Skin Scars and Stretch
Marks:
When skin is stretched
excessively it causes tiny tears in the second layer of skin, and
in many cases the top layer of skin, leaving stretchmarks. This
breakdown and/or loss of Collagen and Elastin fibers causes scars. They
can vary in color from a light pink to a dark purple. Over a very long
period of time, usually years, and can fade in color, however
the skin scars remain.
Some people are more susceptible to
stretched scars than others, however anyone can get them. They are not gender
specific, affecting both men and women. Several factors can contribute
to their formation, including:
-
Skin Type - Dryer skin has less elasticity
than oily skin
-
Rapid Weight Gain -
Stretch marks occur during pregnancy
and body building.
-
Rapid Growth in
having Children
At Last! Repair stretchmarks and prevent
their occurrence!
STM StretchMark Therapy is a highly
concentrated combination of skin rebuilding nutrients including
Collagen, Elastin, Vitamin A, Aloe Vera, and a revolutionary healing and
penetrating agent called Emu Oil. Containing high concentrations
of a near perfect balance of Oleic (Omega 3) and Linolenic (Omega 6)
Acids (unsaturated fatty acids that the skin needs but the body cannot
produce), and Palmitic Acid (regenerates new skin cell growth), Emu
Oil transports all of these building blocks through the Epidermis
directly to the Dermis where they are absorbed and consequently repair
the scar tissue where the damage actually occurred. Without a high
concentration of Emu Oil, which is also a rich source of natural
Vitamin E, these essential nutrients cannot be utilized by the Dermis.
This is why other products are not very effective.

The
ingredients
do not simply " help eliminate the appearance" of stretchmarks, but rather eliminates them by permanently repairing the damaged
skin and scar tissue. It is not only for women, but also for body
builders who have "pumped up" too quickly as well as
adolescents whose fast growth has caused stretch marks.
Applied
twice a day, most people see some results in the appearance of the skin within three to four weeks.
For more noticeable results, eight to twelve weeks is required. For
severely damaged skin or very old scars, 12 to 16 weeks or longer is necessary
for healthy looking skin.
Emu Oil
is a revolutionary healing and penetrating agent which is derived from
the Australian Emu Bird, a six to eight foot tall flightless bird. It
has been studied in the United States for the past seven years and has
been written up in The New England Journal of Medicine. Several
universities including Boston University, Texas Tech University Health
Science Center, Indiana University School of Medicine, and Auburn
University have been involved in many years of research studying the
effects of Emu oil on the skin. Through this research, Emu oil
has been shown to have 5 major beneficial properties to the skin.
It was proven and documented by Dr.
Alexander Zemstov, Assistant Professor in the Departments of Dermatology
and Biochemistry at Texas Tech, that Emu oil is penetrating,
emulsifying, non-comedogenic, non-irritating, and highly moisturizing.
Dr. Zemstov feels that the most important benefit for cosmetic creams,
treatments and
pharmaceutical companies is its penetrating qualities. He went on to say
a medicated cream will not do much good if the medicine cannot penetrate
the skin barrier.
"Oleic
acid is, and has been used to carry
bioactive compounds and treatments through the skin, and this was the highest fatty
acid that was found in Emu oil."
Dr. Margaret Craig-Schmidt,
Associate Professor of the Department of Nutrition and Food Science,
Auburn University.
"Stretchmark, such as those acquired
during pregnancy, can be prevented by application of Emu Oil.
Additionally, application of Emu Oil diminishes or completely erases
existing stretchmarks."
