ABSTRACT
Striae distensae are atrophic dermal scars associated with psychosocial stress. Several treatments have been used but there is no gold standard until now. Fractional photothermolysis has been described as a successful and safe method to treat scars. In this description, we report 4 patients (Fitzpatrick phototype IV) who developed striae distensae after long-term use of topical corticosteroids and were successfully treated with fractional nonablative 1540 nm Erbium glass laser.
