Whether you're avoiding stretch marks or trying to treat them, those pesky tiger stripes sure can be a pain. Here's a clinically proven solution you can try...
We hate to admit it, but as proud as we are of our tiger stripes (AKA stretch marks), they’re not exactly pretty. Not to mention, really itchy! So if we could avoid or treat them – all the better, right? Here’s the thing: most pregnant women – no matter how good their genes may develop stretch marks at some point in their pregnancies. So if you’re one of them, you’ll be assured to know that you’re so, so not alone in this. Here’s what you can do about them…
What are stretch marks?
Stretch marks are a type of thin, flattened scar thought to be due to an abnormal change in the underlying tissue of the skin. Stretch marks appear slightly raised and pink to red in colour during the early stages. Depending on your skin type, they could turn purplish or fade to white.
Can you actually get rid of stretch marks?
Maybe not, but you can most certainly prevent and treat them. The best solution? Using a treatment that’s been clinically proven to prevent and treat all kinds of stretch marks. Unlike your typical cosmetic and moisturising products to prevent and treat stretch marks, Stratamark is a medical grade gel with therapeutic action. It’s known to soften and flatten stretch marks, reduce redness an discolouration associated with stretch marks, and even relieve the itching and discomfort of stretch marks.
Worried about using too much product on your skin? No worries. Stratamark uses less product per application than your typical moisturising or cosmetic creams. And, you only have to use it once a day. Plus, clinical trials have shown Stratamark to be effective in treating stretch marks, regardless of age and severity.
Safe for pregnant and breastfeeding mums!
It’s understandable that most mums would be hesitant to put just about any product on their skin. And that’s what we love about Stratamark – because of its silicone gel properties, it isn’t absorbed into the skin, making it suitable even for kids with sensitive skin!
Bottom line: if you’re looking to treat and prevent stretch marks, perhaps its best to consider a treatment that’s been clinically proven to work. We definitely will be!
