Most clients require 3–5 sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart, depending on stretch mark depth and skin condition.
Overview
CO₂ fractional laser treatment is a highly effective, non-surgical solution for reducing the appearance of stretch marks (striae). Whether caused by pregnancy, weight fluctuations, or growth spurts, stretch marks are a common concern that can affect confidence. CO₂ laser works by resurfacing the skin and stimulating collagen and elastin production, helping to smooth texture, even skin tone, and restore skin firmness over time.
This advanced technology offers visible improvement even for older, deeper stretch marks and is suitable for both light and darker skin types with proper settings.
How It Works
- The fractional CO₂ laser delivers precise beams of light into the skin, creating microthermal zones.
- This controlled injury triggers the body’s natural healing process, boosting collagen and elastin remodeling.
- As new, healthier skin replaces the damaged tissue, stretch marks become less visible, smoother, and more uniform in tone.
- The surrounding untreated skin helps speed up recovery and enhances the overall skin regeneration process.
