Sacramento, CA, August 15, 2006 --(PR.com)-- Skin care expert Wilma Randolph covers the subject of stretch marks in her latest article “What are Stretch Marks?” for online skin care news magazine SkinCare-News.com. Skin care nuisances, such as stretch marks, are a burden to many people. To make things worse, no matter which skin care products stretch mark sufferers’ use, the unsightly marks still remain. http://www.skincare-news.com/articles.php?ArtID=121 

In “What are Stretch Marks?” Randolph provides a detailed description of how stretch marks are created: http://www.skincarenews.com/articles.php?ArtID=121 

The process of stretch mark creation is a fairly simple one. Stretch marks are caused when your skin grows and doesnt return to its normal shape. This stretching occurs in the middle layer of the skin, called the dermis. Once this layer of skin stretches too much in one direction, a stretch mark or striae shows on your body. Stretch marks typically start out red or purple in color and then fade over time. (WebMd.com, par. 1,2) http://www.skincarenews.com/articles.php?ArtID=121 

In addition to this information, “What are Stretch Marks?” also informs readers about optional treatments that minimize or eliminate stretch marks: http://www.skincarenews.com/articles.php?ArtID=121 

First, you can opt for a medical procedure to eliminate stretch marks such as laser removal or dermabrasion. Though effective, these procedures are often expensive and not covered by insurance because they are seen as cosmetic procedures. Your next option is purchasing an over-the-counter product such as a cream or gel. This option is often very affordable and has shown success in many cases. Finally, working with your physician to stop stretch marks before they happen is often the best strategy. http://www.skincarenews.com/articles.php?ArtID=121 

“So many of our readers have stretch marks and we receive hundreds of letters on them each month so I thought something needed to be done,” states Randolph. “This article gives our readers a basic understanding of stretch marks which should aid their fight against those marks,” adds Randolph.
