Stretchmarks On Hands, Thighs. No Relief From Glycolic Acid Based Cream. Solution?
Hello Doctor...
I got some stretchmarks on both my hand and thighs, these marks are very deep and red in color, after consulting a skin specialist am using Glycolic Acid 12% base cream at night and Elovera IMF cream on day..But those stretchmarks are not reducing. can U plz help me to reduce these marks and to get a healthy skin.
Stretch marks occur in the deep dermis layer of your skin, SO no cream or cosmetic surgery will make them go away completely. Retinoids, glycolic acid, chemical peels, vitamin C, microdermabrasion, and laser are products and procedures often recommended for healing stretch marks. The idea is that with long term use, they can help stimulate collagen production in your skin, which can make stretch marks less noticeable.
Nothing will completely erase stretch marks, but a cheap and easy routine of moisturizing, exercising, and exfoliating will help stretch marks fade faster and look better.
Hope that helped.take care.
Regards, Dr neha.
