Stretch marks, also known as striae, are narrow lines or bands that develop when the skin stretches too quickly for its underlying structure to keep up. This rapid stretching causes tiny tears in the dermis—the skin’s middle layer—leading to visible streaks that can be red, purple, or white, depending on their age and severity.
Stretch marks form when the skin’s collagen and elastin fibers—two of the main building blocks that keep it strong and elastic—are disrupted. These fibers can rupture during periods of rapid change, leaving behind streaks that are often textured and discolored.
While stretch marks are not medically harmful, many people find them frustrating or cosmetically bothersome. Fortunately, modern dermatologic treatments can reduce their appearance and improve overall skin texture and tone.
Stretch marks can appear anywhere, but the most commonly treated areas at BODYWELLE include:
Our team also specializes in treating stretch marks on areas affected by significant weight loss, including those following the use of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Monjouro, Wegovy, or Zepbound. These treatments often cause rapid fat reduction, leading to skin laxity and an increase in stretch marks that become more noticeable as the underlying tissue shrinks.
We offer two powerful solutions for improving stretch marks: Morpheus8 and Hyperdilute Radiesse. Each targets different layers of the skin and can be used on their own or together for more dramatic results.
Hyperdilute Radiesse is a biostimulatory injectable made from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA). When diluted and injected into the skin, it stimulates natural collagen production and improves skin quality.
I can’t express enough how grateful I am for the life-changing results I’ve experienced at AM Beauty + Wellness. This clinic and Dr. Alonso have given me not just a slimmer figure, but a whole new lease on life. If you’re struggling with weight or simply want to invest in your health, I cannot recommend this place highly enough. It’s hands down the best thing I’ve ever done for myself.

I was getting up 4 to 5 times per night to go to the bathroom. I was tired all the time. Right away I noticed better control. Now I have nights I do not get up at all.

I couldn’t do jump rope competitions. I would think about things that I couldn’t do. By my 3rd treatment I could sneeze and feel nothing. It’s freeing to do what you want to do again.

Stretch marks often affect multiple layers of the skin. While surface-level improvements help with appearance, deeper collagen remodeling is what creates long-term improvement. That’s why we frequently pair energy-based devices like Morpheus8 with injectable biostimulators like Hyperdilute Radiesse.
A combined approach often includes:
Most stretch mark treatments are performed in a series of 3–4 sessions spaced several weeks apart. Your specific plan will depend on the severity of your stretch marks, your skin’s response to treatment, and the combination of therapies recommended. What you can expect:
The real value of these treatments lies not only in appearance but also in skin integrity. By reinforcing collagen and elastin networks, your skin becomes more resilient, smoother, and healthier over time. This means fewer visible marks in the future and better response to future treatments.
We also recommend maintenance treatments every 6 to 12 months to preserve your results and continue stimulating collagen production. With ongoing care, many patients enjoy significantly improved skin tone, texture, and elasticity for years to come.
In addition, our skin specialists can provide guidance on lifestyle habits and topical support that complement your in-office treatments, such as:
With the rise in popularity of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy, and Zepbound, more patients are experiencing rapid weight loss—and with it, an increase in stretch marks and loose, crepey skin. These medications can cause sudden shifts in fat distribution, and when not dosed properly or medically monitored, the skin may not adapt evenly. At BODYWELLE, our medically supervised weight loss program is carefully designed to support safe, gradual fat reduction while minimizing the risk of stretch marks, skin irregularities, and volume loss.
At BODYWELLE, we specialize in post-weight loss skin repair. Morpheus8 and Hyperdilute Radiesse are two of the most effective options for rebuilding support in areas that have deflated quickly, such as the abdomen, thighs, upper arms, and flanks. By combining these treatments, we can restore elasticity, smooth texture, and improve the overall appearance of the skin.
Although stretch marks are more commonly associated with women—especially during pregnancy—they also affect men. Muscle gain, adolescent growth spurts, and weight fluctuations are common triggers in male patients. The treatment strategy may differ slightly based on skin thickness, hormone levels, and body distribution of fat and collagen, but the core technology remains just as effective.
We offer tailored protocols for men and women alike, addressing the unique needs of each patient with a focus on safety and long-term improvement.
Stretch marks don’t define you—and you don’t have to live with them. At BODYWELLE, we offer advanced, proven treatments to help restore your skin’s strength, smoothness, and resilience. Whether you’re just starting your journey or looking to enhance previous results, we’re here to help you feel confident in your skin again.
