Stretch marks may appear on your belly and can make you feel too ashamed to wear a bikini, to change clothes in front of other women at the gym, or even to undress in front of your husband. Stomach stretch marks appear as a result of great weight gain and loss, often due to pregnancy. Pregnancy stretch marks can leave unattractive, reddish purple marks covering your hips and breasts, but are specially inclined to affect your belly.

Erase Old Stretch Marks

Stretch marks are caused when the skin is pulled beyond its ability to stretch, resulting in small tears. Upon healing, these tears are replaced with scar tissue. These rippled and pale scars are what we call striae, or stretch marks. Because scar tissue contains less pigment than normal skin, they stay paler than the rest of your skin when you tan. Striae often begin as red, angry ripples, which slowly turn into silvery white ripples as the years go by.

The skin is a remarkable organ. It's not only the largest organ in the body, but also one of the most complex. Collagen and elastin, two proteins that give skin its binding nature and elasticity, allow the skin to stretch to extremes. When our skin doesn't have the necessary amounts of collagen and elastin, stomach stretch marks can appear. In order to avoid stretch marks, it is helpful to rub a high quality cream that contains elastin and collagen regenerative triggers. By rubbing these triggers into your skin, twice a day you can help your skin's recovery. This is not done with a cream that contains bovin collagen or elastin, ingredients that only achieve a temporarily moist attraction to your skin. This is done by using a cream that contains elements similar to those found in our own bodies. You can also use a cream that triggers the replacement of flawed skin cells and the production of new collagen and elastin to repair striae that have already occurred.

There are some creams that contain biological activators like those of your body's own reconstructive processes to avoid and eliminate stretch marks. These creams stimulate and control an orderly production of collagen, elastin and GAGs and the replacement of flawed skin with healthy skin cells.

With regular use (twice a day for a period of time depending on how serious the blemishes are) these types of cream dissolves flawed cells, gently dissolves skin lesions, shrinks and even erases all signs of stretch marks. It also kills pathogens and triggers the synthesis of normal collagen, improving elasticity.
