What removes stretch marks?

Stretch marks are scars that occur when the skin overstretches rapidly or contracts. Some stretch marks may naturally fade but they typically cannot be entirely eliminated once they appear. Laser treatment, microdermabrasion, chemical peels, and topical scar treatment may improve the appearance of stretch marks for some people. Additionally, maintaining a healthy diet and weight, staying hydrated, and avoiding additional stressors to the skin can help prevent stretch marks in the future.
