Backgound: Stria distensea is considered a destress for the women. Weight gain, family history of stretch marks, steroid use and pregnancy are considered the most common causes of its existance. Striae distensea treatment is considered a challenge, there are different methods in treatment of stria, but till now no single treatment is considered the best treatment for it. Objective: This study aimed to evaluate and compare the effect of dermapen alone and dermapen combined with topical ascorbic acid in treatment of striae distensae. Patients and methods: This study was conducted on 45 patients with stretch marks. Stretch marks treatment in each patient was divided into 2 groups. First group of stretch marks (right side) was treated with dermapen only: 3 sessions with 4 weeks interval. Second group (left side) was treated with dermapen combined with topical ascorbic acid with the same number of sessions. Result: Our study revealed the effectiveness of both methods in treatment of stretch marks, but also it showed a difference in clinical improvement among the two groups concerning change in Manchester Scar Scale (MSS) score after treatment in favor of using dermapen with topical ascorbic acid, which gave better result than using dermapen alone. Conclusion: The current study concluded that combination of vitamin C and dermapen is promising therapeutic modality with better satisfaction compared to dermapen alone in terms of stretch marks treatment with no adverse events.
