The Facts About Your Stretch Mark Solution
by Maia Pells
Looking for a good stretch mark solution can be both a very challenging and frustrating experience. Since people's skins are unique, not all methods have the same level of effectiveness. Discover the facts about different solutions and see what solution will work best for you.
Fact #1: Stretch mark solution advice will depend on who you're asking.
Different people have different views on how to best remove stretch mark. For example, your dermatologist may suggest that a dermabrasion session is the best solution for you while your surgeon may suggest surgery. In truth, every stretch mark solution option have their advantages and disadvantages.
Dermabrasion may be less effective than surgery but on the other hand, it is a less invasive solution. Dermabrasion may simply be described as a more drastic form of skin exfoliation where very fine wires rapidly spin across your skin, getting rid of dead skin cells to make room for new skin. However, this does not directly address the problem of stretch mark since stretch marks develop from the inner layers of the skin.
Surgery is more effective as a stretch mark solution but it is more risky, more invasive as well as costly. Stretch mark surgery is also not available for all parts of the body and as of the moment, only tummy tuck is available to remove abdominal stretch mark. Unfortunately, tummy tuck can result to weeks of discomfort and pain, not to mention the high danger of infection as well a the possibility of a more visible scar.
Fact #2: The least invasive stretch mark solution is to leave the marks as they are.
There are also some people who will advise you to simple avoid doing anything or applying anything on the stretch mark scars since these may eventually fade over time. However, this wait-and-see stretch mark solution would mean that you have to wait and possibly waste some of the best years of your life until the stretch marks simply fade. In addition to waiting, there is also the possibility that you gain more weight over time and thus, instead of diminishing the scars, time and more weight will only add more to it.
Wearing one-piece suits to the beach and covering your body the whole summer would be half the fun. However, it is better than feeling self-conscious about yourself in front of others.
Fact #3: Practical and natural means of removing stretch marks may not always have lasting effects but they are the safest and most active way of removing the scars.
Instead of spending your entire life's savings on risky and invasive medical or cosmetic procedures to get rid of stretch marks, there is still one way to get rid or prevent those stretch marks from getting worse: losing or maintaining your weight. The more you watch and maintain your weight, the lesser chances of you acquiring more stretch marks and with the aid of a healthy diet, you can heal your existing stretch mark from its roots, from the inner layers of the skin.
Cardio and aerobic exercises are other stretch mark solutions. Exercise can help improve your blood circulation and proper distribution of nutrients and oxygen to your skin, making it more supple, elastic, thus, less likely to develop stretch marks. Some exercises are not good to remove stretch marks, however, like muscle building. Because of muscle expansion, muscle building will more likely add to your stretch marks than remove it.
For added results, accompany your natural stretch marks solution with supplements to provide your body with more nutrients that are good for you skin.
