Stretch marks are caused by the rapid change in skin stretch. Your skin contains a deep layer called the dermis. Contained within the dermis are elastic fibers called elastin. When your skin stretch changes during pregnancy, the elastin is unable to keep up with the changes and the skin is damaged. It then appears on the skin surface as stretch marks.

Stretch mark cream is your best bet to limit the effects of your skin stretch. Regular use of stretch mark cream can penetrate the deep layers of your skin and increase it's ability to cope with the changes in your body.
