What are stretch marks?
Stretch marks, red or white skin, slightly sunken in relation to the surroundings, with broad lines. They most often develop on the abdomen, hips, breasts, thighs and shoulders.
The dermis, collagen and elastic fibres are damaged, causing the dermis to lose elasticity and tear. It then becomes visible and develops an initial reddish discoloration.
Stretch marks are actually caused by the fact that the connective tissue under the skin cannot grow at the same rate as the top layer of skin, so it ruptures or tears. The weakness of connective tissue can be exacerbated by a sedentary lifestyle and poor diet, but unfortunately genetic predisposition can also have a negative influence. So if you have a mother who has suffered from this phenomenon, you need to pay much more attention to prevention.
Who can develop stretch marks?
These stretch marks affect a lot of people, typically occurring after a lot of weight gain or weight loss, as a result of pregnancy, or when someone is working out too intensively. Stretch marks are common in young people who have grown suddenly.
How can we manage the area?
Fortunately, thanks to modern medical cosmetology technologies, the stria disappearance is no longer an impossible task. We can treat areas where stretch marks develop with medical tattooing.
From medical tattooing special pigments are infused into the skin using a technique developed by Melinda herself. This technique is often very different from the usual make-up tattooing methods, so it is only with reference to you should consult a qualified professional.
The picture shows the improvement after 1 treatment, but of course you need to gradually blend the colour into the skin to avoid overdoing it. Full coverage is always obtained after correction.
