Stretch marks

'''Solution for Stretch Marks ''' Currently there is no way to actually repair damaged skin fibers, so one alternative to get rid of Stretch marks is to remove them. This requires cosmetic

surgery. There is no known remedy to repair these fibers, though there are many products and treatments available that can help lighten stretch marks and

improve the look of the skin. During surgery, the skin is cut away; though in some instances, doctors cannot remove all of the damage. Stretch marks are deep scars, or scar tissue, that

appears as stripes on the skin. Different types of creams and lotions promise to improve the texture of the skin and make stretch marks less noticeable. Many

will provide some relief, but certain preparations are meant for use only on newer scars. Extreme stretching of the skin causes tiny skin fibers to tear. An

added benefit of cosmetic surgery is the ability to pull the remaining skin taut. These methods cannot actually repair torn fibers in the skin, but they are reported to dramatically improve the appearance of stretch marks for many people. Depending on the severity and location of the scar tissue, exfoliation may be helpful. You can use oatmeal or baking soda to make your own preparations, or

choose from the many scented, specially prepared formulas available. Removing layers of dead skin and unveiling soft, fresh skin can help minimize the

appearance of stretch marks. Be sure to apply plenty of moisturizer to keep the skin soft and hydrated after exfoliation.
