Stretch Mark & Scar Laser Treatment

Fractional laser is designed to treat stretch marks caused by pregnancy, weight gain and body changes due to puberty as well as acne, surgical and other scars.

Fractional Laser can be safely used on most skin types. During your consultation, we will determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure based on a variety of factors.

You can expect to see an improved appearance of your skin tone and texture over the first 6 weeks after your treatment.

This is dependent on the size of the area and the condition being treated, however session can range from 30-60 mins.

Most people feel mild discomfort during the treatment but speak to your provider regarding pain management options.

Series vary, but depending on the condition being treated but 3-6+ sessions are recommended for stretch marks and scars.

Treatments are typically staggered by 4-6 weeks until the series is complete. You just protect the treatment area from light throughout the process.

Treatment costs vary depending on the size of the area and condition being treated, but $300 and up for a small body area and $700 and up for the face.

Pulses of fractional laser light are used to break down old and damaged tissue, triggering your body to create new tissue at the area being treated. This new tissue will provide healthier skin that’s more even in both color and texture.

Typically, you can resume regular daily activities the same day as your treatment, though healing can take anywhere from 5-10 days on the face and 14+ days on the body.

Anticipated side effects immediately after the treatment are redness, swelling and/or brown debris at surface of the skin is common and typically lasts 2-24 hours but could last up to 3-7 days in some cases.
