During pregnancy a woman's skin stretches rapidly to accommodate her growing baby, increasing the chance of developing stretch marks, which often first appear as reddish-purple marks on areas such as the stomach, hips and breasts. Pregnacare Stretch Mark Cream has been specifically developed to gently protect stretching skin by providing essential ingredients to nourish, moisturise and heal.
Pregnacare Stretch Mark Cream is recommended when the skin starts to stretch during the first trimester. This is because the sooner potential stretch marks are cared for - when they are red or reddish purple - the more likely you are to lessen their appearance. Once they begin to smooth and fade they become less obvious and far more difficult to treat successfully.
As the skin contracts after pregnancy it can also lose its suppleness, which is why Pregnacare Stretch Mark Cream should be continued to be applied after giving birth, to help contracting skin stay supple.
As a general rule there is no reason why Pregnacare Stretch Mark Cream may be used along-side medications. Pregnacare Stretch Mark Cream is free from any drugs or hormones. For more specific advice, we recommend that you contact your doctor or pharmacist first.
Pregnacare Stretch Mark Cream should be gently massaged into the stomach, waist, thighs and breasts, avoiding the nipple area (this is also important as a means to prevent the cream coming into contact with your baby if you use the cream during breast feeding). Pregnacare Stretch Mark Cream can be used daily, during and after pregnancy.
Pregnacare Stretch Mark Cream has no known side effects when used as directed. Do not apply on broken skin or the nipple area. Store in a dry place below 25°C.
