The Effects of Stretch Marks
Though stretch marks themselves do not cause harm to health or the body’s function they may in some cases be quite obvious and affect your self-esteem or can undermine confidence. Because of this, attempts at avoiding stretch marks are commonplace especially in trying to avoid stretch marks during pregnancy when you are most aware of the potential for stretch marks to appear.
Can Stretch Marks Go Away?
Some people think there’s nothing that can be done about stretch marks. ‘Once you’ve got them, there here to stay’ but that turns out not to be true.
Stretch marks can appear all over the body – on arms, legs, thighs, hips, chests, breasts, tummys, etc. – and can be a problem to men, women or children. While you can consider cosmetic surgery or laser surgery to remove stretch marks, this can be both an uncomfortable and expensive treatment. Most people would like to use natural ways to remove stretch marks.
