    Laser Stretch Mark Removal by a top Consultant Dermatologist in the heart of London’s Harley Street.

    STRETCH MARK REMOVAL

    No matter what your body shape or type, most of us will fall victim to stretch marks throughout our lifetime.

    Occurring during periods of skin growth, stretch marks are visible lines on the skin, usually the stomach, thighs, buttocks, breasts, and upper arms, that are dark red or purple at first appearance, fading to become white or silver over time.

    The skin contains collagen and elastin, proteins that keep it healthy and supple and allow it to stretch and expand as we grow. However, the inner layer of the skin, known as the dermis, produces collagen and elastin at a lesser rate, and when it cannot keep up with the upper layers, this causes small tears in the skin. These tears eventually become stretch marks.

    Stretch marks are very difficult to remove completely however there is a range of treatment options that can significantly improve their appearance. 

    OUR PORTFOLIO

    Patient Before and After Images

    Laser treatment for stretch marks does come with a period of downtime of around one week, varying from patient to patient.

    What does the treatment do?

    It is almost impossible to prevent stretch marks from forming, however, using a range of treatment options available at the clinic, patients can enjoy a significant reduction in their appearance.

    Laser stretch mark removal treatment aims to remove the outer layer of skin, helping to encourage new, healthy skin growth. Whilst this doesn’t completely eliminate stretch marks, it can help fade them dramatically.

    At Dermasurge, all laser treatments are carried out by Dr Hiba Injibar, our consultant dermatologist, or Manuela, our fully trained senior therapist. Prior to undergoing any procedures, patients are required to attend a thorough consultation to ensure suitability and maximise the effects.

    our expert answers

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How long do the results of laser stretch mark removal last?

    If Dr. Hiba’s aftercare instructions are followed carefully, you can expect a lasting improvement in the appearance of stretch marks. However, individual results may vary from patient to patient.

    How many treatments will I need?

    The number of treatments needed will depend on the severity of the stretch marks. In many cases, only one session will be required, though some may need a course of treatment to achieve the desired result. During your consultation, Dr Hiba or Manuela will be able to advise how many treatments are necessary on a case-by-case basis.

    Is there any downtime?

    Some patients may not require much downtime in cases where only mild treatment is necessary. However, at Dermasurge, we encourage all of our patients to embrace the prospect of downtime when necessary, as this often leads to longer-lasting, more noticeable results.

    What are the side effects?

    Patients may notice redness, swelling inflammation, and blisters in the treatment area, usually lasting around two weeks.

    Dr. Hiba removed a dermal piercing for me and the experience was exceptional from start to finish. She was compassionate, kind, caring, and completely honest throughout the entire process. Her professionalism and attention to detail gave me full confidence in her care.

    Her team was also outstanding and every staff member I interacted with was warm, supportive, and knowledgeable. The receptionist in particular went out of her way to help me and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free.

    Highly recommend Dr. Hiba and her team for anyone looking for expert, considerate care.

    We have used Dermasurge for our two children and the level of service from all staff goes above and beyond. They are polite, personable and knowledgeable. The speed of service is also very good. We have used other dermatologists before and can note that the Dermasurge team are far better.

    I had several seborrheic keratosis removed and one unusual skin growth excised and biopsied. The procedure was quick, painless and healed well. Dr Hiba and her staff were all friendly and kind and followed up quickly on my questions. I would use this dermatologist again.

    I’ve been attending Dermasurge for the past 4 months for laser and Botox treatments. The staff are all very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. An excellent TEAM!
    Dr. Hiba is amazing, very professional and approachable. During my initial consultation Dr. Hiba provided clear advice and direction, regarding the treatment I was seeking. I felt supported and listened to. A treatment plan was drawn up and each treatment explained in detail.
    My laser treatments were done by Manuela, who has been incredible. A top therapist, professional and so friendly. Thank you Manuela for the high standard of care you gave me!
    I highly recommend Dr.Hiba and her team.

    Everyone at this clinic is really nice and what I like most about Dr Hiba is that she did not try to sell me something, instead she listened to my concerns and recommended a treatment that had my best interests at heart. And i am very pleased with the results.

    I had acne in my twenties. Dr. Hiba did a great consultation and prescribed medication that successfully healed my acne. I feel so much more confident in my skin today and am super grateful for the treatment I received. Also, the whole team at Dermasurge is super lovely. Thank you, Dermasurge!

    My teenage daughter attended having suffered with bouts of regular breakouts which caused her significant concern and distress. Dr Hiba took the time to explain what was causing the problem and gave very pragmatic and honest advice about the treatment pathway. Less than a week later the results are already evident and my daughter; who only last week felt very low about her skin now has hope that she doesn’t need to suffer any longer.

    Ridwana was also incredibly kind and understanding. She shared her own experiences with my daughter making her feel much more at easy.

    The entire clinic has a calming yet professional atmosphere which is exactly how the clinical experience also felt.
