Stretch marks are a skin concern caused by stretching due to rapid weight gain, pregnancy, puberty, or hormonal changes. While not harmful, they can affect your self-esteem. At Viva Medspa & Wellness, we offer advanced treatments like SkinPen® Microneedling and LaseMD Ultra® to help diminish the appearance of stretch marks, restoring smoother and more even skin for a confident, youthful look.
Stretch mark treatments at Viva Medspa & Wellness use SkinPen® Microneedling and LaseMD Ultra® to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture. These advanced treatments target the affected areas, gradually fading the stretch marks and promoting healthier, more youthful skin.
SkinPen® Microneedling is a minimally surgical procedure that uses small needles to create micro-injuries in the skin, stimulating collagen and elastin. This helps improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of stretch marks, and promote healing and rejuvenation.
LaseMD Ultra® is an advanced fractional laser that delivers minimally invasive skin resurfacing. It helps reduce stretch marks by stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture. LaseMD Ultra® is ideal for all skin types and offers a gentle yet efficient solution to stretch marks.

Multiple treatments may be required to maintain the best results. Depending on the type of treatment you receive, treatments will be spaced a few weeks apart, and regular touch-ups may be required to ensure long-term smooth, flawless skin.
