No
one likes
stretch marks, but unfortunately many of us get them. Women are
especially susceptible to stretch marks during pregnancy as their hips
and belly grow at a rapid pace.
Thankfully there are some solutions to
preventing stretch marks and helping to get rid of stretch marks you
already have.
Aloe Vera is a natural remedy that helps to heal the skin
and prevent
or minimize stretch marks. Aloe Vera heals wounds and tears quickly and
incidentally stretch marks start as small tears in our skin.
Aloe Vera
has been used for centuries to reduce the appearance of scars and to
promote skin regeneration.
If you already have stretch marks that you want to get rid of, a really
great choice is DL-Penthenol because it actually heals damaged skin and
stimulates the growth of new skin cells.
It works on repairing the
structure in both the lower and upper layers of skin to replace scare
tissue with fresh skin.
DL-Penthenol also works well to prevent stretch marks by
stimulating
the production of collagen and elastin to give your skin more stretch
ability without tearing or scarring.
For smoothing out and preventing stretch marks you can use a Grapefruit
Seed Extract. It works to get rid of stretch marks by
restoring damaged
collagen and elastin in the skin.
By using Grapefruit Seed Extract you
will see your stretch marks becoming restructured.
Grapefruit Seed Extract is especially beneficial to rub on your body
during and right after pregnancy.
This will help to prevent stretch
marks and return your skin back to its before-pregnancy shape and size
quickly after birth.
If you are looking for something a bit stronger to prevent and get rid
of stretch marks you can look at Squalene
Oil.
It is a derivative from
olive oil and has very powerful skin regenerative qualities.
You can
find this in Revitol Anti Stretch Mark Cream, which is incredible at
preventing and getting rid of stretch marks.
Vitamin E is another important element in protecting and
healing the
skin of stretch marks.
Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant and an
important ingredient in the Revitol Anti Stretch Mark Cream because of
its ability to help skin regeneration.
Not all Vitamin E is the same. There are actually four different types
of Vitamin E. The best to use for stretch marks is alpha-tocopherol
because it has been shown in clinical trials to reduce the scarring of
stretch marks.
Vitamin E works its way out from deep within the skin repairing it
layer by layer and replacing it with new fresh skin cells.
