People who are more prone to getting stretch marks than any other group of persons are pregnant women. Anti-stretch mark creams such as tretinoin or Retin A may not be safe. It is advisable for you to desist from taking any vitamin A supplements if you are making use of anti-stretch mark creams.

Pregnant women should use natural stretch mark remedies. Rose geranium oil is an alternative for taking care of stretch marks as it actually slows down aging, improves skin tone and helps to prevent and remove any type of scar from the body.

Body building exercises tend to result in stretch marks because of the strain put on the skin tissues in the course of lifting weights; weight lifters can patronize stretch mark creams to make their stretch marks appear indiscernible.

The cause of stretch marks in most teenage girls is growth spurt during puberty which places a strain on the underlying connective tissue of the skin, causing it to snap and bleed thus forming stretch marks.

Another cause of stretch mark formation is extreme loss of weight. Our skin loses elasticity and fails to return to its original shape after a person uses a fat burner like Lipofuze. Other ways of losing weight, such as spending time at the time, will increase skin suppleness and improve muscle tone rather than produce stretch marks.

Despite the various schools of views that surround laser surgery, it has been responsible for the successful fading out of stretch marks because of its efficacy in repairing ruptured blood vessels and healing the dermis (middle skin layer).

To prevent the appearance of stretch marks, you should try as much as possible to maintain a supple skin tone which has the ability to stretch without producing a tear by imbibing lots of water.

Skin Care Benefits of Using Sulfur Soap

By
A sample of sulfur (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) Despite its acrid smell, a bar of sulfur soap brings many health benefits to your skin through its antiseptic, anti-fungal and antibacterial qualities. In olden times, individuals had to take a dip in sulfur-rich hot springs located at a distance from an active volcano. Spas often appeared around these areas to provide patrons privacy and comfort while they visited the pools of heated water and sulfur. Many people frequented these places because the hot water therapy soothed their aching muscles and the sulfur healed their skin problems, such as acne vulgaris, whiteheads, blackheads, eczema, rosacea, scabies, and seborrheic dermatitis. Now, sulfur's cleansing properties are packaged neatly in soap bars. The ten percent sulfur content in the soap has enough potency to effectively produce the same effective results as dipping your whole body in a pool of sulfur-rich hot water. Like in the ancient times, use sulfur soaps to reme...

How Do You Treat Scalp Acne and Scalp Dermatitis?

By
A case of Seborrhoeic Dermatitis on the back of the head (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) If you suffer from pimples on the scalp, then it's important to find a good scalp acne treatment. They're ugly, painful, and irritating. We can't see them ourselves so we pick them often by scratching our scalp before knowing they're there. Scalp wounds tend to bleed and this can make the spots visible, especially if your hair is thinning, fine or very short. Most acne on the scalp has the same cause as acne on the face, that is, overproduction of sebum leading to blockages of hair follicles, which often become infected.

A brief vacation

By
I have just got back from UP Diliman for a week of respite. I had training for trainers at UP SoLaIR (School of Labor and Industrial Relations). It was a working vacation. At least I had time to slow down and not think of work for a few days. It was good! Really felt good to be taken cared of by the University Hotel staff.
