Stretch marks are curved lines from the abdomen, breasts, hips, buttocks, or other parts of the body. They are common in pregnant women, especially during the last trimester. Stretch marks are painless and harmless, but some people do not like the way they make their skin look. Stretch marks do not require treatment. They often disappear over time, with or without treatment. He may never disappear completely. Symptoms; Stretching symptoms are not all the same. They vary depending on how long you have them, what they cause, where they are in your body and the type of skin you have. Common changes include: strokes or curves on the abdomen, breasts, hips, buttocks or other parts of the body, pink, red, black, blue or purple stripes, and light streaks fade to a lighter color, strokes that cover large areas of the body. Stretch Marks, known to the medical community as erythrocyanosis, is a type of scarring that can occur when a person's skin is over-stretched. Two Main Causes of Stretching Are: 1) Pregnancy 2) Obesity Appearance: Stretch marks have the first appearance of purple or red lines. Over time Stretch Marks may fade to white or almost white. Stretch Marks are a very common situation. Just think of all the people who are pregnant or obese! Stretch Marks are not limited to women - few people are aware that they are a common complaint of male bodybuilders. Three Stretch Mark Solutions; Stretch Mark treatment varies from exit and exit scams to other more intelligent and scientific remedies. The three most common are: DERMABRASION; this is a serious medical procedure that occurs under general anesthetic. Dermabrasion is by no means a weak heart. In Dermabrasion the surface of the skin is literally removed by a sanding process. The purpose of dermabrasion is to remove (or at least reduce) the appearance of scars, damage from the sun or dark spots. The procedure is obviously very painful (which is why it is a common anesthetic) and the healing process can take a few months. However, the results can be very positive. Dermabrasion works best when the scar or the treatment mark is above the skin and is usually less effective when used to treat dead scars. Warning: Finding a common anesthetic is NOT something to be taken lightly; there are natural hazards and can be life threatening. Always seek a second medical opinion (talk to more than one doctor). MICRODERMABRASION; Commonly known as Microderm this is a very slow attack that is very popular throughout the Day Spa and cosmetics industry. In Microdermabrasion the upper layer of skin is removed using a special stick with a firm surface that forms a thin layer of sand on the skin. The shredded skin particles are extracted by a suction machine attached to the wand. People like Microdermabrasion because it has a reputation for being a safe, painless procedure that does not require anesthesia. SKIN CREAMS; This is one of those places where you may have encountered uncontrollable claims and the common ‘rule of thumb’ here is that if something sounds too good to be true it may be true. Having said that, there are tens of thousands of real people vowing for things like Vitamin A Cream, Coconut Butter and various specially formulated cosmetics. One thing you can do is ask people who are trying to sell you any Stretch Mark Removal treatment to show you before and after photos of their last 50 clients. Also, ask for written evidence. Dermatologists also say that proper nutrition, nutritional supplements, rest and mindfulness (to avoid excessive exposure to the sun) can have a profound effect on the skin's ability to heal and its normal appearance. When to see a doctor? See your doctor if you are concerned about the appearance of your skin or if stretch marks cover large areas of your body. Your doctor can help determine the cause of stretch marks and discuss treatment options.
