How does this procedure work?
Laser treatment is one of the most effective methods to get rid of stretch marks. It uses pulses of infrared and visible red light. These break down the pigmentation and texture triggering new tissue and collagen growth. The skin is thus left looking smoother. A few sessions might be required to get the desired results but the results are permanent.

The recovery is fast.
The treatment leads to better and smoother skin growth naturally.
