Stretch Marks Treatment & Cosmetic Surgery

The first important fact to know about these colorful marks is that they can affect anyone at virtually any weight. Women are usually affected more than men, but either gender is susceptible to stretch marks. The most common reason why stretch marks form is pregnancy, but of course there are many others.

Stretch marks can appear on almost any part of the body, including the arms, legs, breasts, stomach, and back. Stretch marks are due to the skin stretching too quickly, hence the name. These marks pose no medical risk, but they can cause a drop in self-esteem and body image issues.

Stretch marks can also be caused by the skin rapidly shrinking, which is why many individuals start to notice these marks after losing a significant amount of weight. Growth spurts and gaining muscle mass can also cause lines to appear on the skin.

Not everyone develops these marks, and some individuals see their stretch marks fade away naturally over time. These marks may start out red or purple, but after some time they may change color to closer match the surrounding skin.

If you are frustrated by visible marks on your skin, there are many over-the-counter options. These creams and serums may not be effective for everyone, so you may need to look further.
