STRETCHMARKS AND CELLULITE

Unsightly stretchmarks and cellulite have presented problems for men and women for many years. Stretchmarks and cellulite are considered unsightly, disfiguring and unacceptable by many people.

While the exact cause of stretchmarks is unknown, it is thought that striae are the result of the skin’s collagen and elastin breaking down under stress. Pregnancy, body building and weight loss are the leading causes of stretch marks. It occurs most frequently in areas of mechanical stress such as the breasts, abdomen, thighs, groin and buttocks.

Cellulite is the dimpled appearance of skin caused by fat deposits that are just below the surface of the skin. It generally appears on skin in the abdomen, lower limbs, and pelvic region, and it usually occurs after puberty.
