All procedures smooth out the scarred stripes to visibly improve the skin&#8217;s appearance. At GoAesthetic, we combine deep medical microneedling with a local peel. Thus, on the one hand, we have the positive skin smoothing effect of the peeling and, on the other hand, collagen regeneration due to microneedling, which additionally tightens the skin. Important: Whether laser or our combination of microneedling plus peeling, all treatments must be repeated 4-6 times to achieve visible results.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-l4qtpmsm-3c8989c618b5249c6ebf11df2da1fa00'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><h3 id='toggle-toggle-id-2' data-fake-id='#toggle-id-2' class='toggler  av-title-above '  itemprop=\"name\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='toggle-id-2' data-slide-speed=\"200\" data-title=\"Can stretch marks go away again?\" data-title-open=\"\" data-aria_collapsed=\"Click to expand: Can stretch marks go away again?\" data-aria_expanded=\"Click to collapse: Can stretch marks go away again?\">Can stretch marks go away again?<span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/h3><div id='toggle-id-2' aria-labelledby='toggle-toggle-id-2' role='region' class='toggle_wrap  av-title-above'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\" ><div class='toggle_content invers-color '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Although you can&#8217;t completely remove stretch marks with any method, it is possible to reduce the visibility over time. However, this depends on several factors. Thickness, color and individual skin type, along with the type of treatment, represent the most important. Since stretch marks are scars, the treatment is identical to scarring skin lesions. A combination of microdermabrasion, collagen induction and intensive skin care can reduce stripes.

This can be caused, for example, by rapid weight gain, growth spurts during puberty, intensive muscle building training or pregnancy. The result: small injuries to the skin occur, which can develop into stretch marks. Therefore, medically speaking, they are scars and not <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/en\/face-wrinkles\/\">wrinkles<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/en\/pigment-spots\/\">pigment changes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<section class='av_toggle_section av-l4qtq8a7-1-3cb70490400678f53f5ffb98dc607196'  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\" ><div role=\"tablist\" class=\"single_toggle\" data-tags=\"{All} \"  ><h3 id='toggle-toggle-id-4' data-fake-id='#toggle-id-4' class='toggler  av-title-above '  itemprop=\"name\"  role='tab' tabindex='0' aria-controls='toggle-id-4' data-slide-speed=\"200\" data-title=\"How long does it take for stretch marks to go away?\" data-title-open=\"\" data-aria_collapsed=\"Click to expand: How long does it take for stretch marks to go away?\" data-aria_expanded=\"Click to collapse: How long does it take for stretch marks to go away?\">How long does it take for stretch marks to go away?<span class=\"toggle_icon\"><span class=\"vert_icon\"><\/span><span class=\"hor_icon\"><\/span><\/span><\/h3><div id='toggle-id-4' aria-labelledby='toggle-toggle-id-4' role='region' class='toggle_wrap  av-title-above'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemprop=\"acceptedAnswer\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Answer\" ><div class='toggle_content invers-color '  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>The bad news first: Similar to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/en\/acne-scars\/\">acne scars<\/a>, stretch marks can never be removed 100%. That is impossible. However, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goaesthetic.at\/en\/microneedling-in-vienna\/\">microneedling<\/a>, chemical peels, and laser removal of stretch marks can help reduce visibility. The length of time it takes for streaky skin lesions to minimize can vary greatly and depends on several factors. Skin thickness, color of the stripes and your personal skin type are just some of them. On average, a visible reduction of stretch marks can be achieved after 4-6 treatments. Important: Early treatment achieves the best results.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n<\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-76qzx-5c2d29644cc1086e9b981f5ed9282e60\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-76qzx-5c2d29644cc1086e9b981f5ed9282e60{\npadding-bottom:10px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-76qzx-5c2d29644cc1086e9b981f5ed9282e60 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-76qzx-5c2d29644cc1086e9b981f5ed9282e60 .av-special-heading-tag{\npadding:30px 0 0 0;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-76qzx-5c2d29644cc1086e9b981f5ed9282e60 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-76qzx-5c2d29644cc1086e9b981f5ed9282e60 av-special-heading-h3 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-40  el_after_av_toggle_container  avia-builder-el-last '><h3 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >More questions?
