laser surgery to remove stretch marks

Does evryone having stretch marks...i m in my las week n I hav lotsa stretch marks n dono wt tu do afta pregnancy....du ny1 hav suggstns tu remov it....

Speak to a dermatologist to see if laser treatment would help remove the stretch marks, I know it can remove other scars .

To my knowledge nothing but laser surgery is going to remove them. But I used palmers cocoa butter with vitamin e to fade mine. You can even use straight vitamin E to fade them.

if you can afford it i suggest the laser treatments. im actually going tomorrow for my first session. at MY place they are $100 to $150 per session and you need 2-5 sessions depending on how bad they are and how many you have. they won't be completely gone but they will fade to the point where you can't see them. they also have a different laser that can change their texture...and almost get rid of the indentions that stretch marks make.

I am 25 and have 2 kids. I have severe stretch marks on my stomach, arms and sides. I have smaller stretch marks on thighs. Retin A isn't covered by my insurance. Is there another remedy that I could use to help. Only a few have a little bit of red color to them and all are over 3 years old. I can't afford to have laser surgery either. I want something to help so i can feel comfortable in my own skin again. What can I do?

I have similar thing, nothing bad enough that I've ever had anything done about it. But if I was going to, I do believe that a medical dermabrasion may help or chemical peel. There are different levels of chemical peels and insurance won't cover bcuz it's considered cosmetic. Your best bet is to see a plastic surgeon. Good luck!

Hey, I am trying to lose weight and I am concerned as to what this will do to the stretch marks I have now....will it look really bad? Do any of you know remedys to rid me of these embarrassing lines?? besides the obvious...good diet and drinking lots of water.

I got them too, not as bad as I thought they would be. My mom had lots of stretch marks and I was hoping I wouldnt get them as bad. I am going to try bio oil after bub is here, i heard it doesnt do much until they start healing.

Most stretch marks fade with time, but in the mean time there are several products out there that claim to fade the stretch marks. • Apply cocoa butter into the stretch marks. • Massage with vitamin E oil into the stretch marks, especially after shower. • Apply tretinoin cream after consulting your doctor, since this cream is available by prescription only. • Eat foods that are rich in vitamin A, E and C. You can take supplements along with your regular diet.

Laser therapy, and dermabrasion alone or in combination have also been shown to be effective in diminishing the appearance of stretch marks. For that you need to consult a dermatologist. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.

ve lost a lot of my belly, but of course still have more to go. My question is what can I do/use to lighten up my stretch marks?? I use bio oil my whole pregnancy but still have them on my sides and lower stomach.

i started getting them at 32 weeks (ill be 34 weeks tomorrow, it *****) but after my baby is here is there anything I can do to make the stretch marks go away or at least make them not as visible? I have been putting cocoa butter everyday on my belly but clearly that didn't help..

, I am a 30 yr old female and I just had shingles about 2 months ago which left unsightly scars on my right, lower leg. I was wondering... can laser surgery help remove those scars? And if so, how soon can I start laser skin treatment? I have very pale white skin and would like the scars to be removed without my skin pigmentation changing. Do you also know how much they usually cost? Thank you so much.

m embarrassed for my husband to see me naked or just my belly.. Does anyone know if laser surgery works??? Do they fade away??? Or can I tan & cover them up??

) but on my left thigh I have these stretch marks that are striae distensae. There long stretch marks kinda have hole like stretch marks. If you look up striae distensae pictures on google I don't have it even close to tht bad but that's a percent or two what it looks like on my thighs. My INNER thighs. So my question is...has anyone eles had/have what I have??? What can I do to make it go away!!?

Does anybody had tummy tuck or laser for their extra skin & stretch marks? I need advice coz I'm planning to get one after this pregnancy...

so i got stretch marks in my teens and have failed to find away to get them off. please advise me on how i can get rid of them.

This will be my last child all via c-section. I am considering it. The tummy tuck won't eliminate your stretch marks though. There is a laser procedures that can be done to fade them but there isn't a. 100% guarantee that it will completely fade the stretch marks.

Creams minimize but do not stop them. Stretch marks have to do with elasticity of your skin and genes. The best thing to do for them as silly as it sounds is stay hydrated. Drink tons of water and gain weight at a reasonable rate (if possible).

t seem as though I had many stretch marks, but as I have continued to lose weight I have noticed more and more. I am particularly distressed about some that have appeared on my under arm in the tricep area as well as in my armpit and torso area. They are not discolored, but are very deep and highly noticeable. Is there anything that I can do to minimize their appearance?

Rubbing cream into the skin can help keep it moisturized and more supple and possibly help against future stretch marks. Cocoa butter and Shea butter are supposed to be good for the skin, also aloe vera. Just make sure it's the first ingredient on the bottle. A lot of things claim to have coco butter, aloe or shea butter but it's very little. Get the good stuff. They're all really good for your skin!

As you mention, avoiding gaining excess weight is the single most important way to prevent stretch marks. Keeping the abdominal muscles toned also helps to prevent excessive stretching of the skin too. I do believe that keeping the skin moist and supple is helpful, and I'm not sure that it matters how this is done -- cocoa butter has been used forever.

I agree its not something that will make me not want to be pregnant but I prefer not to have any stretch marks lol I am just glad mine fad and turn white so u can't notice them as much...

s commen for every women or at least majority of women to get stretch marks. I use cocoa butter 2-4 times a day. Once you have stretch marks they will always be there. The oil helps the marks not be so noticeable and red\purple.
