Laser Treatment for Stretch Marks (Fractional)
It is estimated that close to 90% of women have stretch marks, which occur normally as a result of puberty, pregnancy, hormonal changes and weight gain. This fact does little to alleviate the embarrassment that most women feel at the appearance of these unsightly striations on their skin.
Until now there were few options for stretch mark treatments. Since the U.S. Food and Drug Administration cleared Palomar's fractional laser treatment for stretch marks, clients now have an excellent aesthetic solution for their stretch marks.
Palomar's fractional non-ablative skin resurfacing laser minimizes the appearance of stretch marks with no downtime. It improves the unsightly color and skin texture associated with stretch marks, leaving clients with smoother, better-looking skin.
