How to Cure stretch marks?
Question: I’m 15 I have not had a baby and I’m really firm, but the thing is I grew up quick and so I have stretch marks on my breasts and my thighs and my butt. Is there anything that I can use to get rid of them?
Answer: Stretch marks are a normal part of puberty for most girls and guys. When a person growns quickly or gain weight very quickly (like during puberty), that person may get fine lines on the body called stretch marks. Stretch marks occur when the tissue under the skin is pulled by rapid growth or stretching.
Although the skin is usually fairly elastic, when it is overstretched, the normal production of collagen (the main protein that makes up the connective tissue of the skin) is disrupted. As a result, scars called stretch marks may form.
If you notice stretch marks on your body, you’re not alone. Most girls and women have stretch marks, which tend to show on the breasts, thighs, hips and buttocks. Many women get them during pregnancy. While they are more common in girls, men can get stretch marks, too. Bodybuilders are prone to stretch marks because of rapid body changes that bodybuilding can produce.
Fortunately, stretch marks often turn lighter and almost disappear over time. But the fact that stretch marks usually fade and become less visible over time may be small consolation if you plan to spend most of your Summer in a swimsuit.
Here are some points to consider if you want to make stretch marks less noticeable:
Some people find that sunless tanning treatments can help hide stretch marks. This does not work for regular tanning or tanning beds, but because stretch marks themselves are less likely to tan.
You can also buy body makeup the same tone of your skin that can make stretch marks all but invisible. Although some manufacturers make these products camouflage waterproof, makeup can not be the best solution if you spend much time in water.
Speaking of pool or beach time, the good news is that current fashion favors many styles of bathing suits that also just happen to hide stretch marks. “Boy short” style suits (popular with many athletes because they do not rise up when a person moves) work well for hiding stretch marks on the buttocks and upper thighs. And because many swimmers prefer neck swimsuits high, which can hide stretch marks in the chest area, there are usually many styles to choose from.
