What do pregnancy breast stretch marks look like?
Stretch marks are often a pinkish, purple, or red color when they first form. They typically fade to a paler or whiter color over time.
Is it normal to have stretch marks on breasts?
Stretch marks are stripes or streaks that occur when the skin is stretched. They’re a very normal occurrence. Nearly everyone has stretch marks. It’s common for stretch marks to occur on the breasts as well as other areas of the body. Hormonal changes that occur during puberty can trigger a rapid growth of breast tissue.
As the breast tissue increases, the skin stretches. The thinning of the skin can lead to stretch marks on the breasts. Stretch marks are a normal part of puberty for many girls. Some may also notice stretch marks on their thighs, hips, and butt. Women who gain weight will often notice that the fat tissue in their breasts also increases. As their breast size increases, stretch marks can occur. Though fat tissue decreases if you experience weight loss, stretch marks on the breasts can still occur. This is caused by a loss of collagen that can happen during weight loss, resulting in the loss of skin elasticity.
What week of pregnancy do breast stretch marks appear?
About six weeks into pregnancy, the breasts will start to grow as increased estrogen levels trigger breast growth and the growth of milk ducts. Some may notice a breast increase of up to two cup sizes. This quick growth can result in stretch marks.
Do breast stretch marks go away after pregnancy?
Just like scars, stretch marks change in appearance the longer you have them. When they first appear, stretch marks look red to purple. They are usually very light, raised lesions. As time goes on, stretch marks start to fade to a lighter color. As stretch marks become older, they may turn whitish and become slightly depressed, smaller marks. The surface may also become more wrinkled.
How do you keep your breasts hydrated while pregnant?
Drinking plenty of water is always recommended. Additionally, massaging the skin. Massage is thought to help increase blood flow and collagen production, which may help the stretch marks fade. To do this, massage the breasts for at least 30 seconds. You can use creams that treat stretch marks during the massage for best results. Cocoa butter or shea butter is also hydrating. They’re both nourishing and contain vitamin E, which is good for skin health.
How can I reduce stretch marks on my breasts?
Exfoliation can definitely help. Using a soft-bristled brush or an exfoliating scrub can speed up the process of collagen production and improve the appearance of your skin. Only choose one exfoliating product. If you use more than one, it may irritate your skin. Start with exfoliation every other day. Stretch mark creams are also sold over the counter and contain a mix of ingredients that theoretically help fade scars and improve skin elasticity.
