that it is not an eraser. Multiple treatments will be necessary and it can take several treatments to start to see your results. In addition to improving the texture, the treatment can improve the color of stretch marks also.Be sure that you choose your physician based on her training, skills and reputation, not on what lasers she has. Because ultimately it isn't the laser, but the physician using the laser that makes the difference.I hope this answer helps. Best wishes.
