Hello! I just HAD to ask you, being in this field of work and all, do you see any real hope for stretch mark removal in the(preferably near) future?


hi mama
that is an excellent question.
i am hoping, and there is increasing evidence, that active fx may help with some stretch marks, as long as they are not too severe.
fraxel does not seem to offer enough intensity, but the co2 laser seems like it can do some good. there is a new head for the active fx called the deep fx. i think that this head is necessary to get good results for stretch marks.
hope that helps
