Stretch marks

Online skin doctor for stretch marks

Lines on the stomach, thighs, hips, breasts or arms after pregnancy, a weight change, a growth spurt or gym. New red or purple marks respond better than old silvery ones. Send photos and the skin doctor tells you what can help and what to expect honestly.

₹299 for a chat consult.

  • Dr. Rohini K replies within 30 minutes, day or night.
  • Prescription in the chat and on WhatsApp, when one is right
  • 48 hours of follow-up questions included

What to send the doctor

  1. Daylight photos of the marks, close and from further away.
  2. How old the marks are, and whether they are red, purple or silvery.
  3. Whether you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  4. Steroid creams or tablets you have used, rapid weight gain, and gym supplements.

What the doctor looks for

  • New marks (red or purple) or old marks (silvery), which decides what can help.
  • Marks caused by steroid creams or tablets.
  • Wide purple marks with other body changes that point to a hormone problem.
  • Itching or skin changes around the marks.

What the plan usually covers

  • Prescription creams for new marks, when you are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • A moisturising routine for itchy, stretched skin.
  • Whether treatments given in person, such as microneedling or laser, would help old marks.
  • Honest expectations: marks fade and flatten, but rarely disappear.

The doctor decides what is right for you. A prescription is written only when one is appropriate.

When a chat is not enough

See a doctor in person today if you have:
  • Wide purple marks with a rounder face, weight gain around the belly, easy bruising or high blood pressure. See a doctor for hormone tests.

Questions

Can stretch marks be removed completely?
Usually not. Treatment makes them fade and flatten, and new red marks respond best.
Do oils and creams in pregnancy prevent stretch marks?
The evidence is weak. Moisturising helps the itch and dryness, but genes and how fast the skin stretches matter most.
What helps old white stretch marks?
Creams do little for old marks. Treatments given in person, such as microneedling or laser, help more, over several sessions.
Who will I be speaking to?
Dr. Rohini K (MBBS, IFAAM (Aesthetic Medicine), Fellowship in Cosmetic Dermatology), the skin and hair doctor on PingMeDoc™'s teleconsultation panel. Every skin and hair consult booked through Chamak goes to the skin doctor, day or night, with a reply usually within 30 minutes.
What does it cost?
₹299 for a chat consult. Audio or video from ₹499. The price is shown before you pay and covers the written plan and 48 hours of follow-up questions in the same chat.
Will I get a prescription?
Only if the doctor finds one appropriate. When issued, it is a digital prescription sent in the chat and on WhatsApp, valid at any pharmacy.
Where does the consult happen?
Booking, payment and the chat run on www.pingmedoc.com, our teleconsultation site. You are asked for a phone number and a one-time code at payment, and nothing before that. Chamak and PingMeDoc are the same company.
