Laser stretch mark removal in Dnipro

Why Stretch Marks Do Not Fade on Their Own

A stria is a scar formed inside the skin. When tissue stretches faster than collagen can be synthesised, the dermal fibres tear. The tear fills with connective tissue that is thinner, less elastic, and lacks the normal vascular and pigment pattern. That is why creams and massage do not remove stretch marks: the active ingredient does not change the structure of the dermis at a depth of 1-2 mm. Laser stretch mark removal works exactly there. The CO₂ laser beam creates microcolumns of heating in the stria. The damaged matrix partly breaks down, synthesis of new collagen and elastin begins, and the skin over the stretch mark gradually thickens. The texture levels out and the border between the stria and healthy skin becomes less pronounced. What affects the result: - Age of the striae: fresh pink and red ones (striae rubrae) respond better than old white ones (striae albae) - The area and depth involved - Location: the abdomen and thighs respond more slowly than the chest and arms - Consistency of the course and care between sessions

White stretch marks older than two years can also be improved, but they need more sessions and give a more modest gain. At the consultation the doctor gives you a realistic percentage for your own striae.

Indications for Laser Stretch Mark Removal

  • Fresh pink and red striae after pregnancy or weight change
  • White atrophic stretch marks on the abdomen, thighs, and buttocks
  • Striae after rapid muscle gain
  • Stretch marks on the chest and shoulders after an adolescent growth spurt

How the Procedure Works

01

Assessing the striae

The doctor determines the age and type of the stretch marks and the size of the area, then plans the number of sessions and the interval between them.

02

Preparing the area

The skin is cleansed and anaesthetic cream is applied for 30-40 minutes, so treating larger areas stays comfortable.

03

Laser pass

The doctor treats each stria and the skin around it. The abdomen or thighs take 30-45 minutes.

04

Cooling and repair product

The area is cooled, panthenol or another barrier product is applied, and you receive care instructions for 7 days.

05

A course at 6-8 week intervals

The result builds from session to session — the final assessment is made three months after the last treatment.

FAQ

Yes, though the result is more modest than on fresh pink striae. A white stretch mark no longer has a vascular component, so the work is limited to texture and tissue density. A realistic expectation is a 30-50% reduction in visibility over 4-6 treatments: the stria becomes smoother and less contrasting, but a trace remains.

After breastfeeding has finished and weight has stabilised — usually 6-12 months after birth. It is not done earlier for two reasons: breastfeeding is a contraindication, and unstable weight can produce new striae after the course is complete.

Usually 3-6 treatments at 6-8 week intervals. Fresh pink striae often respond after 2-3 sessions, while old white ones need the full course. The doctor gives you an exact number after examining the area, based on the age of the stretch marks and the size of the zone.
