Stretch marks are incredibly common and can show up at different stages of life: during pregnancy, after weight changes, or even from growth spurts. At Kucumber Skin Lounge, we take a thoughtful, whole-skin approach to improving stretch marks, helping your skin look smoother, firmer, and more even over time. With experienced specialists in Seattle, Bellevue, and Bellingham, each treatment is personalized to your skin and your goals.
Smooth Starts Here
Stretch marks, also known as striae, happen when the skin stretches too quickly, causing tiny breaks in the elastin fibers beneath the surface. You might first notice them as red, pink, or purple streaks (called striae rubrae), but over time they often fade to a paler shade (striae distensae). These narrow bands can show up anywhere, but are most common on the abdominal area, thighs, upper arms, and hips.
People can develop stretch marks for lots of reasons: pregnancy, weight gain, weight training, rapid muscle growth, or even fluctuating hormone levels. Some people are simply at a higher risk due to family history or how their skin heals.
While stretch mark creams, vitamin E, or home remedies like cocoa butter, olive oil, or almond oil might offer mild relief for early stretch marks, they usually don’t create noticeable changes in deeper or older marks. That’s why we offer medical-grade treatments that go beyond the surface to treat stretch marks by improving skin texture, skin tone, and overall appearance.
KuSculpt™ is one of our most popular non-invasive treatment options for stretch marks in Seattle. It works by gently heating the deeper layers of the skin to stimulate collagen and elastin production, key players in smoothing and tightening skin that’s been overstretched.
KuSculpt™ can be used on the thighs, belly, upper arms, and other treated areas where stretch marks are common. Because it helps firm the skin and improve texture, it's often used alongside treatments like microneedling or laser therapy for even better results.
KuFit™ uses focused thermal energy to tighten loose skin and improve skin tone. This treatment targets collagen and elastin fibers deep in the dermis, helping areas affected by weight gain, pregnancy, or abrupt changes in body shape to look more even and firm.
If your stretch marks are caused by weight training, KuFit™ can help the skin shrink quickly and bounce back by restoring its strength and elasticity. It’s a good option for many skin types and often works well in a series of three treatments or more.
Chemical peels gently exfoliate the outer layers of your skin and trigger cell turnover, revealing new collagen and smoother skin texture underneath. While they’re more often used for the face, certain peels can also be customized for the body, especially the abdomen, thighs, and hips, to treat stretch marks and fade discoloration.
Peels can be especially helpful if you’re looking to improve skin color in areas where stretch marks may have become darker or uneven. It’s a great add-on for those with early stretch marks or lighter surface-level concerns.
Microneedling is a go-to solution for many clients who want to get rid of stretch marks without downtime. By creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, this treatment encourages the body to heal itself naturally, producing new collagen and elastin in the process.
Microneedling helps improve both the appearance and texture of stretch marks, especially on the abdomen, thighs, and upper arms. It also pairs well with PRP (platelet-rich plasma), which can boost healing and speed up results. Most people see the best improvement after a series of treatments.
Laser skin resurfacing uses laser energy to target the deeper layers of skin where stretch marks form. We offer fractional laser treatments that help stimulate your skin to grow smoother, healthier, and more even in tone and texture.
Laser therapy is especially useful for older stretch marks, which tend to be lighter in color and more textured. It works by breaking down scar tissue and encouraging the skin to rebuild itself with new collagen, improving both feel and appearance over time.
Support Where You Need It
At the end of the day, it’s not just about getting rid of marks. It’s about feeling more comfortable and confident in your skin. Our treatments are safe, minimally invasive, and designed to work with your body’s natural healing process. Benefits of stretch mark treatment may include:
We follow a custom Purify → Nourish → Boost™ system with every client, making sure your skin is supported through every step of treatment and recovery. We start by gently cleansing and preparing the skin (Purify), delivering targeted treatments that align with your skin’s needs (Nourish), and finishing with post-care steps that help maintain and protect your results (Boost). It’s a holistic approach that helps your skin heal better and stay healthier over time.
Your Skin’s Welcome Here
Most people with stretch marks are great candidates for treatment. Whether you’re pregnant or postpartum, managing weight gain, or dealing with changes from growth spurts or hormone levels, we’ll create a treatment plan that fits your skin’s needs.
We work with all skin types and tones. Your provider will also ask about your medical history and any concerns, like allergies, sensitivities, or whether you're currently pregnant or breastfeeding. Some treatments, like laser therapy, may not be recommended during pregnancy, but we’ll always guide you toward a safe, effective option.
Planning Makes Perfect
Every treatment starts with a one-on-one consultation. We’ll review your medical history, discuss your concerns, and examine the stretch marks you want to address. We’ll also talk through your skin goals, budget, and schedule so that your treatment plan is practical and realistic.
Before your appointment, we may recommend avoiding certain skincare products, sun exposure, or home remedies like creams that could interfere with your skin’s response. Your provider will give you clear instructions to make sure your skin is ready.
Visible Changes, Invisible Marks
The actual procedure depends on the treatment you choose, but most are done in under an hour and don’t require any surgery. We may use a numbing cream for treatments like microneedling or fractional laser sessions to keep things comfortable.
You'll relax while our team focuses on your therapeutic targets, treating your striae with care and precision. After your session, you might notice some redness, light swelling, or mild sensitivity in the treated areas, but downtime is usually minimal.
Care That Keeps Going
Healing varies depending on your skin and which stretch mark treatment you had. Most clients start seeing results within a few weeks, with ongoing improvement as collagen and elastin rebuild.
For the best outcome, your provider may recommend a series of three treatments or more. We’ll walk you through simple aftercare steps, like avoiding sun exposure, staying hydrated, and using gentle products to support healing.
To prevent stretch marks from returning or getting worse, we’ll also give you realistic tips and maintenance options. While stretch marks may not disappear completely, they often become much less noticeable and easier to cover or ignore.
Worth Every Penny
The cost of stretch mark treatment depends on the treatment options, the size of the treated area, and how many sessions your provider recommends. Every plan is personalized, so pricing will vary based on your skin’s needs and the techniques used.
During your consultation, we’ll walk you through all of the details: what’s included, how many sessions you may need, and any follow-up or aftercare involved. We make sure you understand every part of the process, including the investment, before you begin.
