I am at exactly 6 months now and I have definitely seen improvement, but not the 80% I was told I could expect. I do believe there has been more improvement in just the last month, maybe a total of about 50%. I suspect when I see the "before" pictures at my doctor's office, it may really be more than 50%, but watching the gradual progress makes it hard to judge. I never took any of my own pictures.
The clinic is called The Aesthetic Surgery Institute. There is an office in Annapolis for consultations and an office in Prince Frederick where the actual laser resides.
I haven't made my follow-up appointment yet. I plan to do that in late June just to give it an extra month. At that point, we were going to discuss next steps. She initially told me she would do complimentary touch-ups on any areas I was not satisfied with, but that would be the whole abdomen, since only a few of the very, very small stretch marks went completely away. I'm not sure what she meant by "satisfied" since she told me best case would be 80% improvement. I guess I am satisfied to some degree, but honestly, if the stretch marks are still there at all, then I don't think I'll ever be completely satisfied.
We'll see how the next month goes and how my next conversation with the doctor goes. I will let you all know the outcome.
