Choosing Natural: An Effective Solution for Stretch Marks

Choosing Natural: An Effective Solution for Stretch Marks

Stretch marks - bodily streaks, scientifically known as striae distensae, usually develop when the skin is stretched beyond its limit causing collagen and elastic fibres in the middle layer of the skin (dermis) to break or tear.

The most common places to find stretch marks on the body include abdomen, breasts, hips and thighs, as well as the butt area and upper arms.

Natural Treatments Are the Way to Go!

Conventional treatment for stretch marks such as laser therapy, microdermabrasion, topical creams and cosmetic procedures offer some benefits in reducing the appearance of stretch marks however, they are expensive, cause negative side effects such as peeling, itching, swelling because of how invasive the procedures are and may require long term maintenance.

Natural treatments such as cold-pressed oils and raw, unrefined body butters are well tolerated by the skin, can easily be applied and they work with the skin’s natural processes to repair and reduce the visibility of stretch marks overtime.

Embrace Natural Oils

Moringa oil, although not usually spoke about, is a key ingredient in combating stretch marks. Packed with vitamins A, C, and E, antioxidants and essential fatty acids, the Nzema Appolo Cold-Pressed Moringa Oil works at nourishing and rejuvenating stretched dermis for a healthier skin.

Jojoba oil is a sure natural ingredient which helps reduce the appearance of stretch marks. Jojoba closely resembles the natural oil the body produces, it works along with the skin’s processes and hydrates the skin, improving elasticity making the dermis stronger.

Other oils which are effective for fading stretch marks include; Cold-Pressed Shea and Baobab oil -  all products are available to shop on the Nzema Appolo website.

Don’t Forget Your Butters!

Nzema Appolo unrefined, raw Shea butter has a significant level of vitamin A, E and fatty acids which is effective in healing the dermis.

Choose the Natural Side

By harnessing the power of nature’s raw ingredients, you can nourish, hydrate, and repair your skin through most skin conditions. Say goodbye to conventional, aggressive treatments for stretch marks and say hello to healthier and stronger skin with Nzema Appolo oils and butters.
