The Fraxel laser is a new and very effective way to treat a variety of skin complaints, including mild to moderate wrinkles, aging spots, sun spots, melasma, and scars (for more information on the Fraxel, please see the other blog entry and video on our site). Recently, there has been some attention paid to the fact that Fraxel treatments can also be done effectively for stretch marks. For example, a recent article on the “Thatsfit” website reviewed the Fraxel, and other treatments, for stretch marks:

As you probably know, these visible, wide, blanched marks can result from weight loss and pregnancy, and can be quite bothersome. If you have stretch marks and would like to see them reduced or eliminated, please visit Dr. Hicks for a Fraxel consultation. There is no cost for the consultation, and the treatments themselves are affordable. With Summer approaching, you can take a big step toward a more beautiful appearance!
