To all you women out there who have pregnancy stretch marks, help is here!
Saturday, February 27th, 2010Since the birth of my son I have been told most days how handsome he is and how much he looks like me and my husband. I love him to pieces and wouldn’t change my life for the world.
The only thing that I do miss is my beautifully toned, stretch mark scar free stomach. At only twenty four years of age I have always taken advantage of having firm skin however, since I got pregnant, I have bad pregnancy stretchmark scars all over my tummy and around my hips, I even have a couple on my breasts where they grew quickly.
I was told before the pregnancy to use a lot of coco butter but I dismissed this advice and used nothing! The stretch marks were visible while I was pregnant but after the birth, when my tummy went back to being firm (er) the pregnancy stretchmark scars became more noticable and there seemed to be quite a few more of them too.
I tried using a selection of creams and oils to eliminate them with very little change, then, when having a moan to a girly friend of mine whilst shopping a lovely women interrupted us, she’d listened to us talking and wished to advise that I buy a derma roller.
I looked up ‘derma roller’ on the internet when I got home. I found derma-rollers.com and found that the derma roller helps to reduce stretch marks by initiating the healing process, therefore increasing the levels of collagen and elastin in the skin.
I decided to buy a derma roller to treat my stretch marks I mean what did I really have to lose? The derma roller isn’t too dear and I wasn’t satisfied with the results there is a results based money back guarantee. I bought the 1mm and 1.5mm versions and recieved a free vitamin rich natural source cream!
I have now been using the derma roller to reduce my stretch marks for about 4 months now and it’s been amazing on my stomach and hips! Most of the stretch marks have completely gone and the more prominant stretch marks are now much less visible, I think using the 1.5mm has benefited these most.
I have my body back!
