About Stretch Marks

Stretch marks (striae) form when skin stretches rapidly beyond its elastic capacity — during pregnancy, growth spurts, weight gain, or muscle building. The dermis tears, creating indented, discoloured streaks.

Newer red/purple stretch marks respond better to treatment than older white/silver ones. RF microneedling and fractional laser stimulate collagen production within the stretch mark, improving texture, colour, and depth. Using Cutera Secret RF, Cutera Excel V+, we deliver precise, measurable improvement.
