You love your babies, but we’re guessing that you don’t feel the same way about your stretch marks. The rapid expansion of the skin during pregnancy can lead to stretch marks, streaks, grooves, or stripes on the skin that occur when the dermis tears. What’s a girl to do? The secret to restoring your skin after stretch marks isn’t an expensive cream. Come see us at Key Laser for a Fraxel laser treatment and send those unwanted stretch marks packing!

Why Do I Have Stretch Marks?

You should know that stretch marks are extremely common. They occur when the skin expands rapidly, disrupting normal collagen production. As the skin is stretched, it doesn’t have the proper support, which causes a tearing in the dermis. If your stretch marks are new, they may be dark (often red or purple), but they typically fade in color. Both men and women can have stretch marks, but they are particularly common in pregnant women.

Women have fought a losing battle with stretch marks for many years, as few treatment options were available or effective. We’ll tell you a secret … those expensive stretch mark creams just don’t work. Spend your money on something that does! Luckily, we’ve found a solution that can provides noticeable, lasting results for your stretch marks. Ask us about the Fraxel laser.

What Is the Fraxel Laser?

Fraxel is a popular laser treatment that has been featured in magazines like New Beauty, Allure, O, and People. This powerful treatment can transform the skin, as it fades lines and wrinkles, smoothes acne scars, and fights sun damage. That isn’t all Fraxel can do, however. It is also an effective treatment option for stretch marks. We bet that Fraxel will quickly become your favorite secret weapon in the fight to reclaim your pre-pregnancy skin.

Stretch mark creams work by plumping and hydrating the skin, but Fraxel works differently for results you can actually see. It stimulates collagen production deep within the skin to help smooth those unwanted grooves. Think of it as a way to rebuild the damage within your skin. Don’t cover up the problem—repair it!

Every mom is a superhero in our books, and every superhero needs a sidekick. Make Fraxel your go-to helper when you want to smooth, perfect skin. Because the only stretch a super mom needs is in a sexy pair of leggings!
