The Fraxel Dual Laser: This option is for younger people with newer stretch marks. You'll see results in four to five treatments.
The V-Beam Laser: If you want to get started right away, this laser is safe even while you're breastfeeding, and it even works well on C-section scars.
The Dermapen: Frank calls this "a hot new technology" and describes the procedure as little needles poked into the skin to traumatize it into producing new collagen. He suggests it for patients with darker skin who may not be good candidates for a laser.
