Minimising Stretch Marks 101
Stretch marks can occur at any time in a person’s life. These indented streaks of skin can appear in any part of the body, although most commonly on the belly, the breasts, the hips, and butt. Often they are a result of weight gain or certain types of physical activity that strain and stretch the skin. They do not cause any long term pain, neither are they painful when they occur. Stretch marks also do not harm the skin in any way.
