Stretch marks cannot be removed completely but there are effective treatments to minimize their appearance like- microneedling, PRP therapy, CO2 laser, MNRF treatment. Sometimes more than one modality is combined to get best outcome. Visible results are normally seen after 3 to 4 sessions spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart.
