LET'S TALK STRIAE

Make no mistake, stretch marks or stretch marks are something that is very common, especially women are confronted with them. Just think of the stretch marks. But we don't actually talk about it yet and we prefer not to show our stretch marks. Yet it is common and nothing to be ashamed of!!! But, can you prevent it? And will you ever get rid of it?

WHAT IS STRETCH MARKS?

Stretch marks are stripes on the skin of the body that can occur when the skin experiences rapid growth. The best-known example is that of stretch marks on a woman's abdomen during pregnancy, the so-called stretch marks.

The abnormal stretching of the skin causes the skin's supporting structure of collagen and elastin to break down or tear.

WHAT CAN YOU DO ABOUT IT?

Not very much. Unfortunately. You cannot prevent stretch marks. You have no control over this, even during a pregnancy where you use a lot of oil on your stomach, because stretch marks form inside your body. You can always – hydration is ALWAYS good for the skin – pamper your skin extra with a good, nourishing body butter. That certainly can't hurt – not even for pregnant ladies. I just think of the SELF Fine Delicate Body Butter that is packed with natural and nourishing ingredients.

But if you really have already formed stretch marks, then I'm honest and you should resort to the coarser remedies: prescribed retinoids - peelings or laser treatments. But: if you have a predisposition, it is difficult to prevent. Do you already have stretch marks? Then unfortunately it is very difficult to remove, even with the crudest means.
