Possible Treatments For White Stretch Marks

White stretch marks and stretch marks of all other colors share one major cause, and that is the excessive stretching of the skin. When the skin is distended so much, the skin collagen, or fiber beneath the skin, is damaged. This can be difficult to fix, but treatments today make successful repair possible.

The problem start off as red or purplish lines when the skin is stretching at a very fast rate. They then start to turn into a whitish scar as the skin tries to heal itself. The healing process in this case is abnormal, thus the unnatural and noticeable looks. It is important to know that white stretch marks are generally more challenging to treat.

A typical cause of the problem is fast weight gain. Major causes of rapid weight gain is pregnancy and bodybuilding. When bodybuilding, you should try to build muscle mass gradually. This will prevent the streaks from forming in the first place. Of course, you can't do the same thing with pregnancy, and so treatment should start early in this case.

All creams are designed to help prevent the problem and reduce their appearance. Creams are particularly effective on early marks. However, you should try using all-natural creams to treat older or white stretch marks. All-natural creams are considered more effective because the ingredients are potent and easily absorbed by the body. Also worth mentioning is they do not cause side effects. While they cannot completely eliminate those lines that have become white or silvery in color, they can reduce their appearance.
