What Are Stretch Marks?

Stretch marks are often the result of the rapid stretching of the skin associated with rapid growth or weight gain due to the pregnancy, weight gain or muscle building that overcomes the dermis’s elasticity. Although the skin is usually fairly elastic, when it’s overstretched, the normal production of collagen (the major protein that makes up the connective tissue in your skin) is disrupted. As a result, scars called stretch marks may form. If you’re noticing stretch marks on your body, you’re not alone. Moist women have stretch marks after pregnancy.

How to Prevent Pregnancy Stretch Marks

• Drink plenty of fluids. Properly hydrate your skin and maintain its elasticity.
• Maintain healthy weight gain. Make sure that you diet is full of vegetables and fruits. Eating healthy is great for your baby and your skin. If your body decides that you baby needs more vitamins then it will start to pull vitamins from your body.
• Try the stretch mark creams, salves and oils that made specifically for this cause. Apply lotion daily and nightly.Moisturizing your skin will help increase its elasticity and help reduce pregnancy stretch marks. You can use a simple moisturizing lotion or you can buy special stretch mark lotions, creams and oils.
• Be patient. It will take time for your stretch marks to fade. Anywhere from 2 months to 1 year.

What heals pregnancy stretch marks?

Stretch marks can be prevented by regaining skin’s firmness, strength, suppleness, and elasticity. This can be achieved with the help of biological molecules formed by glycans (complex sugar chains) and peptides, proteins and enzymes that promote the orchestrated and orderly proliferation of all the structural elements of healthy skin: collagen, elastin and glycosaminoglycans. To increase the speed of this healing period using natural oils and creams are highly recommended.
