Stretch marks are considered a form of a scar, since once they appear they can be pretty hard to get rid of. They can affect both men and women, and usually start to appear following puberty because of hormonal changes. Stretch marks are also very common among pregnant women, men and women who have experienced sudden weight gain or loss, or even body building men who increase their muscle size in only a short period of time. Even though stretch marks are only marks and don’t cause any medical problems, they are a problem that both men and women would like to get rid of.
Stretch marks occur because the skin was stretched too rapidly, and the skin underneath the top layer was torn from the sudden stretching. Stretch marks can vary in size and severity, ranging from small white lines all the way up to textured scars that can be inches in length and red or purple in color. Because stretch marks are really scars caused by torn layers of skin, they can be hard to get rid of and even prevent.
Trilastin is one of the very few products that actually helps to prevent and reduce the appearance of stretch marks, since it targets the actual cause of stretch marks rather than just trying to cover them up. It contains three times the concentration of ingredients than most other stretch mark products on the market, and it works to target the color, shape, and texture of stretch marks to make them disappear.

Stretch marks are a form of scarring that appears with an off color hue on the skin. Stretch marks are caused when the dermis tears, and over time they may be able to diminish but they can never completely disappear. They may come as the result of rapid stretch of the skin which is associated with rapid growth or rapid weight gain, such as resulting from growth during puberty or weight gain during pregnancy.
