Pregnancy is not the only time in life when stretch marks appear. Puberty is a time of many growth spurts that can cause stretching in the skin over a period of time, as can weight lifting and bodybuilding. Losing weight quickly can also lead you to look for a skin care products.
To get rid of stretch marks first requires an understanding of how stretch marks are caused. Stretch marks occur on the skin for several reasons. Weight gain, pregnancy or weight loss can make them appear. The stretch marks occur in the dermis layer of the skin, the middle layer. To understand stretch marks better, we must examine the skin in detail.
The only effective pregnancy skin care products that prevent stretch marks and reduce the likelihood of stretch marks (scars) are those that contain biological substances that signal your body to regenerate collagen, elastin and glyco molecules, GAGs, that hydrate the skin from within your own body at a quick pace, while they also reduce inflammation and dissolve damaged skin cells.
Most of the people and even the teenagers have stretch marks. Up to 70 percent of the pregnant women get stretch marks. They are small depressed streaks in the skin that can affect both men and women. Stretch marks are weaknesses in the supporting structure of the skin causing layers of the skin to separate, leaving the skin discolored and grooved. Other names of stretch marks are striae distense, striae atrophicans, striae ruba, striae alba.
The main reason for pregnancy-related stretch marks is uncontrolled weight gain. So, control your weight gain by following an intelligent diet and exercising regime during the pregnancy. Walking and stretching are also highly recommended thus during pregnancy. With these precautions, weight gain will follow the normal pattern and your skin will not be subjected to abrupt stretches.
Exercise will help you regain the body you had prior to becoming pregnant. And also keep in mind that one of the most critical factors that determine the answers to these questions is how healthy you were during your pregnancy - both physically and mentally.
Walking, jogging, aerobics, yoga, and many other types of exercise will allow you to lose the extra weight more quickly and you will feel better at the end of each day.
The most popular and simplest treatment for stretch marks during pregnancy is using lotions and creams to lessen the severity of them. Many companies sell lotion formulas with cocoa butter, which is said to help reduce the appearance of stretch marks on the skin. These lotions are not going to be the cheapest on the shelf, but if a person is willing to spend a few dollars more than they would on regular lotion, they can use this method to treat their stretch marks during pregnancy.
Removing Stretch Marks:
1. Using lasers to remove stretch marks works because it repairs the skin's natural synthesis of collagen.
2. Collagen is a protein rich compound occurring in the body that repairs and rejuvenates skin tissue.
3. Cosmetic laser treatment for stretch marks works to stimulate renewed growth of depleted collagen.
The best way to get rid of stretch marks is visiting a dermatologist or plastic surgeon. These doctors can actually help you with various treatments like actual surgery, and laser treatment that diminish the appearance of stretch marks.
