What are Stretch Marks?
Stretch marks (also called striae) are similar to scarring on the skin. They are most frequently caused by:
- Weight Gain – significant weight gain and weightlifting
- Pregnancy – hormone changes and weight gain
- Puberty – growth spurts and hormone changes
- Medication Use – Corticosteroid creams, lotions and pills
When the skin is stretched beyond its limits, it causes damage to connective tissue fiber which causes lacerations (the result of ruptured blood vessels). A stretch mark initially presents with a red, purple color then over time become a silver or white color. Although the discoloration may diminish over time, the stretch marks will remain to some extent.
