Stretch Marks
Finally we have a treatment that can really make a difference with your stretch marks
A stretch mark is a type of scar that develops when our skin stretches or shrinks quickly. The abrupt change causes the collagen and elastin, which support our skin, to rupture. As the skin heals, stretch marks may appear.
Not everyone develops these narrow bands on their skin. Fluctuating hormone levels seem to play a role. You may also have a higher risk if people in your family get stretch marks.
Our Approach and Expertise
Stretch marks—also known as striae—are a common skin concern that can appear during periods of rapid growth, weight change, pregnancy, or hormonal shifts. While harmless, they can affect how you feel about your skin. At The Center for Dermatology and Plastic Surgery, we offer effective, personalized solutions to help reduce the appearance of stretch marks and restore confidence in your skin.
Stretch marks often appear as red, purple, or silvery lines on the abdomen, thighs, breasts, hips, or arms. They form when the skin stretches quickly and the collagen and elastin fibers beneath the surface are disrupted. Over time, these marks may fade, but for many patients, they remain visible and bothersome.
Our board-certified dermatologists and experienced providers begin with a thorough consultation to assess your skin and discuss your goals. We then create a tailored treatment plan that may include fractional laser therapy, microneedling with radiofrequency, topical retinoids, or medical-grade skincare to improve texture, tone, and elasticity.
Whether your stretch marks are new or longstanding, our goal is to soften their appearance, stimulate collagen production, and support healthy skin regeneration. With a blend of advanced technology, expert care, and aesthetic sensitivity, we help you achieve smoother, more even-toned skin—and renewed confidence. From cosmetic enhancements to medical dermatology, The Center for Dermatology and Plastic Surgery is your trusted skin health partner.
