Do Stretch Marks And Hip Cellulite go Hand in Hand

Many women are sad to discover that after the joy of bringing a child into the world, they are left with stretch marks. Some women are fortunate and do not experience extensive stretch marks, while others are unlucky enough to be left with vast stretch marks across their body.

Another cause of the dreaded stretch mark is extreme weight loss in individuals who are or were formerly overweight or obese. Most women feel the same way about stretch marks as they do about cellulite - They hate it! While the issue may be naturally occurring and normal, many women still see it as unsightly or repulsive, and want to do something about it.

When it comes to extreme stretch marks and sagging skin, the only real option is surgery. If stretch marks are more minor, however, there are several non-surgical methods that will reduce, and possibly even completely eliminate minor stretch marks. Several anti-aging products that contain HGH (human growth hormone) claim to rejuvenate the skin, returning it to its youthful glory, but I don't really buy into all of that. There are several different types of tightening creams that can be applied to area's effected by stretch marks, all of which can have differing degrees of effectiveness.

My personal favorite is SkinCeption, a topical cream which contains Regestril, a patented skin tightening agent that reduces the appearance of stretch marks. Claims of completely elimination stretch marks are always dubious, but SkinCeption certainly has been proven to reduce stretch marks to a certain degree.

So are cellulite and stretch marks related?

The answer to that question is up for debate. In some cases, a woman may have cellulite and stretch marks if she is heavyset but on a weight loss diet. Her skin may remain saggy and retain the stretch mark appearance, while also having cellulite on her hips and other body parts. In her case, she should use some type of stretch mark reduction product as well as a cardio routine and a healthy eating plan to reduce her cellulite and stretch marks at the same time.
