Hi! Thanks for your query. Stretch marks are caused because the skin is stretched beyond its capacity to recoil. It is like a rubber band that is over stretched and cannot regain its original shortened length.
Fresh (red) stretch marks have a better chance of being treated and lightened.
Stretch marks respond very well to fractional CO2 laser combined with vitamin A creams. This laser reduces the redness of early stretch marks and also the diameter/size of stretch marks.
