I plan on trying this but were TTC right now so I figured why bother if I'll just be pregnant soon anyways... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-laser-stretch-marks#post-1359524 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 12:01:48 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1359524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raintreebee: I don't know anything about laser :( but, I am waiting until we're all done with kids and then I'm getting a tummy tuck to remove stretch marks as well as any excess skin I'll have at that time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-laser-stretch-marks#post-1359277 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 08:34:59 +0000 Charm54 1359277@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had terrible stretch marks ...now at 4 months they have faded considerably. I'm thinking by a year I won't even notice them. I'd wait it out first before investing $$ in any treatments! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-laser-stretch-marks#post-1359258 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 08:15:09 +0000 blackbird 1359258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My derm also said not to bother unless you're a model because it's not very effective </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-laser-stretch-marks#post-1359218 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 04:20:33 +0000 raintreebee 1359218@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Freckles: still in utero so I'm planning ahead! I have heard that it's much cheaper and more effective to laser fresh, red ones rather than faded ones because they use different lasers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-laser-stretch-marks#post-1359198 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 01:27:36 +0000 dojo 1359198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm curious about this too. </p> <p>@HLK208: that is a bummer :sad: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-laser-stretch-marks#post-1359195 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 00:52:07 +0000 HLK208 1359195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked my dermatologist about laser treatment on stretch marks. She said it's not effective and the only way would be a tummy tuck :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-laser-stretch-marks#post-1359187 Sun, 19 Jan 2014 00:29:04 +0000 Freckles 1359187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>how long has it been? I find that post 1 year, the stretch marks faded quite a bit and you can barely see them. I was obsessed with finding laser treatments or anything that can help them! If i did laser, i'd probably wait until i was done having kids! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/anyone-laser-stretch-marks#post-1359105 Sat, 18 Jan 2014 22:49:03 +0000 raintreebee 1359105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sadly my diligent application of mamma mia oil and various creams has not staved off the stretch marks. I am thankful that the marks represent a growing baby but am also interested in removing these things after the birth! Anyone tried laser treatments? Effectiveness, cost, pain? </p>
