Decoding stretch marks and how to get rid of them?

The skin like fields in the drought season is not a secret pain of women.

Almost everyone has at least a few stretch marks. Stretch marks can even be viewed as a good thing, as they are a clear sign of changes happening in your body and the way your skin communicates. “Stretch marks are a natural part of the skin and changes we go through throughout our lives,” says Samantha Ellis, a dermatologist and clinical instructor of dermatology at the University of California, Davis. These ugly stretch marks are a type of scarring that occurs when areas of skin rapidly expand or contract. This sudden change damages the skin’s important structural fibers – collagen and elastin, leading to stretch marks as the skin heals. The care or healing of stretch marks requires a proactive approach. Here’s a guide to preventing and treating stretch marks. Causes of stretch marks Pregnancy is one of the best known causes behind stretch marks, with sudden weight gain being one reason. However, according to Dr. Ellis, anything that promotes a rapid change in body size can cause stretch marks. This includes losing weight or gaining muscle too quickly. In addition, genetic factors can play a role in the cause of stretch marks. So don’t be surprised when stretch marks appear without an element of unexpected weight gain or loss. Remember that the reason behind them is what you need to pay attention to.

The question is, is there any way to erase those ugly stretch marks? According to Dr. Ellis, people can fade cracks and limit the formation of new cracks, but cannot completely treat them. To overcome the condition of skin cracks, it is recommended to have a reasonable diet, supplement with vitamins and appropriate exercise regime to increase the flexibility of elastic fibers. Besides, moisturizing the skin prevents some stretch marks. The lotion contains vitamins E, C and A, and jojoba oil to help smooth skin and reduce dryness. Also, stretch marks are notoriously difficult to treat and tend to be better treated in the early stages (still pink or red). That means you should be wary of products that claim to fade stretch marks and ingredients that don’t have the science to back them up. Clinic treatments include laser therapy, chemical peels, microdermabrasion, ultrasound, and radiofrequency.
