When to remove stretch marks

1. Stretch marks on pregnant women are a natural physiological phenomenon, which are caused by cracks in the skin due to stretching. Stretch marks can be faded through some methods after they appear, and three months after delivery is the best time to eliminate and fade stretch marks.

2. If stretch marks appear during pregnancy, you should carefully choose products that can lighten or remove them to prevent adverse effects on the health of the fetus. The continued appearance of stretch marks can be alleviated through diet adjustment and skin care. Insist on using olive oil or anti-stretch mark products that are harmless to the fetus to massage the skin every day to enhance skin elasticity, which can effectively fade the stretch marks that have already formed.

3. Generally speaking, the use of stretch mark repair products to eliminate and fade stretch marks should be done after delivery, preferably after weaning. Diet therapy is the most harmless way to remove stretch marks after childbirth. It can also supplement nutrition for mothers and encourage them to consume more foods rich in vitamin C and protein. These two types of food can help the skin rebuild collagen fibers.
