5 Natural Remedies For Stretch Marks by Nobody: 12:12pm On Jan 25, 2016 |
Stretch marks have become the challenge of so many people today, but most especially women. So many women have become irritative to their men. What are stretch marks? Stretch marks are the long, stripes, narrow streaks or lines that develops on the skin and which differ in hue from the surrounding skin. They are the result of a sudden stretching of the skin and are extremely common in women. Anyone can develop stretch marks, although they tend to affect more women than men. Stretch marks can be visible on body parts including the tummy, thighs, hips, breasts, upper arms, and lower back. The marks form in the middle layer of the skin; when there is a constant stretch, the layer tears, leaving stretch marks. Stretch marks are usually a slightly red or purple shade to begin with, fading with time to silvery white lines that may or may not disappear. Occurring in 40-90% of women, stretch marks appear following rapid repeated over-stretching of the skin over weak connective tissue. The most common areas affected are as follows: Abdomen Breasts Hips Flank Buttocks Thighs What causes stretch marks? I want you to understand that the skin consists of three main layers and they are: 1. Epidermis (the outer layer) 2. Dermis (the middle layer) 3. Subcutaneous or hypodermis (the deepest layer). Stretch marks form in the dermis when the connective tissue is "stretched" beyond the limits of its elasticity due to rapid expansion or contraction of the skin from sudden growth or weight gain. Stretch marks eventually fade to a silvery, white or glossy appearance due to the blood vessels contracting and the pale fat underneath the skin becoming visible instead. Natural remedies for stretch marks 1. Salt, Sugar and Palm Oil Paste Ingredients needed: 250 grams of salt 250 grams of sugar 150 ml of palm oil Method of preparation: In order to get a thick paste, same as store-bought gel, mix all ingredients together. Allow the resulting mixture to stand still for half an hour before you mix well again. After that your peeling is ready to use! How to use: Massage the problematic parts of the skin by doing circular motions, lasting for 2-3 minutes. Use the peeling every night before showering. After using the peeling, after taking a shower, apply a little moisturizing cream or body lotion. After a month of regular use you will notice as the stretch marks and cellulite both become less visible. Do not quit the treatment after the first positive results. Be persistent. 2. Potato Juice Potato juice contains vitamins and minerals that foster growth and restoration of skin cells. Cut a medium-sized potato into thick slices. Take one of the potato pieces and rub it gently on the stretch marks for a few minutes. Make sure the starch from the potato covers the affected area. Allow the potato juice to dry for some time and then wash it off with lukewarm water. Read fully @ http://nutrivalve.com/5-natural-remedies-for-stretch-marks/ |
