Stretching Therapy
Getting Treatment for Old Stretch Marks by Cyril
Even though you may have stretch marks for years on end, there may come a time when you decide to get rid of them. For example, if you are about to undergo a complete makeover, or start on a new adventure in life, these markings may be something that you feel it is time to let go of. Under these circumstances, you may find that it is important to know how these marks change over time as well as how that will impact treatment options.
What Happens with Stretch Marks Over Time?
As you may be aware, when these marks first appear, they may be red or fairly dark in color. As the tissue begins to scar, the stretch marks will eventually get lighter than the surrounding skin. No matter whether you gained weight too fast, or were pregnant, the best time to reduce these marks is before they finish healing.
Can Older Stretch Marks be Removed?
Depending on your genetic background and the extent of each stretch mark, they may or may not be fully removable. Unfortunately, there is no real way to run a DNA test to determine if you will respond well to various types of stretch mark removal treatment. That said, even if you are predisposed to potential full removal, some therapies will still work, while others will not.
