Striae – The Facts.

June 3rd, 2009 by author

Huge amounts of individuals all over the world have to deal with strech marks. Both males and females will find them showing after periods of significant growth such as puberty. Women, as is often the case, suffer with them after pregnancy.

They occur as our skin attempts to keep up with the rate of growth in the muscles, bones or, in the instance of pregnancy, baby. Invariably though, it fails to do so and tears form in the middle layer of skin, known as the Dermis. These tears appear as red streaks at first and change over time to a silvery colour.

The stretch marks are actually areas of skin with lower levels of collagen. As the skin is ripped apart during the growth phase, it does not manage to restore itself so that it looks like its former state. Of course, it is only a cosmetic concern as there is practically no medical disadvantage to having these marks, the cosmetic concerns, however, are great. They make you feel self concious in front of people and don’t look very nice.

To remove stretch marks involves increasing the levels of collagen within the Dermis layer of skin. This is best done by increasing your own physical natural ability to generate collagen rather than introducing it from external sources. The most common way of doing this is microneedling with derma rollers, an effective collagen induction therapy.

The other additional advantage of this type of treatment, is the way in which it increases the effectiveness of oils and creams, such as the very popular bio oil. It gives these lotions the opportunity to permeate the upper levels of skin to a far greater degree providing a much improved result.

As with anything health or medical related, it is vital to do your research and consult your doctor before beginning or using any product or treatment.
