Various treatment options at JUVENIS
Treating stretch marks in Vienna
Stretch marks, also called pregnancy stretch marks, arise, as the name suggests, from a strong stretching of the tissue. This can happen with rapid weight gain due to pregnancy or a growth spurt. The resulting tears in the subcutaneous tissue then appear as white streaks.
There are several options to make stretch marks fade. If they are still fresh and reddened, they can be treated with IPL. For older, white streaks, microneedling is a gentle method. The fractional laser works in a very similar way. All methods stimulate the skin's self-healing process, so that the skin structure can improve after multiple applications.

Treatments & Therapies
Treating stretch marks with IPL
Fresh, still-reddened stretch marks or pregnancy stretch marks can be treated with modern IPL technology. This is a gentle method to make unwanted streaks fade.
Treating stretch marks with a dermaroller / dermastamp
Microneedling is a simple and gentle method to treat the annoying streaks. Here we use a special microneedling device equipped with very fine needles. It is a stamp.
During the treatment, thousands of microscopic injuries are created that cause the body to activate the wound healing process. During healing the skin produces collagen and evens out the unsightly streaks; the skin structure is demonstrably improved.

Treating stretch marks with fractional laser
Older pregnancy stretch marks or stretch marks that have already turned white are treated with the modern fractional laser. This laser technology activates the skin's self-healing powers and makes the stretch marks fade.
The laser delivers impulses to the skin that treat only fractions of the skin. However, this stimulates the skin to renew collagen production.
Treatment procedure IPL
After the treatment
After IPL treatment the skin is slightly reddened. This redness disappears after a short time, and the stretch marks fade.

Treatment procedure dermaroller / dermastamp
After the treatment

Recommended treatment duration
For an effective treatment of stretch marks or pregnancy stretch marks we recommend 4-8 treatments at intervals of 4 weeks.
Treatment procedure fractional laser
After the treatment
After treatment of the stretch marks with the fractional laser, the skin is slightly reddened and slightly swollen. This redness disappears after approx. 3 to 7 days; after 2 to 3 days the skin becomes dry and brittle, so a moisturizing cream should be applied. After about a week the traces of the procedure are hardly visible.
Treatment with the fractional laser leads to an improvement of the streaks. Skin renewal, however, takes time, so the final result can be seen after approx. 3 to 6 months.

Recommended treatment duration
For an effective treatment of stretch marks or pregnancy stretch marks we recommend 2 to 5 treatments at intervals of approx. 3 months.

FAQs
Stretch marks (striae) occur when the connective tissue is overstretched due to rapid growth or weight fluctuations. Common causes include pregnancy, rapid weight gain or loss, growth spurts during puberty, or intensive muscle building. Initially, the marks are reddish or purple, later they fade into light, scar-like lines.
Stretch marks usually cannot be completely removed, as they are scars in the connective tissue. However, modern medical procedures can significantly reduce, smooth, and color-match them, so that they are less visible.
Depending on skin type and severity, JUVENIS uses the following methods:
Radiofrequency microneedling (e.g., POTENZA)
Fractional laser treatments
Microneedling with active ingredients or PRP
The choice of method is made individually after a medical assessment.
All procedures aim to stimulate the collagen and elastin production. This improves the skin structure, the tissue becomes denser, and the stretch marks appear finer and less noticeable.
The treatments are well-tolerated. As a rule, a numbing cream is applied to increase comfort. After the session, a slight feeling of warmth or tightness may occur.
For visible improvements, usually 3–5 treatments are required at intervals of several weeks. The exact number depends on the depth, age, and severity of the stretch marks.
Initial improvements are often visible after a few weeks. Since collagen regeneration takes time, the final result continues to develop continuously over several months.
After the treatment, slight redness, swelling, or temporary skin sensitivity may occur. These reactions usually subside within a few days.
Stretch marks can be treated in areas including:
Abdomen
Thighs
Hips
Buttocks
Breast
Upper arms
The costs depend on the size of the area and the chosen method:
Treating stretch marks with IPL from € 200
Treating stretch marks with microneedling from € 180
Treating stretch marks with fractional laser from € 200
An individual treatment and cost plan will be created during the consultation.
