Atrophic stretch marks constitute skin disorders characterized by the loss of collagen and elastin in the dermis, and resemble scars. Fractional lasers, microneedling and chemical peels have led to good outcomes in some cases, however there is no ideal treatment. Objective: The objective of the present retrospective clinical study was to evaluate the effectiveness of Pulsed Radiofrequency with Multineedles (RFPM) in late atrophic stretch marks. Methods: A retrospective study of the safety and effectiveness of the technique was carried out by evaluating outcomes with the application of a patient satisfaction questionnaire and the assessment of clinical results by independent dermatologist physicians. Results: A total of 8 patients (aged between 22 and 38 years) who underwent the technique were evaluated, of whom 100% reported satisfaction with the outcomes. Additionally, in the comparative evaluation of photographs carried out by two independent dermatologist physicians, the improvement rate was 50% in 2 patients and 75% in 8 patients . Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation was observed in 10 to 20 days after the treatment in 6 patients, having been reversed after clinical treatment. Conclusions: The new procedure is an option in the treatment of atrophic stretch marks.
