How to Remove Stretch Marks? (Naturally)

Some homemade techniques such as performing an exfoliation 3 times per week, as well as keeping the skin deeply hydrated with a special cream for stretch marks, can help eliminate those that have emerged recently.

The most recent stretch marks are red and usually appear after the skin is stretched too much, such as during pregnancy or when there is excess weight and then becomes thinner. The most affected places are usually the abdomen, back, thighs and buttocks.

Although there are excellent products that can be bought in pharmacies and stores of cosmetic products, it is also possible to prepare a good homemade mix with ingredients that can be easily obtained. Here’s how to prepare the recipes:

1. Homemade Stretch Mark Scrub

Important Recommendations

Red stretch marks are easier to remove than white stretch marks, but without proper treatment they do not disappear on their own. Therefore, once you have noticed that some stretch marks have arisen, you should start this home treatment while maintaining the following care:

• Perform the exfoliation 3 times per week;
• Apply moisturizer daily;
• Avoid the rebound effect constantly, the fact of gaining weight and losing weight several times favors the formation of new stretch marks;
• Drink plenty of water to help hydrate the skin;
• Avoid the use of bar soap, giving preference to liquids, as they hydrate the skin more;
• Avoid bathing with very hot water, as they dry the skin and can aggravate stretch marks.

By having this care it is possible to completely eliminate stretch marks. However, when they are very large, wide and appear in large quantities, it means that the skin has a lot of sagging and is very fragile, so a consultation with a dermatologist is recommended, because it may be necessary to perform other treatments as per example: galvanic current, microdermabrasion, laser or carboxytherapy.
