Stretch marks treatment: how to get rid and prevent their appearance

Stretch marks are an acquired defect of the skin and subcutaneous fat caused by a sharp change in hormonal levels and / or weight. These changes lead to a disruption in the production of collagen and elastin - two basic components of the skin. They can occur in both women and men at any age. Causes may include physiological hormonal changes, endocrine disorders, severe weight changes, less commonly cancer

Physiological changes causing stretch marks

In a person's life, several moments of physiological hormonal changes share. The first moment in the life of both women and men is puberty. In adolescence, during the manifestation of secondary sexual characteristics, an increase in the level of adrenal hormones occurs, which can lead to disruption of metabolic processes in the skin and, in fact, to the formation of stretch marks.

The second moment is pregnancy. During this period, in addition to changing the level of normal fluctuations in estrogen and progesterone, there is a physical stretching of the skin with an increase in the abdomen, mammary glands and hips.

The third and last moment, both in women and men, is the so-called menopause. The level of sex hormones decreases, which often leads to an increase in body weight and, again, physical stretching of the skin.

Pathological hormonal changes: pay attention!

The appearance of stretch marks outside the period of physiological hormonal changes should be alarming! Since hormonal fluctuations that are not caused by anything most often indicate endocrine or oncological diseases.
If you notice such changes, you should consult a doctor as soon as possible.
The cause of such changes can be diseases such as:

  • diabetes type 1 and 2
  • Cushing's syndrome

various types of oncology.

What is the detrimental effect of an intense increase in body weight

This is exactly the case when the skin simply does not keep up with the increase in body weight. Due to slower growth, burgundy-blue breaks appear on the skin. Often, such changes appear on the chest during lactation and in the hips with sharp squats.

Avoiding stretch marks is easy enough, but time consuming

To do this, you should monitor your diet and exercise regularly. During pregnancy, it is important to undergo massage courses and nourish the skin of likely problem areas. It is also worth using special bandages for the abdomen, which are designed to reduce the load on the spine and protect against gravitational ptosis.

    Хотела уточнить, моим растяжкам уже около трех лет, поможет ли мне данная процедура? Дело в том, что сначала не было времени и денег заниматься устранением растяжек, а сейчас боюсь, что уже поздно и такой ужас на животе останется до конца жизни. Кто пробовал через время делать процедуру, помогла ли вам она избавиться от растяжек? Заранее спасибо за ответ.

    В каком возрасте еще не поздно заниматься и лечением, и профилактикой растяжек? Если уже перейден 40 летний рубеж, будет ли эффект от процедуры или это уже неизменяемый процесс и остается только смирится с появлением очередной кожной проблемы? Возможно посоветуете варианты решения, конечно не хотелось бы пластики и ножа хирурга, болезненные процедуры не очень привлекательны.
