The Most Recent Natural Products For Combating Stretch Marks

Body scars are a common source of unhappiness for many women. The most widely known types of body scars are stretch marks. Immune to gender, stretch marks, or striae, can be caused by several body changes such as; pregnancy, puberty, sudden weight gain, or rapid muscle gain. They form a shiny red line on the skin of the abdomen, breasts, thighs, or buttocks that is often lighter than the surrounding skin and is caused by the stretching and weakening of elastic tissues. Eighty percent of pregnant women are affected by stretch marks, making it a common issue.
There are many lotions available for combating stretch marks or preventing them before they begin. Several of them contain strong chemicals that some people, especially pregnant women, should stay away from. Being that these lotions are meant to seep deep into the skin, the best battle plans against stretch marks are those containing natural products. Here are some of the latest natural trends for stretch marks.

Natural Stretch Marks Remedies
Emu Oil:
One of the most recent trends in stretch mark treatments is Emu oil. It is made from the fat of the Emu, a bird native to Australia. It has been used for thousands of years by the Australian aborigines for the treatment of burns, wounds, bruises, and as a pain reliever for bone, muscle, and joint disorders. It is approximately 70% unsaturated fatty acids including oleic acid, an omega-9 fatty acid. It can deeply penetrate the skin, making it a great moisturizer. Because Emu oil contains high concentrations of Oleic acids, it stimulates new skin cell growth quickly and aids in the repair of scar tissue.

Cocoa Butter:
Another common natural way to fight stretch marks is organic cocoa butter. Also known as theobroma oil or theobroma cacao, cocoa butter is derived from cocoa beans or chocolate beans. The beans are ground into chocolate liquor and pressed to separate the cocoa butter from the cocoa solids. You can add milk and sugar to produce chocolate, but the fat from the beans can be used as a great moisturizer. Due to the low melting point of cocoa butter, it quickly melts at body temperature and penetrates deep into the skin, preventing stretch marks. It also contains a natural antioxidant which helps in erasing existing stretch marks. It is used in several natural skin care lotions because of its skin healing benefits.

Vitamin E:
The third natural remedy for stretch marks is Vitamin E. It is a fat-soluble vitamin with antioxidant properties. An antioxidant is a molecule capable of slowing or preventing the oxidation of body cells, which can produce detrimental free radicals and cell damage. And so, Vitamin E can prevent cell damage and help to repair scarring. The remedy is to take Vitamin E oil capsules, poke a hole in them, and rub the oil into your stretch marks after shower. Rub it in until the oil is absorbed into the skin.

The very latest trend in stretch marks treatment is snail serum. The common plant snail is a tiny creature which produces its very own moisturizer. It makes sense, since it spends most of the day exposed to the sun. Snail serum is obtained in a sterile environment where snails can freely crawl over a surgical surface, its skin serum being trapped on the specially designed surface.
