Probably the most unpleasant, with which you have to fight on the eve of the beach season - stretch marks. Fully get rid of the problem will not work, but it is quite realistic to make scars less noticeable. We decided to figure it out, because of what stretch marks appear and what means you can use right at home.
Because of what stretch marks appear
The cause of the formation of a defect becomes the lack of collagen in the lower layers of the skin, which is why when tensioning the skin appears on the skin. Initially, the scars have a bright red shade, after which they become pale, but they do not lose their unattractiveness. It is believed that the problem of STRIA is familiar with only women, it is not at all like this: men are equally subject to the formation of stretch marks on the skin.
Most often, stretch marks appear on the stomach, chest, legs, hips, and happens on back or face. The reasons, due to which the level of collagen is significantly reduced, can be a lot:
- Reception of hormonal drugs.
- Pregnancy.
- Climax.
How to make stretch marks less noticeable at home
The best helpers for preventing stretch marks are different vegetable oils. We will analyze the most effective options.
Olive oil
This type of oil can be found in any grocery store. It is more efficient to apply oil after a shower or bath when the skin will be maximized as possible. Apply a small amount of oil on a problem area and massage slightly. Leave the oil for 15 minutes, then wash with your cleansing gel.

Coconut oil
The second most popular is coconut oil. It is not too fat, but at the same time efficient and has a stunning aroma. Choose coconut oil very carefully - it is important for you to choose a quality option. Experts are confident that cold spin oil can be considered the most efficient option in the fight with stretch marks.
Castor oil
Another "fighter" dermatologists call castor oil. Just like with the other oils, we apply castor oil to a damaged area, slightly massaging and leave minutes to 10. For greater efficiency, wrap the problem area with a fabric from a natural material, such as cotton, and leave for half an hour.
And what else can help?
If there is no reason to use oils for you unacceptable, you can try no less effective tool that is easy to cook yourself - a coffee scrub.
Only natural coffee is suitable, which remains in the Turk after brewing. Mix the remnants of coffee with honey or sour cream medium fat. Heat the skin in the soul, after which we applied soft movements and massaging. By the way, the coffee scrub is beautifully fighting not only with strolies, but also with cellulite.
