I chose to have a CO2 laser procedure on my abdominal area to improve the appearance of severe stretch marks and sagging. I had tried thermal procedures, and topicals but the CO2 laser was the only one that resulted in a visual improvement. The texture of the skin and the stretch marks are much smoother and the elasticity improved significantly. Dr. Chestnut gave me realistic expectations and over the 6 months that the skin improved, I got the results I was looking for. I feel this is a better alternative to a full tummy tuck if you do not have major sagging and skin folds.

I'm really happy to hear you had a great experience and great results. Stretch marks can be a really tough problem to treat, so setting up expectations is key as you mentioned. It all boils down to communication, which we are always working to perfect. Thank you for your comments!
