Understanding the Basics and Causes of Stretch Marks
Stretch marks, scientifically known as striae, are lines that appear on the skin when it stretches too quickly. This often occurs during growth spurts, weight gain, or pregnancy. The rapid stretching prevents the skin from producing enough collagen, a protein that keeps skin elastic and smooth, leading to small tears. Initially, stretch marks may appear red or purple due to visible blood vessels, but they eventually fade to silvery or white. At Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre, we help you understand and treat these marks effectively.
