What Are Stretch Marks?
Stretch marks appear as red or purplish linear streaks in the skin that occur due to damaged collagen and elastin fibres in the deeper tissue because of excessive stretching of the skin. They may gradually fade and become thin silver or whitish lines. However, they do not disappear completely, even with time.
Stretch marks occur when the skin stretches quickly, like in the case of a pregnant woman, in areas around the abdomen, breasts and buttocks, but may also appear on the limbs during a pubertal growth spurt. They can also occur due to the use of steroids. Stretch marks are usually asymptomatic but may occasionally be itchy during the early stages.
Who Is At Risk Of Getting Stretch Marks?
Anyone can get stretch marks at any age. However, the following risk factors increase the likelihood:
- Pregnancy, especially in the last trimester
- Quick weight gain or fluctuation
- Growth spurt during adolescence
- Bodybuilding
- Women are more prone than men
- Personal or family history of stretch marks
- Use of systemic or topical steroid
- Genetic disorders like Marfan syndrome or endocrine disorders like Cushing syndrome
Can You Prevent Stretch Marks?
You cannot prevent stretch marks completely, but you can take some steps to minimise the risk of occurrence:
Avoid Rapid Weight Fluctuations
Controlled weight gain or loss can minimise the risk of stretch marks.
Increase Your Hydration
Drinking sufficient fluids prevents dehydration and stretch marks, as dry skin is prone to damage.
Consume A Nutritious Diet
Intake of essential nutrients like Vitamins C, D, E, Zinc, and protein can help maintain healthy skin texture and quality and prevent early stretch marks. Your doctor is the best person to prescribe vital supplements to improve skin health if needed.
Seek Early Medical Attention
If you cannot prevent stretch marks, seek early medical treatment to minimise them at the initial stage. Treating old stretch marks is more complex and challenging than reducing new ones.

FAQ's
The cost of stretch mark removal treatment ranges from INR 3500 to INR 5500 per session approximately.
*However, this cost range is suggestive only and is subject to changes based on market trends. It strictly does not apply to Oliva’s stretch mark removal treatment as we specialise in customised treatments that vary for every individual. Its cost depends on unique factors like the skin tone and type, severity of the condition and the suitable modalities recommended by our dermatologist as solo or combo procedures, the number of sessions and the size of the target area. Please visit your nearest Oliva Skin & Hair Clinic to find out the exact cost of your customised stretch mark removal treatment today.
Anyone 18 years or above with stretch marks can opt for advanced stretch mark removal treatment at Oliva. However, pregnant and lactating women are advised not to undergo this treatment.
No, the stretch mark removal treatment is relatively painless as Oliva’s dermatologists apply topical anaesthetic cream an hour or two before the procedure to alleviate discomfort in the target area.
The non-surgical stretch mark removal treatment is safe for all skin types and tones, including those with sensitive skin and a tendency to get blemishes and marks quickly. Experienced dermatologists at Oliva provide pre- and post-care guidance and use USFDA-approved technology to minimise any risk of side effects and ensure maximum safety.
Usually, dermatologists recommend 4-8 sessions at monthly intervals for a significant reduction in the appearance of stretch marks. However, the exact number of sessions you need at Oliva depends on your skin tone, type, age and severity of stretch marks, suitable modality recommended as solo or combo procedures and more.
You can start observing improvement in your skin post the first session, though your dermatologist would strongly suggest you complete the recommended sessions to achieve the best results.
There is little/no downtime as the client can return to their daily routine almost immediately.
The safety and efficacy of home remedies to remove stretch marks remain scientifically unproven.
Dermatologists at Oliva provide post-care guidance to rule out side effects and optimise results. They may advise you to use sun protection and moisturiser every few hours. They may also prescribe medicated creams for topical application to aid skin healing.
