Hope for those with Stretch Marks
Many things can cause stretch marks. Some examples are weight gain, muscles enlargement, and hormonal changes brought about by pregnancy and puberty. Although we only see women in stretch marks campaigns, it is important to note that around 40% of men get stretch marks. Still, women are definitely more prone to these skin scarring. Around 70% of all women get stretch marks. In both gender, the most common locations of stretch marks are breasts, abdomen, shoulders, and buttocks.
Currently, there are two things that you can do to help get rid of stretch marks. These are using topical creams and undergoing surgery.
Most topical creams that aim to remove stretch marks contain tretinoin and retinol. These are derivatives of Vitamin A. They are effective because Vitamin A is known for its collagen production boosting powers. As you know, collagen is important in keeping our skin elastic, thus, free from stretch marks.
Surgical operations that are known for being able to treat stretch marks are Intense Pulsed Light therapy and tummy tucks. A tummy tuck is effective at helping reduce the visibility of stretch marks on the abdominal area. Intense Pulse Light therapy involves the application of light of multitude wavelengths on the skin. Gradually, skin condition improves. The color of the stretch marks improves and collagen production is boosted as well.
