Stretch marks are a major problem nowadays. 90% of pregnant women have this problem, 70% of the teenagers and 40% of sportspersons have to face stretch marks. They appear when the dermal surface is stretched for a longer time and the skin loses its elasticity, because the conjunctive tissue fibers are torn. Obviously stomach stretch marks are really disagreeable and women wonder if they can be treated. Firstly you must be very patient. At the beginning stomach stretch marks have a reddish color, but it loses intensity in time.

If prevention is no longer an option, the next step is finding a suitable treatment to get rid of those stretch marks. Moisturizers and creams can also be used even if stretch marks are present, since they can trigger the natural healing process in which skin can repair itself. Vitamin E and cocoa butter are two key ingredients that can allow the skin to heal itself, and can actually help by reducing the appearance of stretch marks on the skin. Creams that contain alpha hydroxy acids can also be very beneficial, since they can make the skin softer, can exfoliate the skin, and even trigger new cell growth to fill in the areas where the dermis was once torn.

One of the permanent solutions that have come up in recent times is laser therapy. This is typically a simple procedure and usually requires little or no recovery time. Using lasers to remove stretch marks works because it repairs the skin's natural synthesis of collagen. Collagen is a protein rich compound occurring in the body that repairs and rejuvenates skin tissue. Cosmetic laser treatment for stretch marks works to stimulate renewed growth of depleted collagen. It removes damaged skin tissue, seals broken blood vessels and repairs the fibers of the middle skin. This helps in filling the stretch marks. This can, however, be a relatively expensive option.

Stretch marks generally fade considerably within a year of giving birth. Still, some women are bothered enough by them to seek further methods for reducing their appearance and resort to topical applications, creams, and even surgery. A tummy-tuck can hide stretch marks on the stomach, although leaving a scar in their place. Also, doctors can prescribe a tretinoin cream after giving birth which can reduce the appearance of stretch marks. The sooner after delivery these topical treatments are used, the more effective they are. Overall, women consider stretch marks a small price to pay for the new bundle of joy in their life.

Nourishes the skin deep inside, dissolves scar tissues and releases the aminoacids and other components in them for the reproduction of fibroblasts which give rise to new connective tissues and glycosaminoglycans -the molecules that deeply moisturize, firm skin and give it strenght and capacity to withstand over-stretching. It also replenishes the lipid barrier of the skin and triggers the regeneration of damaged cells while preventing and removing acne scars, keratosis, psoriasis scales and all types of skin blemishes.

Laser surgery is the best way to remove stretch marks from the body. One school of thought grants that there is no proof in carry of the assumption that laser treatments can eliminate stretch marks.
