What are stretch marks?

Stretch marks are indented streaks that appear on your skin, also called stria. They occur as a result of your skin stretching, which happens naturally with growth and bodily change. Stretch marks can have different appearances: they may be pale, pink, red, or purple in color. Often, they fade over time, but they might not completely disappear naturally. Stretch marks are not dangerous and do not pose any risk to your health.

Prevention

How to prevent stretch marks

The best thing you can do to prevent stretch marks is to minimize rapid changes in your body. If you are trying to gain or lose weight or are starting a new exercise program, make sure that you aim for small, incremental changes. This is healthier for your body in many ways. Of course, changes due to pregnancy and puberty are largely outside of your control. Especially if you are going through these changes, you can minimize your risk of serious stretch marks by keeping your skin hydrated and moisturized. Make sure you’re drinking plenty of water every day, and apply a daily moisturizer with high SPF and high zinc oxidie content such as BeautiRx Daily moisturizer. These can help to keep your skin more elastic.

How

What causes stretch marks?

Stretch marks can occur any time your skin is stretching as your body grows. The most common changes that cause stretch marks are: Pregnancy — Puberty — Sudden weight gain or weight loss — Bodybuilding.

Stretch marks can appear as a result of growth coming from fat or muscles. They are most common on the stomach, hips, buttocks, thighs, upper arms, and breasts. Almost everyone has some form of stretch marks, so they are not something to be ashamed of. For some, however, stretch marks may appear more severe and may be a source of insecurity.

Who is at risk for stretch marks?

Anyone can get stretch marks as their body changes. People of all genders can get them, and they most commonly occur at puberty and during pregnancy. Some people, however, are more susceptible to stretch marks. The following conditions might make you more likely to develop stretch marks: Pregnancy, especially when young — Family history of stretch marks — Rapid weight gain or loss.

Other, more subtle factors in your skin and genes can impact your likelihood of getting stretch marks. High cortisol levels weaken your skin elasticity, so your hormones can play a role. On the other hand , higher collagen levels help to keep your skin healthy and elastic.
