Treatments for Scars + Stretch Marks
Scars and stretch marks tell part of your story. If you would like to soften their appearance, you deserve clear expectations and care tailored to your skin.
Understanding the concern
Smoother skin without promises of perfection
A scar or stretch mark can change the texture or color of otherwise healthy skin. Juniper can look at its age, appearance, and location with you, then discuss which treatments may make it less noticeable.
What may be contributing
What are you noticing?
A closer look helps us understand what you want to improve and which kind of care may fit.
Red or pigmented scars
A scar's color and its texture may need different care. We assess pigment and redness as well as the surface before recommending treatment.
Stretch marks at different stages
Newer and older stretch marks can look quite different. Treatment may soften their appearance, but it should not be presented as a way to erase them.
