Why Stretch Marks Happen
Stretch marks (striae) form when the skin stretches faster than the underlying collagen and elastin can support. This causes tiny tears in the dermis which eventually heal as visible lines.
They are extremely common:
90% of pregnant women experience stretch marks
Up to 70% of teenagers develop them during puberty
They can appear on the stomach, hips, thighs, breasts, arms and more
Hormones, genetics and rapid growth all play a role — so if you have stretch marks, you are definitely not alone
How Fractional Laser Helps Stretch Marks
The ResurFACE™ Er:YAG laser uses precise fractional technology to create microscopic columns of controlled thermal energy in the stretch-marked skin. These tiny channels trigger:
Immediate collagen tightening
The heat causes existing collagen fibres to contract, giving a subtle tightening effect.
Long-term collagen and elastin rebuild
Fibroblasts (your skin’s repair cells) produce new collagen over the following weeks and months.
Replacement of damaged tissue
The laser encourages fresh, healthy skin to replace the damaged stretch mark tissue.
Faster healing thanks to fractional delivery
Healthy untreated skin surrounding the channels speeds up recovery — meaning dramatic results with minimal downtime.
This combination makes Er:YAG resurfacing one of the most successful, science-backed treatments for stretch marks available in UK aesthetics today..

Cooling packs are applied afterward to soothe the area. -

A warm, sunburn-like sensation for several hours
Redness for 1–2 days

These are all positive signs of deep regeneration.

Most clients see dramatic, confidence-boosting improvements. -
Most clients can return to normal activities the same day. Redness, warmth and mild swelling for 1–3 days are expected, followed by a bronzed tone and light flaking as the skin renews.
