Are my stretch marks too old/dark for treatment? (photo)

Childish
Im a 27 year old medium dark skinned African American. I have dark purple stretch marks in 5x5 in sections on my obliques. Would ematrix or vbeam be effective in fading these stretch marks? They’re older but in my research I’ve seen conflicting information on which treatment is most effective for my skin tone. Think Michael B Jordan with browner marks not very deep. The consult fees are very prohibitive in my city but some information before I seek one out would help. Only looking to fade
