      I thought that giving birth to a baby would only last 280 days of gestation, and everything would return to normal after the gestation period. Unexpectedly, I experienced losing weight and fighting against Postpartum After depression and other problems, there are still permanent marks left on the body after childbirth - stretch marks. So is there any way to remove these stretch marks?

      In fact, stretch marks themselves are a normal physiological phenomenon. They are caused by the increasing number of stretch marks during pregnancy. Uterus cause skin Caused by tensile cracks. Of course, due to individual differences, the severity of stretch marks will also vary. Some have even turned into white stripes, which should be said to be difficult to eliminate. However, this does not mean that there is no chance of eliminating stretch marks, but mothers must be mentally prepared that it is unlikely to completely eliminate stretch marks.

      Three months after delivery is the best time to remove stretch marks. Therefore, it is recommended that mothers try the following small remedies to remove stretch marks.

      1. Tomatoes:

      Peel the tomatoes first, then put the tomatoes into a blender for blending and then apply its juice on the areas with stretch marks. Wash them off in about 15 minutes. If you insist on using it for a month, the stretch marks can be reduced. Because tomatoes themselves have the effect of maintaining skin, eliminating wrinkles, and reducing the formation of melanin.

      In addition, for those who have stains and chloasma on their faces after giving birth to children female You can use tomato juice as a facial mask every day, and you can also eat tomatoes regularly.

      2. Cucumber:

      Many people know that cucumber is a holy beauty product that can moisturize the skin. In fact, cucumber is also very effective in fighting stretch marks. After I gave birth to my second son, I often cut the cucumbers I bought into thin slices and stuck them on the areas with stretch marks. I waited until the water in the cucumbers had been absorbed and then washed them. After a few days, the stretch marks were significantly reduced.

      3. Wash alternately with hot and cold water:

      Daily, you can use hot and cold water to rinse abdominal stretch marks alternately when taking a bath. This can promote blood circulation and promote the decomposition of melanin. It also has the function of promoting skin regeneration and is also helpful in alleviating stretch marks.

      4. Egg white:

      Egg white can be applied to the body with stretch marks every day. This can reduce melanin on the one hand, and also cleverly reduce the occurrence of stretch marks on the other.

      5. Moderate massage:

      Three months after delivery, you can use stretch mark removal cream or olive oil essence, rose lotion, etc. to massage your abdomen. This can increase the elasticity of the skin, make the skin tighter, and naturally reduce stretch marks visually.

      6. Lose weight:

      This is purely a personal experience. If the abdomen is too enlarged after childbirth, the stretch marks will look more obvious and even a bit "disgusting". After slimming down the abdomen, the skin will return to a tight state, and the stretch marks will "disappear" visually.

      In addition, it is recommended that postpartum mothers should also pay attention to eating more foods that are relatively rich in vitamin C, because the vitamin ingredient has the effect of quickly fading stretch marks and improving beauty. Foods such as strawberries, various fresh vegetables, and kiwi fruits are relatively rich in vitamin C.

      Drink more milk and milk products. Milk is rich in B vitamins, especially vitamin B6, which can improve skin symptoms and enhance skin elasticity. It can also supplement the nutrients needed by the body.

      Finally, I would like to remind all mothers that although there is no completely effective way to remove stretch marks so far, we still have to believe that we are the most beautiful mothers.(99healthy Special article on the website (www.99.com.cn).
