Improving The Appearance Of Stretch Marks

 

Bio-Oil is highly effective in helping to improve the appearance of existing stretch marks. Bio-Oil helps to increase the elasticity of the skin, thereby the possibility of new stretch marks forming is reduced.
 
Application
Bio-Oil should be massaged in a circular motion into the stretch marks and surrounding skin, twice daily, for a minimum of 3 months.
 
What is a stretch mark and how is it formed?
Stretch marks, otherwise known as striae, are caused by exactly what their name suggests – stretching of the skin.

By expanding and contracting, the skin’s connective tissue allows it to adapt to continuous movement of the body; but sometimes the skin has insufficient time to adjust. When the body expands faster than the covering skin, the skin tears and forms an internal wound; this then forms a scar as it heals. These scars are visible on the surface of the skin as stretch marks.

The likelihood of developing stretch marks varies according to skin type, race, age, diet and hydration of the skin.

Those most prone to stretch marks include pregnant women, body builders, adolescents undergoing sudden growth spurts, and individuals that experience rapid weight gain.

Stretch marks are permanent in nature, and although Bio-Oil is specifically formulated to help improve their appearance, it will never remove them entirely.

Preventing pregnancy stretch marks
An estimated 75-90% or women are prone to stretch marks during pregnancy, particularly in the second and third trimesters. The likelihood of developing them varies according to skin type, race, age, diet and hydration of the skin.
 
Application
 
Bio-Oil should be applied to the abdomen, breasts, hips, buttocks and thighs twice daily from the first trimester, to help prevent the appearance of pregnancy stretch marks by moisturizing and maintaining the elasticity of the skin.

Bio-Oil should be applied to dry skin directly after bathing or showering, and allowed to fully absorb before getting dressed.
