Stimulate Circulation
First of all, if you want to reduce your stretch marks, you may want to consider trying to stimulate the circulation of the skin. Doing so will help the blood to get to the skin, which can help with healing the area as well as reducing the appearance of your stretch marks. Some ways to do this include using a skin brush or a loofah to brush your skin regularly.
Cocoa Butter
Another great tip to use if you want to reduce those stretch marks is to start using cocoa butter. Many people have found that using cocoa butter is a wonderful way to prevent stretch marks; however, it is also a great way to treat them as well. So, smooth on some cocoa butter each night before bed and watch as your stretch marks begin to fade.
Vitamin E Oil
Vitamin E is an essential vitamin for your skin and you can actually get Vitamin E oil to use on your skin. After you take your shower, massage the oil onto your skin each day. Many people have had excellent results with this method of stretch mark reduction.
Eat Foods High in Vitamins
Eating foods that are high in vitamins can also help you when you are trying to reduce the appearance of your stretch marks as well. Some of the most important vitamins for your skin include E, A, and C. You can try to eat foods that contain these vitamins or you may want to try taking supplements instead. However, it is important that women that are pregnant never take any more than 25,000 IU of Vitamin A.
Foods or Supplements with Zinc
Zinc is also important to your skin, so adding foods to your diet that are high in zinc or taking zinc supplements can really help. Silica can also be added and is found in brown rice, leafy green vegetables, peppers, whole grains, and soy beans. Both zinc and silica are important for collagen production with is important to skin support.

Eating foods that have essential fatty acids in them can also help you out. They help to make up the cell walls and keep the skin healthy and supple. You can find these fatty acids in a variety of different vegetables, in fish oils, as well as vegetable oils.
So, if you want to start seeing improvement in your stretch marks, make sure that you begin to use these tips. No doubt you'll start to see some changes quickly as you use them from day to day.

Great stuff online, but I really want to meet him... nobody has done more for my business and I can't imagine anyone really helping they way he does. Just straight to the point information, and none of the fluff! I think he should be a life coach! - March 17, 2012, Jacqueline was Teo's client |
