Stretch Mark Serum By DermalMD

Stretch marks are a normal part of growth. Whether from pregnancy, weight gain, or a growth spurt, skin often cannot accommodate fast growth and thus develops striae, the medical term for stretch marks. These can lead to unsightly, scar-like lines that make people feel insecure or ashamed. However, there is no need to live with stretch marks. We now know the underlying cause of stretch marks and can effectively prevent and treat them. Stretch marks are caused by a variety of factors.

The answer to preventing and healing stretch marks lies in medical research. We now know that striae, or stretch marks, are caused when there is not enough elastin and collagen in skin to accommodate stretching in times of rapid growth. Encouraging cells to create more collagen and elastin can prevent stretch marks from forming or sharply decrease the number that occur.

Once stretch marks are present, they are still treatable. Like other types of scar, stretch marks are areas of unhealthy tissue. This tissue does not have a good blood supply and thus does not get the nutrients that it needs to heal itself. DermalMD's Stretch Mark Serum supplies these nutrients and antioxidants while also encouraging the cells in the stretch marks to begin producing collagen and elastin. The result is that the stretch marks look and feel like normal skin eventually.
