Stretch marks on the thighs: where do they come from?
Stretch marks appear when the epidermis, subjected to too much tension, has reached its maximum stretching capacity. No longer flexible enough to continue stretching, the fibers literally crack, and red stretch marks, similar to scars, appear. Over time, they will fade to their final color, a pearly white shade. More discreet therefore, but also more difficult to dislodge : your field of action is wider on purplish stretch marks, the most recent, which reflect inflammation of the dermis!
The simplest thing is to avoid their appearance, which is why limit your weight gain and opt for a healthy and varied diet, rich in vitamin A, omega 3 and 6, and sufficient fluid intake (at least 1, 5L of water per day) is the first beauty step to keep these purplish streaks away!
Stretch marks on the thighs: what solutions to make them disappear?
Note that it is almost impossible to completely eliminate stretch marks, but there are some solutions to limit them and protect yourself as much as possible.
Eating healthy is good, but the appearance of stretch marks also affects your bathroom! Adopting an anti-stretch mark treatment (cream or oil) from the start of your pregnancy and applying it once or twice a day in the first trimester, then morning and evening from the second trimester is an essential step to soften your skin and preserve its elasticity . Remember to massage forgotten areas, such as the thighs , hips , lower back , buttocks , which also undergo strong stretching during pregnancy!
If red stretch marks have appeared, do not relax your efforts, and continue the massages with your anti-stretch mark treatments, to prevent the phenomenon from getting worse. Red stretch marks are the easiest stretch marks to treat, because when they are colored and blistered, it is possible to reduce them: with appropriate care, their size will decrease significantly.
We have designed three perfect treatments for this:
- Lait Fondant contains a powerful anti-stretch mark active ingredient, Dermochlorella. This is a champion micro-algae for promoting skin elasticity that may be lacking during pregnancy! Combined with a complex of five vegetable oils recognized for their softening and regenerating properties (sweet almond, avocado, macadamia, olive and muscat rose oil), it prevents the appearance of new streaks on the body and corrects the appearance of existing stretch marks.
- Same ingredients, same properties for Huile Sensorielle, ideal for deep massages of the thighs, with broad, circular movements, to stimulate the suppleness of the skin!

Our advice ? Apply the Lait Fondant in the morning (it absorbs quickly, to allow you to get dressed straight away) and the Huile Sensorielle in the evening when you have a little more time to massage yourself well! These two products are available in the Morning and Evening Stretch Mark Ritual set, or alongside other products in unique gift sets that will please all mothers-to-be.
- Last treatment ideal for treating stretch marks, and not the least: our Baume Onctueux, perfect for preserving the beauty of the skin during and after pregnancy! It is a great ally for future and young mothers, because this 3-in-1 treatment fights cellulite, firms distended skin and visibly reduces the appearance of red stretch marks. Our five beneficial vegetable oils are combined this time with a extremely effective active ingredient, Body3Complex, composed of avocado kernel, clay and shea butter to improve cell regeneration and blur small skin defects.

- You can integrate these three products into your beauty routine with complete peace of mind: all Daylily face and body treatments have been formulated using natural ingredients , without any danger for daily use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
For optimal results, expectant mothers are recommended to massage themselves every day, morning and evening. Once baby has arrived, continue the application with a post-delivery treatment (like our Creamy Balm, which can be used both during or after pregnancy): in fact, the hormones of pregnancy, even if they gradually decrease , continue to act on the elasticity of the skin. So, although the skin seems loose and supple after the baby arrives, it can actually still become inflamed and crack again.
Also remember, once a week, to perform a gentle exfoliation in your shower. An ideal gesture to rid your skin of impurities while promoting the penetration and effectiveness of our anti-stretch mark treatments. To avoid sensitizing your skin (nor the health of your future baby), do not hesitate to prepare a homemade scrub. To do this, trust the virtues of vegetable oils : Sweet Almond, Olive, Calendula… All you need to do is mix a few spoons with honey and coarse sea salt or brown sugar . Be careful though, this mixture should only be applied to areas prone to stretch marks on the lower body (thighs, buttocks, knees, heels), as coarse salt is too abrasive for application on the stomach. Otherwise, we have created the ideal accessory for a gentle but effective exfoliation: Le Gant Sublimateur. It has two sides with different intensities, gentle for sensitive areas, and intense for the rest of the body. It will provide better effectiveness to your anti-stretch mark and anti-cellulite treatments. It is used with our Les Bulles Lavantes shower jelly!

Stretch marks on the thighs: how to remove them permanently?
Have your stretch marks on your thighs turned white ? Unfortunately, they are now well established and it will become more complicated to dislodge them. Continue the massages with an anti-stretch mark oil: they can only help to improve the quality of your skin. If these pregnancy scars complicate you to the point of wanting to remove them completely, you will have to turn to heavier and more restrictive techniques, carried out by dermatologists or cosmetic surgeons. The solutions most suited to young mothers are, among others:
- pulsed dye lasers, which reduce inflammation and stimulate the production of elastin and collagen, responsible for skin suppleness
- the fractionated non-ablative laser that heats stretch marks to force the skin to produce collagen and regenerate itself.
- Radio-frequency treatment which reduces the width and depth of stretch marks.
Several sessions are generally necessary to overcome it. Some treatments are not compatible with breastfeeding and should not be carried out before summer - ask your healthcare professional for advice!
You will have understood, the best tip – and the simplest! - to erase the streaks on the thighs is to take care of your skin by offering anti-stretch mark massages with targeted treatments, with active ingredients specially selected for future mothers. You will find skin without marks, supple and perfectly hydrated!
