Stretch Marks

Also known as “striae” by your dermatologist. This condition is caused by an rapid change in skin, whether it stretches or shrinks quickly. This change causes a rupture in the collagen and elastin, which serves to support our skin’s structure. The result is the appearance of stretch marks.

Scenarios:

  • Athletes and weight training- where rapid muscle growth is observed
  • Rapid weight gain or rapid weigh loss
  • Growth spurts

Helpful Hacks by Dr. Hacker

  • Massage Elastin & Collagen Cream directly into your stretch marks.
  • Be patient, if this works , it will take 3 months to see a change.

Why Elastin & Collagen Cream

ELASTIN & COLLAGEN CREAM contains hydrolyzed collagen and hydrolyzed elastin.

The second layer of the skin is called the dermis and consists of two fibers: collagen, which gives the skin its strength, and elastin, which provides skin with its elasticity. The elastic fiber network gets stretched as a consequence of underlying tissue expansion , such as muscle building, weight lifting, exercising or weight gain. Elastic fibers give skin its elasticity, or the ability to “snap back,” after stretching. The skin tries to repair the tired elastic network but it does not appear to be effective, which in turn promotes the lax, loose skin seen in stretch marks. A stretch mark is formed.

According to the American Academy of Dermatology, in a few large studies, hyaluronic acid was shown to have made stretch marks less noticeable.
