WHAT THEY DO NOT TELL YOU ABOUT THE STRETCH MARKS

The stretch marks are not primarily due to a weight problem. As proof, some thin women also have stretch marks . You should know that stretch marks appear at certain times of life and they are curable at the very beginning of their training. Explanations of Dr. Catherine Goursac , aesthetic doctor.

At what stage of life appear stretch marks?

Dr. Catherine Goursac: It's not just being overweight and pregnancy that are causing stretch marks !
Nearly 95% of women experience stretch marks during puberty. They are usually well hidden in the buttocks, but also on the thighs (inner and outer) or hips. In people who really, the stretch marks may also appear on the breasts, the inner arms and shins.

This is not because people tend to exaggerate or conversely to lose weight at the time of puberty that stretch marks occur during this period. It is the hormonal flood of puberty which causes the formation of stretch marks . And that is why skinny women can have stretch marks , while women are less round, though of course, weight changes play a facilitating role.

Applied twice daily directly to the skin, vitamin A acid causes irritation which strongly stimulates the dermis, which will then act against those scars in training.

This curative treatment is therefore aimed at very young girls of 12-14 years at the time of puberty. After this stage, when the stretch mark is mature and white, this treatment is more effective, it's too late.
Note that vitamin A acid is cons-indicated during pregnancy . There is no curative treatment for pregnant women. The only thing you can do during pregnancy is to manually stimulate areas at risk of stretch marks : the lower abdomen around the navel, hips, breasts. Simply make small pinch backgammon: you grab the skin with three fingers and you the twist slightly.
