Is there a way to surgically remove stretch marks from the pubis?

Stephlynn1015
I have large (1-2 cm wide) stretch marks in the pubic area, relics of my first pregnancy 24 years ago. I have stretch marks in other areas as well, but as they are not painful I am not bothered by them. These, however, are painful to the touch and have been so to varying degrees and I would like to be rid of them if possible. I am aware that abdominoplasty removes stretch marks between the umbilicus and the pubis, but is there anything that can be done for stretch marks below the pubic bone?
