A Holistic Stretch Mark Solution? FACT or CAP!

[killerqueen]

Stretch marks are a type of scar and the only way to prevent and "treat" them is by applying a moisturizer with hyluronic acid and a retinol. But they never really go away, some fade a little bit with time but they're still there...

I appreciate that you fact or cap these videos because people actually believe everything on the internet is real. Thank you for sharing your videos Dr Youn 🌺🌸🌺

It’s sad how some of us are so insecure and when seeing people on social media it makes it worse.

Stretch marks are natural 😅 lol. Even my skinny friends have stretch marks on their thighs even though they have never been overweight.

Everyone's talking about how they honor their stretch marks because of some sentimental story while I got mine just because of bad genes, big boobs, and thick legs :, ) it was never a choice for me but whatever what can you do. Oh and to those in the comments I referred to im so happy for you and you deserve to feel proud!

Even with no changes in weight I can sometimes feel the layers separating when they form (at times overnight, or just a few days), palpating them you can feel the layers of separated tissue.

There's evidence behind microneedling though, I'm confused. Dermatologists also perform it. My stretch marks drastically improved with it.

I have stretch marks on my legs from when I was in middle school I gained a ton of weight, over the summer of 8th grade-9th grade I started dealing with an eating disorder, which made me lose a ton of weight, as a boy it was always difficult because no one thought anything was wrong, which is what I was going for at the time, even after when I wanted help and realized what it was it was rare anyone besides doctors gave me a second glance. I've tried everything, and they still haven't gone away. They are character, not who you are, they just represent what you have gone through AND what you have made it through. You are beautiful, you are strong, and you can do this.

Microneedling definitely helped me. It helped them get flatter for sure. I've not touched ones behind my arms and they're ridgy, the ones on my front are flat and healing nicely.

I was always so insecure about my stretch marks. I’ve had them ever since I was a teen. There’s so much stigma around them, but I think they are so beautiful & I’ve come to peace with my own. My body has grown & stretched, morphing with each new phase of my life. I am so thankful for my stretch marks 💖

I get rid of my stretch marks by periodically applying a cream specifically for it over a longer period of time but since I'm still growing it's gonna be a while

Anyway have a great day/night!

I love my stretch marks!! They remind me of what my body is capable of and how much I love each of my kids.

👎🤣 tell that dude we all know about Photoshop 🤣 nice airbrush job to filter them off tho lol

[thedevil]

Got mine when I was 9! After some years I had almost everywhere! The only thing that helped them fade a bit is aloe. It's also the only thing I tried... You have to accept it.

My stretch marks are a badge of honor. Showing I've been working hard.

Edit 1: Not if you're gaining weight. Losing weight

Edit 2: if you're gaining weight from muscle it's different.

Stretch marks go away with time(natural skin healing process), just keep moisturising the area regularly.
Apply any good regenerating/antiaging face cream(mix with moisturizer and apply). It makes the healing process quicker. I tried it twice. It works. With a simple moisturizer it would might take years. But with anti-aging/regenerating cream+moisturizer it can take months to an year depending on their intensity, area, quantity and depth. Patience and Persistence is the key.

So... what's your suggestion, Dr. Youn? Curious minds must inquire 😁

[Blue-cozr]

The only people who care if we have stretch marks are ourselves.

(and incels)

Thank you doc for taking the time to explain why this will not work instead of just making faces and giving a thumbs down

[StarryNightxx]

Bless yall who have a sentimental story behind your scars and stretch marks. Mine are just from being depressed and gaining weight, and hives.
