Dermaroller

Many of people all over the world suffer from stretchmarks. Both women and men alike, will find them appearing after periods of rapid growth such as puberty. Women, more often than not suffer with them after pregnancy.

They occur as our skin attempts to keep up with the rate of growth in the bones, muscles or, in the case of pregnancy, child. Invariably however, it fails to do so and tiny splits form in the middle layer of skin, known as the Dermis. These tears appear as red streaks at first and change over time to a silvery colour.

The stretch marks are actually pockets of skin with lower levels of collagen. As the dermis is ripped in two during the growth phase, it fails to restore itself so that it looks like its former state. Of course, it is only a cosmetic concern as there is little or no medical downside to having stretch marks, the cosmetic concerns, however, are great. They make you feel self concious in front of people and don’t look very nice.

To get rid of stretch marks, involves increasing the collagen levels within the Dermis layer of skin. This is best done by enhancing your own bodies natural ability to produce collagen as opposed to introducing it from external sources. The best way of doing this is micro needling, using a dermaroller, which work as a type of collagen induction therapy}.

A dermaroller is a hand held tool with many tiny needles that you roll over your skin to begin the healing process and increase collagen and elastin production to naturally heal the skin.

The other additional advantage of using a derma roller , is the way in which it boosts the effectiveness of oils and creams, such as the very popular bio oil. It gives these lotions the opportunity to penetrate the upper levels of skin to a far greater degree providing a much enhanced result.

As with anything health or medical related, it is vital to do your research and consult your doctor before beginning or using any product or treatment.
