Stretch Marks Removal
Everyone hates having stretch marks. They show up on our skin due to hormone changes during phases in our lives. These hormonal shifts may be due to events such as pregnancy, major weight loss or gain, puberty, even weight lifting all may contribute to the formation of stretch marks.

Skin with stretch marks looks very different from normal skin, the hallmark red or white lines which streak across our skin stand out greatly. What’s strange is that skin with stretch marks looks almost identical to normal, healthy skin under a microscope. The damaged elastin fiber proteins in the skin only make up about 4% of skin, though the appearance is much more significant.

Fortunately new lasers, such as Fraxel and Affirm, can help diminish some of the textural problems with stretch marks. Call to schedule an appointment today to learn more about laser treatment for stretch marks.

I have received several laser treatments from dr. Chapas, including hair removal and skin resurfacing. She is an outstanding doctor. She is extremely competent but also very personal. I saw her on a video on YouTube on the Rachel Ray show and Rachel said she is her personal dermatologist! She did a great job explaining procedures that keep you young. She and her staff are great and I am very happy with my results.

I have been going to Dr. Chapas for seven months now and I am very pleased with the condition of my acne. I have had acne for 17 years, been on every kind of topical treatment, oral antibiotics, accutane twice with unsatisfactiry results. I have been going for smoothbeam laser treatment for the past 7 months (7 treatments) and it has been the only treatment that has every worked. I really just wish that I had her as a doctor 17 years ago. As for Dr. Chapas, she is everything a doctor should be; knowledgeable, personal, and wants to see you look the best you possible can. Not to mention very nice on the eyes. If you are looking for a great doctor in the NYC area, I strongly advise scheduling an apointment with Dr. Chapas.
