Can laser eliminate stretch marks?

Q: I have been doing weight training for the last five years but recently I have put on and again lost weight and developed big stretch marks around my shoulder area. I have tried applying many vitamin E enriched creams also but it does not work to my satisfaction. I want to get rid of this as I do part time modelling. I have recently heard that the marks can be removed with the laser treatment. So can you please advice where I can get it done in UK, is it safe?

A:Unfortunately there is no cure for stretch marks, laser or no laser.
