Here's
important news for anyone with diabetes.
A remarkable E-Book
is now available that reveals scientifically proven principles that can help
trigger your body to produce more insulin naturally, reversing diabetes
symptoms without the need for medication.
Diabetes
is a condition in which sugar
is not properly absorbed by the body. Globally the incidence of diabetes is
expected to exceed 250 million people by 2025 – resulting in 35 million heart attacks, 13 million strokes,
6 million episodes of renal failure, 8 million instances of blindness or eye
surgery, 2 million amputations and 62 million deaths – that is a measure of the
scale of the problem. While diabetes belongs at the top of the healthcare
agenda, it has yet to be given that position.
According to the American Diabetes Association, there are 21 million diabetics
in America; with another 54 million people having pre-diabetes (placing them at
high risk for developing Type II diabetes). This equates to 75 million
Americans having diabetes, or being at high risk.
With
attention focused on blood sugar and insulin levels, however, the underlying
cause of all the devastation has been overlooked. According to health advocate
and best-selling author Matt Traverso, many doctors are failing to treat the
real underlying cause of diabetes.
Instead,
they are treating the symptoms with chemicals and pharmaceutical medications
that often leave the sufferers with side effects and a long term dependency on
these drugs.
What
some doctors may be failing to understand is that diabetes is not a disease, it
is an outward reaction coming directly from the pancreas that results in the
body no longer being able to produce normal amounts of insulin due to the
pancreas being run down.
Matt Traverso's E-Book states, if the damage that is being done to the pancreas
can be turned around, the organ will be given the chance to heal itself and
then, gradually, it is possible for those who are dependent on insulin shots to
be able to stop them all together.
This
means diabetes sufferers may no longer have to be dependant on the drugs and
medications that are usually taken to treat the condition.
Top scientists such as Dr Robert O. Young, Dr Gabriel Cousens, Dr Fuhrman and
many others (whose ground-breaking research forms the basis of this E-book)
state that “diabetes is completely reversible”. This information sheds new
light on how diabetes sufferers get the condition and how they can turn their
illness around for good.
The
new finding on diabetes is being called "The Diabetes-Reversing
Breakthrough" all through the western world.
I
would like to extend the opportunity to anyone who either suffers from type 1
or type 2 diabetes, or is at high risk of getting the disease, to learn more
about “The Diabetes-Reversing Breakthrough!”
Scars are not bad things-
they are simply the body’s response to injury and to heal you-which is a good
thing. Some we wear like a badge of honor, while others we would rather hide.
From
a cosmetic standpoint, I try not to fret too much, but every now and again I
end up with something I’d just rather not have lingering around -and that’s
when I bust out the scar
butter.
This
is an extremely simple butter that works well to soften up the tough fibers of
the scar
tissue. It’s easy to make, lovely to use, and effective.
-1-2
tablespoons of beeswax
-2 tablespoons of avocado oil
-1 tablespoon tamanu oil
-2 tablespoons shea butter
-A small glass jar
Why Need Beeswax to
Treat Scar Tissue?
Beeswax
gives body to this butter and helps hold it together. It also has softening and
protective qualities that make it a valuable addition to many skin care
recipes.
Why Need Shea Butter
to Treat Scar Tissue?
Shea
butter (Butyrispermum parkii) makes an excellent moisturizer, and has the
benefit - among many others- of containing oleic acid, which enhances the
ability to penetrate skin. It is an occlusive emollient-which means it traps
water in the skin in addition to the softness and suppleness it brings.
It
is obtained by waiting years (typically around 15-20) for the Karite tree in
West Africa to bear good quality fruit for harvesting. The fruits from the nut
are picked, cracked, grilled, and then pounded or milled.
Afterwards
they are boiled in water to extract the shea butter, which is scooped out and
left to cool. Because the trees are so precious, make sure that you get high
quality raw shea from a sustainable source.
Why Need Avocado oil
to Treat Scar Tissue?
Avocado
oil (Persea gratissima) is a star here. It is extremely nourishing, but it’s
not magic, like many claim it to be. That said, it is pretty neat. Skin absorbs
avocado somewhat slowly.
That
means while it gets warmed to body temperature, there’s a bit of that oily
residue on the skin (this is fine, by the way, since it gives you a chance to
helpfully massage the butter into the scar a bit.) There are many claims out
there that avocado oil penetrates deeper into the skin, due to the way its
components are structured.
On
the flip side there is research that shows that it does appear in the upper
layers of the stratum corneum (the tougher outer layers of our skin) but not
any deeper than that.
If
that’s the case, it’s still definitely protective. It’s an occlusive, forming a
protective film and lowering the transepidermal water loss (basically the water
that passes from your inside to your outside via the skin, or simply, a loss of
moisture) so this is greatly beneficial for keeping the scar tissue
moisturized. Any way you spin it, I’ve found it to be an incredibly useful
addition to this butter.
Why Need Tamanu oil
to Treat Scar Tissue?
Tamanu
oil is extracted from the fruit of a tree found originally in Polynesia. It
consists of (roughly) 38% linoleic acid, 34% oleic acid, 13% stearic acid, and
12% palmitic acid. So basically all of our favorite fatty acids, which makes it
an extraordinary oil when it comes to healing skin, especially scarring.
It
is deeply penetrating (thanks oleic!) and moisturizing, and also acts as an
anti-inflammatory, which can help with any swelling up or irritation you may
have on or around the scar.
Directions
Set
up a double boiler and melt the beeswax. You can play around with the amount of
beeswax you like - more yields a firmer butter, while less results in a softer
one. Then add in the avocado oil and the tamanu oil. Finally, remove from the
heat and stir in the shea butter until it is melted.
Be
sure to add the shea butter last and after you have taken it off the heat as it
is more sensitive to heat than other carriers. Pour into your jar and allow it
to cool.
Keep
in a cool, dark place out of direct sunlight. Up to three times daily, work a
generous amount of the butter into the scar, massaging gently as you go, until
most of the butter is absorbed.
When can I use this
to treat scar tissue?
After
the scab has fallen off and the skin is completely sealed, use this as soon as
possible. The longer you wait the less effective any remedies for scars will
be.
Does the massaging work
to treat scar tissue?
Some
people claim it softens up the fibrous collagen, breaking it down and helping
the scar fade faster. Be sure to check with a professional before starting any
sort of massage regimen, and a wound may need longer to heal before the tissue
can handle it. When I say “massage” here I mean rub it thoroughly and firmly
but not too rough-you don’t need to dig into it.
This
post will discuss about how do scars
form, the different types of scar,
the 6 scar
treatment home remedies you can use to reduce scar
visibility and a video clip on how to get rid of scar
spot tissue on face and legs.
Scars form when there is
injury or trauma to the skin, especially when the dermis (the deeper layers of
the skin) are injured. Greatly simplified, the process of a scar
forming goes roughly like this.
Blood
rushes to the wound site and begins to clot. Fibroblasts, remarkable little
cells that help produce several different types of connective tissues and
proteins, begin to deposit the foundation for collagen.
Collagen is the main
structural protein found in our skin. However, the new collagen that is forming
scar
tissue is different from regular collagen, and tends to be inferior to ‘normal’
skin in its functioning. Still, it does the job-a pretty impressive one when
you think about it.
Scar tissue looks
different because the collagen that’s being laid down is made up of fibers that
lie parallel to each other, instead of the regular randomized cross woven
pattern that exists in undamaged skin. The scar
tissue is tough, not as elastic or supple, nor do things like sweat glands or
hair follicles re-grow in it.
Examples of Scar
Types
Below
are a few different types of scars that occur, summed up very simply, with some
being more severe than others. How you go about remedying your scars will be
easier if you know a bit about the scar itself!
Hypertrophic: Hypertrophic scars
are raised above the surrounding skin, due to the body overproducing collagen.
They typically present themselves as a red, raised, and thickened patches of
skin. They often form when there is mechanical tension on the wound. They can fade
over a period of two to three years.
Keloid: Very thick raised
scars, more severe than hypertrophic scars, and may spread beyond the original
wound site. They can also develop into benign masses. Keloid scarring, like
hypertrophic scars, are raised from excessive amounts of stiff collagen fibers
deposited on the wound.
Atrophic: The scar is sunken
in the skin, giving it a typical “pitted” appearance, caused when underlying
structures that support the skin are lost. Acne and diseases such as the chicken
pox tend to leave atrophic scars.
Scars vs.
Hyperpigmentation
Some
of these remedies apply to hyperpigmentation, which is when extra pigment is
deposited at the wound site. Hyperpigmentation is often seen in times after a
bad bout with acne, and can give the appearance of there being a mark or scar.
How Best to Reduce
Scar Visibility Naturally?
Different
treatments and remedies and their results vary hugely from individual to
individual, as it all depends on genetics, how you got the scar, how long
you’ve had it, etc. So don’t be afraid to play around with these to see what
works best!
Reduce Scar
Visibility Tip #1 – Marula Oil
Long,
long before it became mainstream, marula oil was used traditionally used by the
Tsonga people of South Africa and Mozambique, where it is still used by many
peoples in that region.
Marula
oil is used for skin care-as a cleansing or massage oil, as a moisturizer- and
even a dietary supplement. From food to medicine, the marula tree and the oil
from its fruits have a long history of being extensively used.
The
oil comes from harvested fruits that hold a nut, inside which rests a kernel.
The oil is extracted from this kernel, and a considerable amount of work goes
into the extraction process given the tough fibrous make-up of the nut. Once
removed, the kernel is cold-pressed by hand for the oil, resulting in a small
quantity the precious stuff.
The
oil is extremely light, silky, absorbs quickly into the skin, and penetrates
deeply. It has many uses, but in the case of scars it reduces redness and
inflammation, and softens up the tough tissue.
The
oleic acid enhances the ability of the oil to penetrate the skin, allowing
other fatty acids to soak in and do their work. Use it plain or as a base
oil-I’ll frequently add it to my scar butter.
You will
need…
-Marula Oil
Directions
Rinse
the scar and the area around it with warm water. Pat dry. Start with less oil
and add more as you need it-if I plan on rubbing it in some I use more, if I am
putting it on and letting it soak in on its own I use a little less. You don’t
need much, just enough to cover the scar well. Reapply up to three times daily
(or as needed.)
Reduce Scar
Visibility Tip #2 – Baobab Oil
This
precious oil, like Marula oil, is high in essential fatty acids. 33% of the
seed content is oil, with the majority of those oils being oleic and linoleic.Oleic and linoleic will soften skin-in this
case, the tough scar tissue-and moisturize the epidermis, where the visible
part of your scar sits.
All
of the fatty acids help regenerate outer epithelial tissues (basically, the
cells that make up the outside of your skin), which is part of why it is so
renowned for its abilities to heal our skin and reduce scars. It is thick and
rich and remains on the skin longer after application. Again, use it as a base
or a carrier or on its own!
You will
need…
-Baobab
Oil
Directions
Rinse
the area with warm water and pat dry. Apply a light coating of enough baobab
oil to cover the scar. Remember that it will sit on the skin for a while after
application.
Reduce Scar
Visibility Tip #3 – Fenugreek Paste
Fenugreek
was always one of those remedies that I just steered clear of. Not because of
any fault of its own-for some reason the name just always deterred me. But,
eventually, I was able to get over that quirk of mine, and now find it a useful
ingredient to have lying around.
Fenugreek
is used for a range of ailments, from easing indigestion to reducing dandruff. It can also help with skin
inflammation and irritation, such as that which may occur with a scar.
Anecdotal
evidence suggests that it also helps to lighten skin, thus reducing the
appearance of the scar or hyperpigmentation. In this case, making the seeds
into a paste is the most effective way of getting their benefit.
You will
need –
-Fenugreek
seeds
-Warm water
-Something to grind up the seeds
Directions
How
much fenugreek you’ll need depends entirely on the size of the scar. Start with
a tablespoon or two, and if there is extra store in the fridge for up to three
days.
Soak the seeds overnight in warm water, or until they are soft (even “slimy”)
feeling. Drain and mash them up into a paste-a mortar and pestle works best for
this.
If
the mash is too thick, you can add just a smidge of warm water at a time until
it is the proper consistency-thick but easily spreadable, not runny.
Rinse
the area with warm water and pat dry. Apply enough to cover the scar and leave
on for 30 minutes. Rinse off with warm water and pat dry.
I would suggest using your favorite lotion/moisturizer after this as it can be
drying.
Reduce Scar
Visibility Tip #4 – Fish Oil
Ah,
fish oil. It’s one of those “it’ll cure whatever ails ya” remedies. Rich in our
favorite fatty acids, fish oil taken in the diet and applied directly to scars
can help reduce their appearance.
Some
research has been done showing that they may even speed of the breakdown of
fibroblasts, which are responsible for laying down all that extra collagen,
even in scars as severe as keloids.
If
you can take it as a dietary supplement, I always say go for it. It’s worth
trying topically as well. Fibroblasts aside, it will moisturize the scar well
and moisturizing means a better environment for healing to take place.
You will
need…
-A
high quality fish oil
Directions
Apply
fish oil directly to the scar and/or take the appropriate dosage for a dietary
supplement.
Reduce Scar
Visibility Tip #5 – Lemon Juice
This
one should come as no surprise. Lemon juice, in addition to having other
benefits, is known to lighten skin. This is because it is thought to interrupt
melanogenesis-basically the process in which melanin, the pigment that darkens
skin, is formed.
It
is also thought to reduce or break down the existing melanin in the skin as
well. Be careful after applying lemon juice as it can make you a bit more
sensitive to the sun for a bit after using it.
You will
need…
-1
fresh lemon
Directions
Juice
the lemon. Rinse the affected area and then apply directly. Do this up to twice
a day as needed and be patient, as it isn’t instantaneous. Keep the leftover
juice in the fridge for later use.
Reduce Scar
Visibility Tip #6 – Sunscreen or Cover Up
This
is more of a (very helpful) preventative rather than a remedy. When the sun- chiefly
its ultraviolet rays-hits your skin, it damages it. Your body, well-equipped as
always, rushes to defend and protect your sensitive skin by depositing melanin,
a darker pigment that will give more protection against the harmful rays.
The
skin of your scar is sensitive and will darken easily, so cover up or use
sunscreen, and you can help prevent any burns or unwanted melanin making it
more visible. Tanning or getting sunburned will ultimately *not* help your
cause!
You will
need…
-Sunscreen
that is at least SPF 30
Directions
Apply
sunscreen to the scar before exposing it to sunlight or keep it covered.
And
above all else…
Be
patient. There is no current natural remedy or medical technology that can
guarantee the complete removal of a scar. Although some may certainly helpful,
our bodies are pretty incredible of doing the job.
Trust
in your body - it knows what it’s doing! When it comes to badly damaged or
non-regenerable tissues, they are replaced by the laying down of connective
tissue (think collagen!) This is a process called replacement-also known as scarring.
Regeneration
is a type of healing in which new growth can completely bring back at least
portions of damaged tissue to its normal state. Most of the time these two
occur in tandem during the healing process.
Over
the course of 2 sometimes up to 3 years the scar will continue to heal,
replacing and regenerating. So don’t panic about a scar. Get a little help from
some good remedies, trust your body and time, be patient, and all will heal.
Stretch marks,
or striae, are a form of skin scarring that are usually related to being
pregnant, weight problems, puberty, and short-time period weight benefit from
bodybuilding and other physical activities.
They
form when the dermis – the middle layer of the skin that keeps shape and
elasticity – is stretched beyond its tolerance level. Connective fibers in the
skin finally break down, disrupting the production of collagen
and causing scarring. This scarring can be treatable most effectively through stretch mark elimination.
The
most vulnerable group is pregnant women. Almost three in 4 women will get
stretch marks after being pregnant.
Expecting
mums typically suffer from stomach stretch marks, but other regions will also
be affected, resulting within the want for mommy makeover surgery.
Other
vulnerable groups of people are those who have lost massive weight and
bodybuilders who've quickly developed sizable muscles.
Both
men and women can have stretch marks, which mainly can be seen at the thighs,
hips, hands, buttocks, abdominal region, and decrease back.
Other
causes of stretch marks include:
Genetics: women are much more
likely to get belly stretch marks if their mother, for example, had stretch
marks after being pregnant.
Huge weight gains and
losses:
your skin stretches as your weight fluctuates, every now and then ensuing in
stretch marks.
Puberty: growth spurts at
some stage in puberty usually resulting in stretch marks on the skin because
the skin is unable to cope with the body’s speed of growth.
Bodybuilding: quick development of
muscular tissues may also stretch the skin way past its limits.
Corticosteroids: heavy or long term usage
of oral or topical corticosteroids, a broadly used pharmaceutical steroid
compound, can cause stretch mark formation.
Ethnicity: human beings with
darker skin don’t usually have stretch marks.
Why do Women Have Stretch
marks after pregnancy?
Stretch
marks after being pregnant are quite often seen. Almost three in 4 expecting
mums will have stretch marks on their legs, abdomen, hips, and different areas
of the body affected by weight gain at some stage in pregnancy.
For
the duration of pregnancy, the skin expands and stretches to its limitations,
causing tiny tears within the layers of skin. These tiny tears are stretch
marks that seem as smooth, white streaks in the pores and skin.
Many
ladies who have stretch marks after pregnancy seek for laser stretch mark
elimination to eliminate this undesirable scarring. This treatment aims to help
women to regain the youthful appearance they desire.
Which areas of the
body that are likely to have stretch marks?
Stretch
marks can affect any part of the body where the skin is subjected to rapid
stretching. The abdomen is the most likely area to be affected by stretch
marks, however they are also as likely to appear across the thighs, hips,
buttocks, lower again, fingers, and chest.
Skin
in these areas is being subjected to high level of stress due to heavy use and
fast expansion. Any part of the body is equally likely to be susceptible to
stretch marks if the skin is stretched beyond a tolerance level because of tissue
expansion.
What do you need to
take note if you have stretch marks?
Patients
should have realistic expectations about the outcomes from their chosen stretch
mark treatment.
Patients
that go through stretch mark elimination surgical procedure ought to be healthy.
Patients
undergoing surgical procedure will need to discuss their medical history and the
medications they are currently taking, with their surgeons prior to surgery.
Sufferers must also be aware of the cost of their stretch mark treatment.
Removing Stretch
Marks Naturally
Natural
stretch mark removal includes creams, lotions, and tips for diet and exercise.
There are various products that can be found in the marketplace for natural
stretch mark removal.
But,
these products don’t work for many people, particularly for those who have
stretch marks that are old and well-developed. In these cases, probably the
only effective option is more involved medical treatment.
How Effective Is
Natural Stretch Mark Removal?
It's
quite difficult to accurately gauge the effectiveness of natural stretch mark
removal techniques. A wide range of products claim of being able to get rid of
or reduce the appearance of stretch marks, however little or no real statistics
is available to support these claims.
Generally,
these natural stretch mark removal products work best for treating fresh
stretch marks and merely helping to fade stretch marks faster.
Benefits of Removing
Stretch Marks Naturally
Herbal
stretch mark elimination products, together with striae stretch mark
elimination cream, are generally much less high-priced than those which involve
cosmetic dermatology methods.
The
products used are easy to buy both online and from skin care retailers. Because
they're non-surgical, there is no need to visit a clinic or spa, and the more
reputable brands are usually very safe.
Dangers of Removing
Stretch Marks Naturally
There
are various potential dangers associated with natural stretch mark removal.
Because of the wide range of topical products that declare to heal stretch
marks, every product is subjected to little regulatory oversight.
This
means that a number of the less legit stress mark treatment products are
largely or definitely useless. Worse still, it's far viable that some of them
may contain substances that truly pose a health risk to users.
Additionally,
the cost of using a variety of ineffective natural alternatives can be quite
close to the cost of a single dependable professional treatment.
Laser stretch mark
elimination
A
laser stretch mark removal process involves using a beam of light to remove thin
layers of skin around the stretch marks. The excimer laser is uniquely
effective for this procedure.
Instead
of the traditional laser treatment which involves cutting or burning the
affected skin areas, the excimer laser makes use of high-strength ultraviolet
laser light to disrupt the molecular bonds inside the skin tissue, which causes
the skin tissue to fall apart in a process called ablation.
After
completion of laser stretch mark treatment, the treated area will heal very
fast, and new layers of healthful skin will appear. The stretch marks will
disappear, and a renewed, healthful look will result.
Recuperation after
Laser Stretch Mark Treatment
After
the laser stretch mark removal treatment, the affected location might be red
and tender. This is because layers of scarred skin had been removed and new
skin is being grown.
From
time to time, blistering and different signs and symptoms that resemble an
ordinary burn injury can be present, however these are transient.
Most
people will heal within a few days, but there are some cases when healing can
be as long as a few weeks and these are mainly those that require a more
extensive therapy.
How Effective is
Laser Stretch Mark Treatment?
In
most cases, laser stretch mark elimination is quite effective. As with any
other approach, the effectiveness of the treatment is very dependent on the
prevalence and age of the stretch marks in each case - older and more serious
stretch marks are extra difficult to deal with.
Patients
often need as many as 10 treatment sessions to completely get rid of stretch
marks. In some very severe instances, even a series of laser treatments may just
simply reduce the visibility of stretch marks and not able to remove stretch
marks completely. Every case is not the same.
Advantages of Laser
Stretch Mark Treatment
Laser
stretch mark treatment is highly effective and enjoys a high rate of patient
satisfaction. It's also extremely secure; The excimer laser is quite safe and
is precisely controlled exactly controlled, which lower the risk of injury.
Laser
stretch mark treatment is less invasive than surgical body sculpting procedures
including tummy tucks, with shorter recovery time, lower fee, and fewer complications.
Risks of Laser
Stretch Mark Treatment
As
with every medical procedure, laser stretch mark elimination isn't completely risk-free.
Due to the fact the laser has the ability to ablate the skin, there is a risk
that a mishandled laser could cause some superficial damage to the skin.
Because of this, you should carefully choose your cosmetic dermatologist.
There
are always the dangers that significantly entrenched stretch marks may not be
completely removed with laser treatment. Other risks involve blistering and negative
reactions to the treatment, however these complications are transient and not
threatening to life.
Surgical
stretch mark removal is the most effective alternative for the entire and
everlasting elimination of stretch marks. Different treatments, such as laser
stretch mark removal and natural stretch mark removal treatments, can fade
stretch marks and lessen their prominence but cannot totally eliminate them.
Whilst
posing little health risk, stretch marks continue to cause anxiety and insecurity
to many people. If patients want to totally get rid of stretch marks as opposed
to just camouflaging them, then surgical stretch mark treatment remains the
simplest feasible method.
Areas of the body
that can be treated by Surgical Stretch Mark Removal
Abdominoplasty,
more usually called a "tummy tuck," is currently the best effective
surgery for stretch mark elimination. The tummy tuck tightens abdominal
muscular tissues and eliminates extra skin in the mid to lower belly region.
All
stretch marks underneath the naval are remove together with the extra skin.
Presently, there aren't any surgical treatment for stretch mark elimination on
other areas of the body.
Due
to this drawback, surgical stretch mark removal is only done on patients that
qualify for the stomach tuck system. Those who are eligible for tummy tuck
surgical treatment includes sufferers that are in proper health that don't
smoke and have excess skin at the belly.
Cost for Surgical
Stretch Mark Treatment
The
price of surgical stretch mark removal varies widely depending on the technique
that are being used and the severity of the scars in question.
Natural
techniques such as lotions and lotions are normally the cheapest and least
involved, however also the least powerful.
Surgical
treatment for stretch marks usually is very expensive and can be as costly as
repeated laser stretch mark treatment. You should seek advice from your
cosmetic dermatology specialist in order to make an informed decision.
Other stretch mark
removal remedies
Cosmetic
dermatologists offer a wide range of non-surgical options for treating stretch
marks. Popular and effective options consist of chemical peels,
microdermabrasion, and blue light therapy. Those are top options for patients
who want to avoid surgical treatment, and they're usually less pricey than
laser stretch mark removal.
Like
any non-surgical stretch mark remedies, those alternatives work best on more
recent scars. For people who have stretch marks that are quite old, they may need
the usage of surgical techniques for total removal.
Chemical peels
Chemical
peels are normally used at the face to treat wrinkles and age spots, but they
may be used on other areas of the body for stretch mark removal.
When
using chemical peel, a chemical solution is applied on the skin using a sponge,
cotton pad, cotton swab, or brush. The types and strengths of the chemical in
the solution is very dependent on the patient’s needs.
The
chemicals essentially peel off the top layers of dead damaged skin in order to
promote new skin production. Sufferers may experience a stinging or burning
sensation during treatment.
The
skin restoration period will be very dependent on the patient’s skin type and
the power of the chemical substances administered, and the number of treatments
that may be necessary in order to get the most beneficial results.
You
must be aware that a chemical peel does not eliminate stretch marks absolutely;
but, they can help to fade the appearance of stretch marks, and patients will emerge
with smoother, healthier, more youthful looking skin.
Microdermabrasion
Both
microdermabrasion and chemical peels help to fade the appearance of stretch
marks through removing the skin’s top layers. Chemical peels reap this purpose
by way of the usage of chemicals to “burn” the top layer of the skin. Microdermabrasion
uses a fine crystal spray to “blast” the outermost layers of skin.
Dead
skin cells are eliminated and will be replaced by new, healthy skin cells. These
new skin cells will produce more collagen and elastin, two crucial components
of smooth, younger looking skin.
Microdermabrasion
is a painless technique that can be done under less than an hour and involves
little recovery time. An additional five to twelve treatment sessions are required
in order to reap the most benefit from this treatment.
Again,
you must be aware that, despite the ability of microdermabrasion in helping to
improve the appearance of scars, it isn't always an effective method for complete
stretch mark removal.
Blue mild therapy
Even
though blue mild therapy is widely used for acne treatment, it can sometimes be
used to enhance the appearance of stretch marks.
Blue
light therapy requires applying a photosensitive gel to the skin, and then
exposed the gel to bursts of light energy.
While
complete stretch mark removal is not possible, patients may see some
improvement in the appearance of stretch marks, especially those most recent
ones.
Consult a stretch

This
post will talk about everything you need to know in trying to look for ways to
remove stretch marks. The most expensive ways to remove stretch marks is not necessarily the most effective. Some methods to remove
stretch marks will work better than others, depending on individuals.
Stretch marks
— they’re just not only related to pregnancies. In case you or a someone has
gained weight, then you definitely have likely seen them develop first-hand.
Stretch marks
can come as a result of packing on extra fats, or even losing it quick. As a
result, your skin simply breaks down and stretches, leaving streaky scars that
can be red, purple or white in color.
They’re
unsightly, annoying, and alas, hard to cope with.
One
thing about stretch marks is that they sneak up on you. You don’t clearly see them
happening — within the equal manner that you don’t see yourself turning into
obese.
But
after a period of time and due to not paying attention, you can see stretch marks appearing on your skin. This can be due to you can’t kick
your sugar habit, or simply don’t exercise enough. Due to the lack of care for
your body, stretch marks appear.
And
stretch marks are just one of these visible results from the lack of care
for your body. Most likely, if you’re seeing stretch marks, you’re experiencing a host of other problems due to weight
gain or loss.
So,
you need to make an effort in controlling the bad habits first before you
bother about the cosmetic issues related to stretch marks.
But
if you’re ready to tackle those stretch marks and attempt to repair your body
to its former glory, the question is that this: what precisely are you able to
do to remove stretch marks?
Trying
to remove stretch marks isn’t as easy as you might have hoped. In truth,
there’s no assure which you’ll ever be able to completely remove stretch marks.

notoriously hard to conceal or make disappear.

the surgical method to remove stretch marks — going under the knife is one of
the greater popular remedy options nowadays, and it’s becoming even easier to
do now that we are able to use lasers.

example to show how ubiquitous this treatment has come to be.
But
surgical treatments are expensive, and there are many issues that each you and
surgical experts need to address first you could even get the go-ahead. Even
then, there’s no guarantee that this will work to remove stretch marks
absolutely.
There

typically take the shape of topical creams, which can be apply directly on the
skin, like creams or moisturizers.

Whichever
methods you choose to remove stretch marks; you'll be better off with coming to
accept the reality that those marks are possibly with you for life.
If
you can accept that reality, and even wear them as a kind of badge of honor

obesity?) you’ll be a good deal happier in the long run. For most people,
stretch marks are never going to go away, or be fully indistinguishable.
Some
remedies to remove stretch marks will work better than others, depending on
individuals.
Again,
you need to realize that even if you spend a lot of money to look for ways to
completely remove stretch marks — there’s still a possibility that you may not
get the result you hope for.
