Red stretch marks: what to do?
Stretch marks generally appear in the event of significant hormonal changes, and significant weight gain or loss. They can therefore appear during adolescence or during pregnancy. The pregnant woman combines all the factors favoring the appearance of stretch marks : weight gain over a short period of time, skin that stretches as much as possible, and crazy hormones – cortisol in the lead – which reduce the natural production of collagen and elastin, both responsible for the suppleness of the skin.
Despite all your good will to prevent the appearance of stretch marks, it may be that the fibers of your skin, lacking elasticity, crack. It is common for stretch marks to invade the skin on the thighs, hips, stomach or even breasts.
Their red/purple tint does not make them particularly discreet, much to the chagrin of pregnant women! The red stretch mark reflects recent inflammation of the dermis. To optimize your chances of reducing the visibility of these brands, remember that the sooner you act, the easier it will be to dislodge them.
After a few weeks or months, they will lose this bright color and become pearly white. So why treat them now, and not let them turn white naturally?
Only dermatological treatments, such as laser, can be considered at this stage, and, it is good to know, the results are not always convincing on all skin types.
This is a good reason to tackle red stretch marks before and after childbirth, by adopting a targeted beauty routine for future and new mothers.
