The abatement or shrinking of scars, lesions, and stretch mark removal depends on a process called "skin remodeling". The skin is designed to heal wounds quickly to avoid blood loss and infection. Scars are created from a quickly formed "collagen glue" that the body deposits into a damaged patch for protection and strength. In ideal skin repair, injured skin is quickly closed, then the healed area is gradually reconstructed to eliminate the residual collagen scars and blend the skin area into surrounding skin. Scar collagen is removed and replaced with a mixture of skin cells and imperceptible collagen fibers. This remodeling may persist in the skin area for about ten years.

In children, the remodeling rate is high and scars are usually quickly removed from injured skin areas. But as we reach adulthood, this rate diminishes and small scars may prevail for years. One way to speed up remodeling is to induce a small amount of controlled skin injury with a needle, laser, acid, or by exfoliating or rubbing the skin as in a massage treatment, and then letting the body's reparation mechanisms rebuild the skin area by itself.

Another method is to help the body with the use of skin repairing activators that boost the body's innate healing mechanisms and obtain an even better final result. This is done by using creams that incorporate biologically active ingredients that speed up the process of skin remodeling. These ingredients also help activate your skin's metalloproteinases and eliminate damaged proteins such as deep scars formed by overstretching or sun-damaged collagen and elastin fibers. At the same time they help activate the mechanism that shields your body against exaggerated breakdown of protein.

Wound Healing and Elimination of Stretch Marks

Once a wound has appeared on the skin, both skin cells and connective tissue cells (fibroblasts) start multiplying to repair the damage. The fibroblasts create a matrix upon which the skin cells can migrate to and fill. It is the balance between the rate of multiplication of fibroblasts versus skin cells that is important here. If the fibroblasts grow too fast, they can create a strong network that is not as easily penetrated by the skin cells and that results in a large scar. If the skin cells keep up with the fibroblasts, then little scar tissue is formed and the skin has a more normal look after the wound has healed. Thus it is IMPERATIVE that skin healing is controlled and advances at a quick pace.

This is where natural ingredients play an important role. A facial massage method is designed to "remove" the dead skin layer by layer, at a speed your body can act upon while rebuilding itself with its own capabilities and applying the help of natural skin renewal activators found in some creams.

One of these ingredientes are the bioactive molecules discovered in the snail's mucin that boost the skin's rejuvenating mechanisms

In addition to speeding up removal of damaged protein in the skin, organic ingredients improve the skin's natural rejuvenating responses by stimulating new capillary generation and thus bringing more oxygen through the blood to zones were it has promoted an intensification of the biosynthesis of proteoglycans, elastin, collagen and the water holding glycosaminoglycans that supply your skin with improved pressure withstanding and stretching capability.

With the use of products containing natural ingredients damaged cells and toxins are dissolved, hair follicles are cleaned of debris, microbes are killed, new collagen, elasting and water holding cells are formed. The Final Result: YOUR SKIN CLEAR OF STRETCH MARKS.
