Stretch Marks

Stretch marks are common and are typically caused by a stretching or tearing of the surface of the skin. Typical areas for stretch marks include the upper arms, breast, stomach, buttocks, hips and thighs.

The signs of new stretch marks on the skin are marks that are red or purple in colour. Over time, the colour reduces, and they become white in appearance.

The structure of our skin

The epidermis of our skin, the visible layer is made from several layers of cells. It functions as a barrier to the underlying skin tissue. The epidermal cells are created at the bottom layer and gradually push through replacing old, dead skin cells that shed. Our epidermis contains the melanin which is the pigment that creates the colour of our skin.

Under the epidermis of our skin is the dermis. This deep layer of skin contains our nerves, blood vessels, hair follicles, sweat glands and sebaceous glands. The dermis is made up of two fibres collagen, which gives skin strength and elastin which gives skin elasticity.
