    I don't know that I'm convinced that mesotherapy works but if anyone knows for sure it does please do let me know!

    And I would love to hear about this stretch mark laser too. I've heard of something like that but again, not sure that anything for real exists that really works.

    My understanding is that mesotherapy is not laser therapy at all, nor targeted toward stretch marks. I read that mesotherapy is a series of injections into fatty areas in order to spot-reduce them. *googles* Yeah, that's what the website says.

    Not that a stretch mark-reducing laser isn't cool too!

    It seems she was mentioning the laser for stretch marks as a separate treatment from the mesotherapy that she said was intended for fat deposits, not as one and the same.

    A fellow dancer who had 4 kids and a bunch of stretch marks went the laser surgery route. I do not remember how many rounds she went, but she has no signs of stretch marks, at all. Seemed to work pretty good to me.

    venusgoddess, do you know what kind of laser it was and if it works on the little white stretch marks? I don't have ones on my belly (no kids) but have little white ones on my thighs.

    I really don't remember. She gave me all of the info a couple of years ago. She's since moved away and we've lost contact. Sorry. I'll ask some friends if they can remember what she did/where she went.

    Stretch Marks
    Stria

    During periods of rapid weight gain, skin stretches to accommodate increased body volume. Because skin is elastic, it will tolerate significant stretching over a short period of time, such as during pregnancy. At some point, however, skin reaches a limit, and the deepest layer will tear instead of stretching further. When the deep layer tears, the overlying skin remains intact but appears thin and streaky. These streaks are called stretch marks. Once stretch marks occur, they are permanent.
    Beware Laser Removal of Stretch Marks

    Although some physicians claim that lasers are effective in removing stretch marks, there is no evidence to support this. Most plastic surgeons think that lasers are ineffective in treating this problem. Lasers are effective in removing, vaporizing, and breaking down tissues. They do not generally repair tissues. Stretch marks represent torn tissue. Hence, improvement should not be expected from laser treatment. Moreover, clinical studies have shown no improvement in stretch marks after laser treatment.
    Surgical Removal of Stretch Marks

    Abdominal stretch marks occur primarily below the belly button. Because much of the skin below the belly button is removed during a Tummy Tuck, stretch marks in this area are also removed. If you have stretch marks below your belly button and are also interested in having a tummy tuck, then this operation will remove those stretch marks. There is no other proven treatment for stretch marks.
