Hey guys i've just developed some stretch marks in between my pec's and shoulders. Just wondering is there any treatment i can use to reduce this.
I heard zinc was an option.
Any others
Plz get back much appreciated
Alas, you're being put on. While it is possible to make them less
noticeable, stretch marks *never* go completely away. Stretch marks
are permanent scars caused by tears in the dermis (the middle layer of
skin), the result of the loss of skin elasticity:
"It is impossible to completely eliminate stretch marks and so there
appears to be a point at which no further improvement will be seen."
"Although there are tons of products on the market that claim to
eliminate stretch marks, the truth is you can't make them go away
without the use of a form of plastic surgery called microdermabrasion.
If you are concerned about your stretch marks, talk to a
dermatologist."
Your skin is usually fairly elastic, but when you grow or gain weight really quickly (like during puberty), you may get fine lines on your body called stretch marks.
" Prescription creams containing Tretinoin, also called Retin-A, may
help reduce the appearance of fresh stretch marks. These creams should
not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. This type of treatment
will not eliminate stretch marks completely, and it won't work on
older marks that have already faded from red.
A French treatment called Endermologie claims to reduce scarring. A
machine with rollers and gentle suction is used to massage and
exfoliate the affected area. Again, this won't remove stretch marks,
but it may enhance the overall appearance of the skin.
Laser surgery is sometimes used to lessen the severity of stretch
marks, but the results are mixed. Microdermabrasion has been somewhat
more successful in changing the appearance of stretch marks. Both
treatments are expensive and should only be performed by qualified
doctors. "
There is something out there that seems to be effective in speeding
the healing process of cuts etc. as well as minimizing the appearance
of scars [of which I have many -due to diabetes -so I know what I'm
talking about]. It can be found at most health food/ alternative
medicine stores and many open air markets. It's concentrated Emu oil,
and all you need is a drop to apply it. I have been told that it works
best on scars less than five years old, but it seems to work all the
same in my experience. It's a little on the expensive side [~$25cdn a
small bottle] but way cheaper than the treatments you mentioned, and
if you find it doesn't work after a few applications on a test scar,
then you don't need to buy any more! Hope this helps
I RECENTLY HAD A BABY; NOW I HAVE THESE HORRIBLE STRETCH MARKS. I
DESPERATLEY NEED TO GET RID OF THEM, I RECENTLEY CAME ACROSS THIS
WEBSITE (http://www.beautybeyondskindeep.com/stretchmarks.htm) WERE
THIS LADY CLAIMS TO HAVE A TRTMNT SIMILAR TO LAZER TRTMNT BUT COSTING
AT ONLY $35 AND SHE OFFERS A 90 DAY MONEYBACK GURANTEE,SHE ALSO SHOWS
PICTURES ON HER OWN MARKS BFORE AND AFTER. I HAVENT TRIED IT MYSELF
BUT HER STORY SEEMED SLIGHTLY CONVINCING, I AM STILL WONDERING WETHER
OR NOT TO TRY, BEING THAT I AM VERY SKEPTICAL IN TRYING NEW THINGS BUT
MAYBE THIS CAN HELP; KEEP US POSTED
Wife used a cream after cosmetic surgery it is a script though. Desoximetasone cream usp it is to reduce scaring though. There are so many creams on the maket now days, and many are hype. Best thing to do is to talk to a board certified plastic surgeon in your state or one of their nuse staff and they could direct you as to product over the phone.
It is quite expensive. However, I got a full bottle for free (dont ask how ) So I am wondering if I should stack it with something else or not even bother. Thanks!
