Background: Stretch marks (Stiae Distencae, SD) are visible linear scars which form in areas of dermal damage produced by stretching of the skin.Stretch marks or stiae distencae are a very common problem in which treatment remains a challenge. In early stages stiae appear pink to red (stiae rubra), which over time become atrophic and attained a white colour (stiae alba). Objectives: This work aims to evaluate the role of microneedling in treatment of stretch marks. Methods:The study was conducted on 20 patients with stretch marks. The age of patients ranged from 17 to 45 years. Results: Clinical improvement in most of cases which was in the form of improvement of texture, pigmentation and decrease of length and width of stretch marks. Conclusion: Microneedling is safe, simple and effective method in treatment of stretch marks .
