Hello, it depends on the degree of the stretch marks. Every body is different. We always start off at 3 sessions four weeks apart. Then re-evaluate in 3 months. Most patients do well with the three sessions. If you have any further questions or inquiries please visit my website at Drroya.com. Good luck!
It depends on the extent of the marks. It can be done in one session. However, even though done in one session, it may need to be touched up in another session. Not unusual to have more than one session.
Bad news, lasers do not remove stretch marks.
