How To Say Goodbye To Stretchmarks

By Natalgia Rysen


Stretch marks are similar to a scar from a wound. What happens is the skin is stretched by rapid growth like growing tall quickly or gaining weight quickly. All layers of the skin are stretched beyond the physical limitations of the cellular composition of the tissue. The skin and is unable to grow to keep pace. This causes subtotal tearing. It's not a open wound, the internal/external barrier is still intact, although weakened.

The body responds to this in a damage control response. Simply; Fibroblasts migrate into the voids left by the stretching and crudely begin to proliferate to increase the thickness of the barrier to the external environment. This is different than normal growth because these cells are not derived from semi-differentiated stem cells which are capable of forming more specialized cells. The various stem cells are able to form multiple cells of different types and give an organ like the skin its complexity. This is different from scarring as collagenous fibroblasts replicate and form cell types of limited complexity; these are unable to emulate skin that formed in utero.

This 'patch' doesn't fully come back to its original state before the damage. The stem cells and underlying tissues are damaged, missing or both. Nevertheless, over time the scaring becomes less pronounced as long as additional damage doesn't occur. These patches also provide limited tanning, sensing and protective capacities.

Some topical treatments may increase the "elasticity" of your skin, causing it to pull in on itself more also lowering the size of the scars. If the marks come from rapid weight gain, losing weight may reduce their appearance. Physical exercise generally tends to make tissues more dense and stronger. At present there is no full treatment for stretch-marks. Even so, listed here are 5 tips that you can actually try.

Argan oil - you can try the best argan oil hair items on the stretchmarks and you can watch them melt away. Many argan oil review posts have pointed out that the formulation of argan oil for hair care also does miracles on stretchmarks.

Cocoa butter - this can help keep the skin elastic. It is more of a preventive option rather than a stretchmark eliminator.

Laser therapy - if you can afford it and if a reliable clinic is available, laser therapy can definitely help eliminate your scars.

Surgery - if you hate stretchmarks so much, you can cut out the affected skin and let new skin grow on top of it.

Acceptance - clearly, if you can't afford cures, it is a lot better to just accept your stretch-marks and put them on as a badge of recognition. It is less difficult by doing this.
