Stretch Marks

What are stretch marks?

Stretch marks develop when the skin stretches beyond its ability to adapt, causing disruption of collagen and elastin fibres.

Why does it happen?

  • Pregnancy
  • Growth
  • Weight changes
  • Hormonal changes
  • Genetics

Why treating the cause matters

Stretch marks change over time.

Early stretch marks behave differently from mature scars, making assessment important before selecting treatment.

How do we assess it?

Assessment includes:

  • Medical consultation
  • Skin assessment
  • Medical photography
