Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Stretch marks can't officially be "cured," and it will take a combination approach and consistent treatment to see great results. However, there are a multitude of treatments currently available that can be utilized. I recommend a combination of microneedling/PRP, lasers (Erbium, Fraxel, Excel V, Pulsed Dye Laser, Laser Genesis, Yellow laser) or radiofrequency devices like Intensif, Fractora, Skinfinitiy, and Venus Viva. I recommend seeing an expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer

Dear Diligent, microneedling can help improve the appearance of stretch marks by stimulating collagen production, promoting skin regeneration, and reducing skin irregularities.

During a microneedling session, the tiny needles create micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body's natural healing response. This leads to the production of new collagen and elastin, which can help improve the texture and appearance of stretch marks over time. Multiple sessions may be needed to achieve optimal results. Additionally, individual response to treatment can vary, and results may vary depending on factors such as the severity of the stretch marks and skin type.
