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 Lotion has been specifically developed to gently protect stretching skin by providing essential ingredients to nourish, moisturise and heal.
Pregnacare Stretch Mark Lotion is recommended when the skin starts to stretch during the first trimester. This is because the sooner potential stretch marks are cared for, 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 Lotion 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 Lotion may not be used alongside medications. Pregnacare Stretch Mark Lotion is free from any drugs or hormones. For more specific advice, we recommend that you contact your doctor or pharmacist first.
Pregnacare Stretch Mark Lotion 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 Lotion can be used daily, during and after pregnancy.
Pregnacare Stretch Mark Lotion contains the following active ingredients: Theobroma cacao (cocoa) seed butter, Butyrospermum parkii (shea butter), Aloe vera leaf juice, Persea gratissima (avocado) oil, Lavandula angustifolia (lavender) oil, natural Calendula extract, natural Vitamin E, Zinc oxide, Niacinamide, Allantoin, and Pantothenic acid as D-Panthenol.
Results vary amongst individuals, but in most cases we would expect mothers-to-be to experience more supple skin after just two weeks.
Pregnacare Stretch Mark Lotion can be used in conjunction with Pregnacare tablets, Gummies or Liquid, Osteocare tablets, Osteocare chewable tablets, liquid or effervescent tablets.
Each Pregnacare Stretch Mark Lotion pack contains 30 days supply (1 month), we recommend subscribing to 1 pack every 1 month.
