Stretch Mark Program
Early and late · MIRAJET · a combined protocol
A stretch mark is what is left when skin stretches faster than it can keep up: the epidermis thins and collagen in the dermis tears. The red phase and the white phase are different events inside the skin, so one method rarely answers both. Symphony separates the phase first, then works on colour and depth together.
※ The final plan and cost are confirmed by your physician after an in-person examination at the clinic. Results and recovery vary by individual.
Stretch Marks · Early · Late
Not a mark on the surface — a tear underneath it
Stretch marks appear when skin responds to a rapid change. What is left is a place where the epidermis has thinned and the collagen in the dermis has torn — working on the surface alone does not reach it.
So two things are read together: the colour you can see, and the depth you cannot. Early on, vessels and inflammation sit at the centre of the problem; later it is collagen and tethered tissue.
How much can be reached depends on how long the mark has been there. That is the first thing we tell you, before any plan is drawn.
CAUSE
Where stretch marks come from
Stretch marks appear when skin responds to a rapid change. The approach differs with the cause and with how long they have been there.
Pregnancy and birth
The abdomen, chest and thighs stretch a great deal over a short period.
Rapid weight gain
The dermis cannot keep up with the speed at which the skin is stretching.
Loss of firmness after dieting
Marks left behind after the weight has gone can stand out more than they did before.
Growth years (teens and twenties)
They appear behind the knees or at the waist while height is increasing quickly.
Long-term medication such as steroids
They appear as the skin itself becomes thinner.
PHASE COMPARE
The phase decides the approach
Stretch marks are how skin responds to a rapid change. Symphony works on the colour and the depth in one plan.
PHASE ① · EARLY
Red stretch marks
This is the window where the skin still responds.
The early stage, red or purplish: vessels are dilated and the inflammatory response is still active.
- The work is on vessels and inflammation
- MIRAJET with soothing and regenerative agents
- Fewer sessions and less recovery to carry
PHASE ② · LATE
White stretch marks
There is still work that can be done at this stage.
Colour and depth are approached at the same time — inducing dermal collagen and releasing the tissue that has tethered.
- Rebuilding torn collagen and releasing tethering
- MIRAJET + subcision + RF as one protocol
- Colour and depth are worked on together
MIRAJET SOLUTION
No needle, no heat — the axis of the protocol
The Symphony protocol turns the pressure of a laser into delivery, sending regenerative agents such as Juvelook directly into the dermis.
Stretch marks are a wide-area problem that has to be covered in several passes. Covering that area with a needle raises pain and recovery together.
No needle enters and no heat is produced — over an area that is wide and has to be repeated, those two decide whether a course can be carried through.
Stretch Mark Program
Why MIRAJET suits stretch marks
Needle-freeAgents are delivered without a needle, which lowers pain and the need for anaesthesia.
No heatBecause no heat is used, it can be considered for areas where pigmentation is a concern.
0.3 µlA very small amount is placed precisely, at the depth that needs it.
40 / secA wide area is covered quickly, working on colour and depth together.
Up to 2,400 shots a minute. A wide area such as the abdomen or the thighs can be covered inside one session.
COMBINATION PROGRAM
Not one device — skin boosters and devices played together
Five treatments are combined according to the colour, depth and width of the mark, from vessels and inflammation through to dermal collagen.
MIRAJET + Juvelook / RITUO / Rejuran
Regenerative agents delivered into the dermis by MIRAJET — the core of every protocol.
When it is usedEarly and middle stages
Microneedling
Fine stimulation induces collagen and evens out the texture of shallow dips.
When it is usedLight, shallow dips
Radiofrequency · needle RF
Heat in the dermis induces collagen remodelling, supporting the deeper dips.
When it is usedMiddle and late white marks
Subcision + CaHA / RITUO
The tethered dermal tissue is released so the depression can lift — the key card for white marks.
When it is usedOld, deep dips
Autologous exosomes
The deeper step of the combined protocol, supporting the skin's own repair.
When it is usedImproving the regenerative environment
COMPARE
Not every “stretch mark treatment” is the same
Four differences decide what a patient actually feels and how a treatment is chosen.
| Conventional PRP | The Symphony MIRAJET stretch mark programme | |
|---|---|---|
| Pain | Anaesthesia is required and there is pain during the treatment | No needle enters, so pain and the need for anaesthesia are lower |
| Heat damage | There is a risk of burns from laser heat | No heat is produced, so that risk is lower |
| White stretch marks | Pale, sunken marks are difficult to improve | A combined protocol approaches colour and depth together |
| Fit to the person | A fixed protocol is applied uniformly | Agents and devices are set one to one for the skin type and the area |

Follow-upThe response is reviewed and the interval and make-up of the next session adjusted.
FAQ
Questions we are asked
How many sessions does it take?
It varies a great deal with depth and with how long the marks have been there. Commonly three to five sessions or more, three to five weeks apart, as a combined protocol.
Are red and white stretch marks treated differently?
Yes. Red marks are treated by calming the redness and the inflammation; white marks by inducing collagen and releasing tethered tissue to work on the dip.
Does it hurt?
MIRAJET uses neither needle nor heat, so the burden of pain is lower than with needle-based work. Topical cream is applied, and sedation can be added if needed.
Can stretch marks be removed completely?
Returning the skin to its original state is not possible. What treatment aims at is narrowing the colour and the dip towards the surrounding skin so that they are less noticeable.
How is this different from the Scar & Stretch Mark page?
That page covers marks in general, including acne scars. This one looks only at stretch marks, separated by stage. When both are present, the order is set inside a single plan.

After the treatment, the care steps are set against how your skin actually responded.
Doctor
The same doctor, start to finish
The doctor who consulted with you writes the plan and performs the treatment.
Record
Measurements kept on file
What the skin analyser measures is kept, so the next session starts from the last one.
Benefit
A Symphony benefit for returning patients
40% off when you return for a laser treatment. Which treatments this covers, and the list price it is calculated from, are explained at consultation.
