Modelling Advice

Stretch Marks.

The large majority of the women, girls and even men have stretch marks. Why? Because growing causes them. For a model this might be very common as you probably grow fast in your early teens years.

Stretch marks are, in fact, tiny scars, formed when the lower layers of skin tear because they don't stretch as fast as upper layers of skin.

In some people it can take months and years for stretch marks to fade into barely-seen thin lines. In others, stretch marks may be thick and sit like scars on top of the skin, or as grooves in the skin. Doctors say it's possible topical creams can speed the fading process but there is no guarantee the treatments will make stretch marks invisible. If you go that route, you'll get the best results if you start early, as soon as stretch marks form. Prepare to be vigilant. Most products need to be applied two or three times a day.
Cocoa butter cream, which is available from pharmacies, is often recommended to soften scars, so might be worth a try.

Preventing stretch marks
Try to avoid yo-yo dieting, as putting on weight and then loosing might make you skin stretch constantly and the stretch marks will appear.
Curing stretch marks
Stretch marks are permanent in the sense that the skin in these areas will never be completely normal. However, after a time they contract down into much less obvious, thin, whitish scars.
