Hello dear. Stretch marks are the most difficult ones to treat as they respond poorly to medical treatment.
However, we can try some procedures such as chemical peeling, microneedling to improve the appearance of the scars.
Please consult online for further assistance.

Hello dear,
These are stretch marks also called as striae gravidarum.
These are indented, reddened streaks that usually appear on the skin from rapid weight gain or from weight changes during pregnancy.
both medical treatments and cosmetic procedures are available.
But for that you have to book proper online consultation.
