Stretch Marks Treatments
Stretch Marks - Stretch marks often occur during puberty when the tissue under the skin is pulled by rapid growth or weight gain, causing a disruption in the normal production of collagen and challenging the skin’s natural ability to stretch. As a result, scars called stretch marks may form, first appearing as reddish or purplish lines that have a different texture than surrounding skin. With time stretch marks turn white and are less noticeable. Bodybuilders are also susceptible to forming stretch marks because of the rapid body changes that bodybuilding can produce. The use of steroid-containing creams or ointments (such as hydrocortisone) or high doses of corticosteroids taken by mouth for months or longer can also cause this condition.StriVectin SD is formulated to help PREVENT stretch marks.
