A member asked:
Which type of surgery can remove stretch marks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on cause.: If they are due to applying strong topical steroid creams, you need to stop the steroids. If they are due to an underlying hormonal problem, you need to address that. There is no magic wand for stretch marks, you have to look for the cause and address that. Surgery is generally not an option.
