Ever since my son was born I have been told most days how handsome he is and how much he looks like me and my husband. I love him to pieces and wouldn’t change my life for the world.
The only factor that I do miss is my beautifully toned, stretch mark scar free belly. At only twenty four years old I have always taken advantage of having firm skin but, since my pregnancy, I have quite a few pregnancy stretch marks all over my belly and around my hips, I even have some on my breasts where they grew fast.
I was informed before the pregnancy to use a lot of coco butter but I ignored this advice and didn’t use anything! My stretch marks were visible while I was pregnant but after giving birth, when my belly went back to being firm (er) the pregnancy stretchmarks became more visible and there seemed to be many more of them too.
I tried a selection of creams and oils to remove them with very little change, then, when talking to a girly friend of mine at lunch a lovely lady interrupted us, she’d heard us talking and wanted to recommend that I purchase a derma roller.
I looked up ‘derma roller’ on the internet when I got home. I found derma-rollers.com and found that the derma roller helps to minimise stretch marks by starting the healing process, therefore increasing the levels of collagen and elastin in the skin.
So I thought What do I have to lose? and bought a derma roller to treat my pregnancy strechmarks. The derma skin roller isn’t very expensive and if it didn’t work there is a results based money back guarantee. I bought the 1mm and 1.5mm versions and got a free vitamin rich natural source cream!
I have now been using the derma roller to get rid of my stretch marks for about 4 months now and ir’s been fantastic on my stomach and hips! Most of the stretch marks have completely gone and the more prominant stretch marks are now very faded, I think using the 1.5mm has benefited these most.
I have my tummy back!
