Stretch
Marks
Stretch marks occur in both men and women, but are more common in women, with up to 90% of women experiencing stretch marks during puberty, pregnancy or rapid weight gain.
Men may experience stretch marks from rapid weight gain. Although stretch marks are not a medical problem, they can cause embarrassment and self-consciousness.
If you are upset or distressed about your stretch marks, there is a safe and effective treatment option available that will improve their appearance and give you back your confidence with industry-leading stretch mark removal treatment.
Your Concerns
- Rippled, streaky lines in your skin come in different colours.
- They fade from red or pink to purplish-blue to thinner, pale, more scar-like streaks over time.
- They can show up on many parts of your body from arms, back, breasts, buttocks, hips, shoulders, stomach or torso.
Stretch marks, also called Striae are areas of skin that look like red or purple bands, strips, or lines. As the name suggests, stretchmarks are the result of the skin stretching, whether the stretch is excessive or minimal.
There are a number of causes, but the most common are:
- Pregnancy
- Rapid changes in weight
- Adolescent growth spurts, or
- Increased level of the hormone cortisol
