It also seems like no one knows that there has been relief available for over a decade. Originally popularized in Brazil Carboxytherapy for Stretch marks was brought to the United States By Dr Lisa Zdinak. In fact I noticed on Quora no one had an answer for it, and many Doctors were misleading the public with suggestions like surgery or lasers which can not reach the depth of where the stretch mark lies but in addition could cause hyper pigmentation or hypo pigmentation. I took it upon myself to offer some answer on Quora which I will simply copy over to here for those who like to read a lot about a topic in addition to what Dr Lisa wrote on our page about Stretchmarks
Some times hearing it again in a slightly different way might resonate for a better understanding.
Three of my answers on Quora;
The only effective treatment for stretchmarks is Carboxytherapy. A laser may hyper or hypopigment your skin (dark or light spots) Carboxytherapy works on older stretchmarks as well as newer ones. It also works better on darker skin who particularly need to be concerned about using a laser. Carboxytherapy breaks up the stretchmark and increases circulation Dr Lisa did the original United States studies on Carboxytherapy and wrote the research papers about it. She uses the Brazilian technique. There are hundreds of providers of Carboxytherapy in Brazil.
Stretch marks are not superficial and will not respond to any cream or oil. If you are lucky and have great genes your body will resolve on it own. If after a long period of time nothing is helping you might want to try Carboxytherapy.
Carboxytherapy is the only therapy that actually resolves stretch marks. Lasers can easily cause dark or light spots. Plus lasers are only going to reach the very superficial layers of the skin. The stretch mark is much deeper.
Try all the natural treatments. And give it enough time to see if it heals on its own. Its your body’s response to a rapid change in skin size most often following pregnancy. If all the natural home remedies fail, the one treatment that works is Carboxytherapy. Ironically it is equally natural. Its the infusion of Carbon Dioxide gas. Every cell in your body is excreting carbon dioxide and bringing in oxygen. What this does is fool your body into increasing circulation as well as break up the stretch mark. It usually requires between 6 and 12 treatments. You can find it in every major city, NY, LA, Paris, London and overwhelmingly in Brazil where it originated.
