Zenmed Stretta Stretch Mark Remover, marketed by Raging Creations, LTD., is a stretch mark cream designed to revitalize and strengthen weakened skin. ZENMED Stretta utilizes a 3-step process to remove the stretch marks and make the skin healthier and more robust than before.
Step 1: Exfoliating the Skin
ZENMED Stretta first works by removing the dead skin cells on the topmost layer. This is done by making use of one of the most popular exfoliating agents in the world: glycolic acid. Glycolic acid is actually a natural chemical compound that can be derived from raw sources such as grapes and sugar cane.
Take note; glycolic acid can be found in unripe raw sources. Generally, glycolic acid can be used both in tanning and exfoliation. Exfoliation is carried out by ZENMED Stretta so that the fresher layer of skin beneath the older, topmost layer can begin absorbing the nutritive and therapeutic substances from the ZENMED Stretta formulation.
Step 2: Enhancing Collagen Production
After successful exfoliation of the affected regions of the skin, it’s time to renew the skin by bringing back sufficient amounts of collagen. Scientifically, collagen is a fibrous protein that’s responsible for the normal formation of hair, connective tissue and of course, skin.
The main purpose of the second step is to strengthen the flat network of collagen in ageing skin. By using centilica asiatica, a healthier collagen network is placed between the dermis and the epidermis. With a healthier collagen network in place, nutrient uptake is easier and more efficient.
Step 3: Healing the Skin from Within & Withoutv
ZENMED Stretta is only halfway done when glycolic acid and centilica asiatica do their work. The rest of the ingredients (20 other natural ingredients, in all) begin the delicate task of healing the damaged skin layers.
You see, stretch marks may be mostly painless and unobtrusive, but they’re still small tears beneath your skin. ZENMED Stretta uses only traditional yet effective natural, herbal ingredients for the third step of the stretch marks removal. Alongside ingredients like aloe vera (aloe barbadensis), the skin is subjected to a gentle cleansing and lifting with none of the side effects of chemical cleansers or creams. This is the main strength of ZENMED Stretta: it can accomplish the job easily without making use of harsh astringents and exfoliating agents.
