Thanks for the query. Stretch marks post weight gain are amenable to different therapeutic modalities with different success rates. Fraxel lasers offers most desirable results and have a downtime of 1-2 weeks. Other modalities include dermaroller with mesotherapy or only dermaroller and platelet rich plasma therapy. Certain topical creams also assist these treatments. Meet a Dermatologist for better and realistic understanding of the various procedures. Hope it helps.
