How to get Rid of Stretch Marks: Striae Treatment

|  Home  |

Stretch Marks (Striae)

Stretch marks are formed when the skin's building blocks (collagen and elastin) do not keep up with its need for growth. It means that the skin stretches at a rate that cannot be sustained by its elasticity. Stretch marks generally appear on the breasts, abdomen, buttocks, and the thighs, initially as faint red lines of varying length and widths, gradually becoming lighter than the surrounding skin.


The stretch marks are created when body's cortisone level increases, particularly in puberty, pregnancy, or weight gain, or sometimes due to cortisone medications. They are formed in the inner layers of the skin.
