There are women who radiate a blissful, flawless glow on their faces after childbirth. Their hair is lustrous; their skin is fresh. They seem to become more beautiful with the creation of a new life.

Then there are the rest 90 per cent of women…

No doubt, they are happy with the bundle of joy in their arms. Yet, when they see themselves in the mirror…all hell breaks loose. They cringe, they whine, they sob. What has happened to their beautiful body? It’s not those baby pounds; it’s those stretch marks.

It seems as if some devil has marked them as a sign that they have delivered a child!

Only a lucky few experience a blissful, beautiful pregnancy. The rest are tormented by issues like excess weight gain, varicose veins, bloating, hair loss, sagging skin, rashes, and, of course, one of the most dreaded cosmetic bummers- stretch marks.

More than 50 per cent pregnancies are characterized by the formation of stretch marks. They usually crop on the tummy in the third trimester of pregnancy or in the initial weeks after delivery. They can also appear on hips, thighs, breasts, and at other areas of high fat deposits.

Understanding stretch marks

These are medically called striae gravidarum. They form due to over stretching of skin. As your belly expands to accommodate the growing fetus, the skin must expand too. Although the skin is quite elastic in nature, this is far too much for it to endure. The stretching is too rapid and excess for the skin to adapt. As a result, it tears.

The tearing happens in the dermis, which is the middle layer of the skin. The tissue structures present in this layer come apart. This breaks down the collagen network. You see pinkish, reddish, or purple streaks on the surface as a consequence of their tearing.

These discolored streaks gradually turn into silvery white or creamish scars. They often stay on your skin for years, probably decades. They are notorious for their refusal to go away, no matter which remedy you follow.

Surgery seems to be an effective solution, but it’s not feasible for all. Even if it is, why go through all the pain and hassle? If you explore the internet, you will come across many a scientifically-advanced cream for stretch mark.

These contain a unique formula that not only helps to reduce stretch marks, but also helps to improve skin complexion. This formula is suitable for all skin types and starts showing results within just weeks of regular usage. The advancement in skin care technology has led to the development of a newfound trust in topical solutions. For years, people were in the quest for a cream that worked on marks but in vain. Advanced creams have ushered in great hope among such people.

One such topical formula is Celtrixa. It helps people to perform an intensive stretch mark treatment within the comforts of their homes. The cream helps to diminish the appearance of marks by a whopping 60 per cent. According to its reviews, the formula targets depth, width, length, and color of marks, along with helping skin restore its natural collagen levels and replenishing Hyaluronic Acid to heal dehydration. Sounds worth trying, doesn’t it?
