What causes stretch marks?

The treatment of stretch marks can be frustrating for patients but by having realistic expectations we can obtain a satisfactory result. Stretch marks originate from skin’s elastic fibres tear, usually due to extreme tension. Rapid changes in weight, pregnancy, muscle gain and growth spurts are some factors that lead to the appearance of stretch marks. Maybe  genetics play a role.

What is the best treatment for stretch marks?

Treatment of stretch marks with creams and natural products are not proven effectives. Dermatologists and aesthetic doctors cannot promise that stretch marks will disappear forever.  The goal is to obtain an improvement.

There are various options and combinations of treatments. The Doctors will determine which will suit you best.
