Successful Prevention of Stretch Marks |
|
|
Prevention of stretch marks is important to teenagers in the
akward years of puberty, body builders who are packing on muscle
at a quick rate and women who are expecting babies. In short,
anyone who is growing quickly is apt to incur stretch marks. The
swelling of the belly during pregnancy just happens to be the
most extreme example of the adult human body growing quickly.
The use of anti stretch mark creams is the best method for the
prevention of stretch marks. Successful prevention depends on
the intensity of the cream. Mere moisturizers, like cocoa
butter, offer minimum protection against stretch marks, also
known as striae. Creams that contain trace amounts of collagen
and elastin or that are packed with them do no more than
temporarily attract moisture to the skin and can not be more
effective than cocoa butter creams in preventing striae. The
only effective creams for the prevention and repair of stretch
marks are those that contain biological substances that signal
your body to reproduce collagen and elastin at a quick pace and
to dissolve damaged skin cells.
Why are elastin and collagen creams no more effective than mere
moisturizing creams? Collagen and elastin are proteins which
occur naturally in the skin. Collagen is, in fact, |

the building
block of our skin. It gives skin the ability to bind. Elastin is
another very important protein found in our skin, which gives it
its elasticity. Both must be built from within your body, and
not merely "added" to your skin. Adding bovine collagen or
elastin levels to your body from the outside do no more than
temporarily attract moisture to your skin as any protein binds
to water in a proportion of about four times its weight. Mere
water within the skin does not equip the skin to avoid tearing
when over-stretched.
Striae are caused when the skin is pushed beyond its ability to
stretch, so that it actually tears. These tears are replaced
with rippled, discolored scar tissue, known as stretch marks. If
you can prevent the tears from happening by giving the skin a
greater ability to stretch, you won't get stretch marks. Rubbing
on a cream loaded with biological activators that signal your
body to reproduce collagen and elastin quickly is the easiest
and best way to give the skin elasticity.
Successful Prevention of Skin Damage with Biological Activators
There are three types of biological activators: (1) enzymes that
catalyze or speed up biochemical reactions within skin cells and
digest or dissolve damaged or worn out |

cells, (2) growth factor
proteins which enable cells to communicate and effectively
coordinate activities between one another for orderly cell
reproduction or division, and (3) glycosaminoglycans (GAGs),
which are complex carbohydrate chains that provide binding,
hydrating and swelling pressure to tissues enabling them to
withstand compressional forces and successfully prevent tearing
and scarring in the deep layers of the skin during pregnancy
outgrowth, growth spurts during adolescence, overstretching by
body building (in association with steroids) or over stretching
by more than average weight gain. With the use of BIO SKIN CARE™
Cream damaged cells and toxins are dissolved, hair follicles are
cleaned of debris, germs are destroyed, new collagen, elasting
and water holding cells are formed. The Final Result: YOUR SKIN
