"Class-Leading Stretch Mark Treatment — Where Advanced Laser Technology Meets Regenerative Medicine"

Experience the next generation of stretch mark treatment at Rejuvence Clinic. Our doctor-led team combines cutting-edge technology — including BBL HERO™, Sylfirm X, and Aerolase Neo® & Era® — with our exclusive ExoSmart™ autologous exosome therapy to repair, renew, and rejuvenate your skin from within. The result: smoother, firmer, more even-toned skin and transformative results you can trust.

How do stretch marks form?

The stretching that the skin is subjected to comes from within and essentially affects the dermis (deeper layers of the skin) rather than the epidermis (upper layer of the skin). Healthy dermis consists of a lattice arrangement of collagen and elastin providing the skin with tensile strength and elasticity. Stretching results in disruption of this structure and repair and regeneration is compromised. It also results in inflammation that affects the epidermis. 

 

Under the microscope, research into stretch marks has revealed evidence of thin and inflamed epidermis. The dermis has reduced amounts of collagen and elastin. The collagen and elastin that remains is extremely disorganised.

What are the most successful evidence-based treatments for stretch marks?

At Rejuvence Clinic, our non-invasive approach to treating stretch marks is grounded in clinical evidence and powered by some of the most advanced technologies available in the UK. Studies show that radiofrequency microneedling (RF-MN) and fractional light-based therapies consistently deliver the most effective non-surgical results for striae distensae by stimulating collagen remodeling, elastin regeneration, and dermal neovascularization (Cho et al., Dermatol Surg, 2017; Gold et al., J Cosmet Dermatol, 2018). Our Sylfirm X platform, using dual-wave RF microneedling, has demonstrated up to 70% improvement in texture and depth after multiple sessions, particularly when combined with regenerative actives.

 

Complementing this, BBL HERO™ and Aerolase Neo® target vascular and pigment components, improving both red (striae rubrae) and white (striae albae) marks by reducing discoloration and promoting even tone (Hennessey, J Clin Aesthet Dermatol, 2024). For patients seeking refined resurfacing and enhanced smoothness, Aerolase Era® delivers precise ablative renewal with minimal downtime. Finally, as the first UK clinic to introduce ExoSmart™ autologous exosome therapy, we further amplify dermal healing and collagen induction following Sylfirm X, achieving results that are biologically deeper and longer-lasting.

 

Together, these doctor-led, evidence-backed treatments offer a comprehensive, non-invasive solution for restoring smoother, firmer, and more uniform skin — redefining the standard of stretch mark rejuvenation at Rejuvence Clinic.

Can stretch marks be treated?

Successful treatment of stretch marks requires repair and regeneration of collagen and elastin in the dermis (deeper layer) of the skin. Treatment of stretch marks requires a combination approach to achieve realistic positive results.

Sylfirm X and Stretch Marks

At Rejuvence Clinic we also ensure we are able to offer alternative treatment approaches. Sylfirm X is a Radio-Frequency Microneedling device. It consists of a microneedling head unit that incorporates radio frequency energy. Microneedling encourages new collagen formation and is clinically proven to help improve the appearance of scars by encouraging new collagen formation and skin rejuvenation. Radio Frequency energy can be used to heat the deeper layers of the skin including the dermis and thereby breaks down collagen and encourages the formation of new collagen and most importantly elastin. This results in skin tightening. When combined together in the same piece of technology Sylfirm X is able to result in new collagen formation as well as elastin and hence the improvement of the appearance of stretch marks as well tightening the skin. Sylfirm X can also be combined with E50 Exosome treatment delivered with Target Cool. E50 Exosomes have tremendous rejuvenating qualities that can help with pigmentation correction, collagen induction and generalised improvement in the appearance of skin defects such as stretch marks. 

Combining Sylfirm X with ExoSmart™ Autologous Exosomes — A UK First at Rejuvence Clinic

At Rejuvence Clinic, we’re proud to be the first clinic in the UK to introduce the ExoSmart™ system, a revolutionary advance in regenerative aesthetics. ExoSmart™ enables us to harvest and concentrate a patient’s own autologous exosomes — potent cellular messengers that stimulate repair, regeneration, and collagen renewal.

 

When paired with Sylfirm X radiofrequency microneedling, this cutting-edge synergy transforms the way we treat stretch marks. Sylfirm X creates precise microchannels while delivering focused RF energy to remodel collagen and elastin deep within the skin. Immediately afterward, your own exosomes are introduced through these channels, amplifying cellular signaling and accelerating the regeneration process.

 

The outcome is smoother, stronger, and more evenly toned skin, with visible reduction in the depth and appearance of stretch marks. This exclusive, doctor-led protocol brings together world-class RF innovation and next-generation regenerative medicine — setting Rejuvence Clinic apart as a pioneer in stretch-mark rejuvenation.

Can BBL Heroic Laser system help with stretch marks?

At Rejuvence Clinic, we use BBL HERO™ (BroadBand Light High Energy Rapid Output) to target both the color and texture of stretch marks by stimulating deep collagen renewal and evening skin tone. This advanced light-based therapy helps fade red or pink striae while improving overall skin smoothness. For enhanced results, we often combine BBL HERO™ with Sylfirm X radiofrequency microneedling, which further remodels collagen and elastin within the dermis. Together, these technologies provide a powerful, minimally invasive approach to reducing stretch marks — restoring firmer, clearer, and more even-looking skin with little downtime.

Aerolase Neo Elite & Era Elite at Rejuvence Clinic

 At Rejuvence Clinic we use the renowned Aerolase Laser Systems for the treatment of a variety of conditions including stretch marks. The Aerolase Neo Elite is a Nd:YAG laser with a unique 650 microsecond pulse duration meaning it is able to deliver much higher energies to the skin without damaging any of the adjacent skin or soft tissues and with relatively no pain. The Nd:YAG allows for deep penetration in the deeper dermal layers of the skin to break down collagen and encourage new collagen formation and remodelling thereby strengthening the skin and improving the appearance of stretch marks. 

As the stretch marks thicken with new collagen formation it is possible use the ‘Reverse Neo’ protocol and combine Neo and Aerolase Era Elite together. Neo helps with deep dermal collagen induction and Era helps to resurface the superficial layers of the skin to improve texture, tone and appearance.

At your initial consultation your stretch marks will be examined. Our team will confirm the presence of stretch marks and identify which areas are likely to improve the most with laser treatment. Following this they will carry out a patch test to ensure it is safe to use Nd:YAG laser on your skin.

 

We normally recommend four sessions with each session taking place four weeks apart. After each treatment session we apply topical antibiotic cream for 3 to 7 days. We ensure that each stretch mark is treated with a single pass of the Nd:YAG laser.

Microneedling of the affected regions result in collagen production. Combination with Angel Arthrex or Magellan Therapy can accelerate this. Regenerative therapy can also stimulate production of hyaluronic acid which will help to plump up the skin and increase the levels of hydration. There will also be modest improvements in colour tone.

Supplementing with superficial chemical peels can help to even out skin tone and level out the epidermis (upper layer of the skin). This can help to improve the appearance of stretch marks. Regular skincare with a combination of a bleaching product  and mild Vitamin A or retinol will provide a blending effect that can improve the overall colour tone.
