Stretch marks are one of the most common aesthetic concerns. Most women, and some men, suffer from them for much of their lives, and they are very difficult to eliminate. Precisely because of that, the key to combating them is prevention. Discover why, how and when they form, and prevent their appearance.
WHAT THEY ARE AND WHY THEY APPEARStretch marks are scars that occur when the elastic fibers of the dermis tear. This happens during periods when the skin is stretched or strained too fast and canât adapt to this sudden growth. Lack of tissue elasticity, hormonal imbalances or genetic inheritance influence their appearance.
There are times in our lives when we are at greater risk of developing stretch marks, such as during pregnancy âbetween 50-90% of pregnant women have themâ puberty or weight loss diets. In addition, there are areas of our body where they tend to appear more easily, such as thighs, buttocks abdomen, breasts, arms and back. Take care of those areas of your body by giving them a lot of hydration to preserve skin tone and elasticity and resist tension without being affected.
Did you know that you can distinguish at what stage of evolution stretch marks are? You just have to look at their color. At first, they are pink and reddish, and after a while, they turn white and pearl-colored. That first stage âred stretch marksâ is decisive, because it is when they are easier to fade. Check your skin regularly to control the appearance of stretch marks and address them as soon as possible.
