The human skin is naturally very resilient, but of course it has its limitations. When limits are exceeded its elasticity breaks its elasticity. Due to this distribution of elasticity, fine lines on the skin. These fine lines are called stretch marks. Stretch marks occur in the middle layer of skin called the dermis. Dermis tissue can rupture under the skin as a result of the rapid elongation and thus stretch marks or scars.
Argan oil has gained huge fame as a preventive and curative cosmetic product against stretch marks. It is very easy permeable and absorbable oil leaves a silky feel. Rich in antioxidants, Argan oil is formulated in a natural way to work in synergy with other essential components to significantly and rapidly reduce stretch marks. It is much better to anticipate the stretch marks than to cure them.
Regular application of Argan oil during pregnancy is a complement to the skin against the potential degradation of the elasticity of the skin. It prevents the degradation of essential structural proteins such as collagen and elastin. It also helps to rejuvenate the skin itself by the natural regeneration of elastin and collagen at the cellular level.
Linoleic acid concentration in Argan oil is three times higher than in olive oil. These essential fatty acid is a very important role in the maintenance of cell integrity. The higher the cell integrity, the higher the elasticity of the skin. High content of tocopherols in Argan oil gives it the ability to guard against the reactivity of free radicals. It is highly anti-stress and thereby retain the integrity and elasticity of the skin and, of course, protects against oxidation. Solid and tight effect of the skin is dependent upon the elasticity and prevents the exterior and interior of the skin damage. Argan oil also heals the skin discoloration caused by stretch marks.
Argan oil can be used as a mixture with another oil, such as sweet almond oil and rose oil. But it can also be used in the pure raw form although it was not necessary because of the high concentrations of the essential components. This mixture of Argan oil can be applied around the stomach or other body, such as armpits where it is needed. It does not require massaging intensive because of the easily penetrable nature. Only gentle massage will do. Application of Argan oil would suffice twice a day. Twice application of Argan oil on the area where the stretch marks are will the elasticity of the skin of the affected area strongly increase.
