For those who have been mothers, they may leave marks on their bodies after giving birth, mainly due to the appearance of stretch marks or cesarean section marks. Mothers can also eliminate these marks, and if they feel that these things affect their lives, it is actually a symbol of motherhood. Below, the editor will take you to pay attention to this issue. What should I do if there are stretch marks on my buttocks?
What to do if there are stretch marks on the buttocks
1. Supplement collagen, enhance skin elasticity, and accelerate the recovery speed of broken elastic fibers.
2. Pay attention to moisturizing and nourishing dry skin, and choose skincare products that contain collagen or have strong moisturizing functions.
3. Due to hormonal imbalances during pregnancy, the collagen fibers in the skin of pregnant women become fragile, while the baby in the belly continues to develop. The skin tissue is stretched excessively, and the elastic fibers gradually break, resulting in irregular pink or purple red longitudinal cracks on the skin of the abdomen. After childbirth, although the broken elastic fibers gradually recover, it is still difficult to restore them to their previous state, and the cracks on the skin gradually fade and eventually turn silver white, which is called stretch marks.
How to prevent stretch marks during pregnancy
1. Stretch marks are related to physical constitution, genetics, etc., but as long as you pay attention to maintenance, it can help prevent stretch marks to a certain extent. Maintenance should start from both pre pregnancy and post pregnancy aspects.
2. Balanced diet. Eat more collagen to increase skin elasticity. Reduce the intake of sugar and fat to avoid excessive fat accumulation in the body. Eat more foods rich in vitamin E, vitamin A, and vitamin B2 to make the skin smooth and tender. Drink one to two glasses of skim milk and fiber rich foods every day. Drink plenty of water to help promote skin metabolism.
3. Control weight gain. Weight gain during pregnancy is normal, but it should be maintained within 2 kilograms per month, and the weight throughout pregnancy should be maintained at 11-14 kilograms.
4. Use abdominal support straps. Abdominal support straps can effectively help reduce pressure on the abdomen and provide cushioning for the stretching of the abdominal skin.
5. Pregnancy wrinkle cream. Choose the appropriate stretch mark cream, apply it consistently and massage it to maintain the skin. But be careful not to use stretch mark cream and massage during the first three months of pregnancy to prevent any impact on the fetus.
The above is the information compiled by the editor on how to deal with stretch marks on the buttocks. I believe it will be helpful to everyone. After giving birth, stretch marks can be removed, but if you don't want to remove them later, you can prevent these problems from occurring during pregnancy, which can reduce the cost of removing stretch marks after pregnancy without having to go to the hospital for another removal surgery.
