Stretch marks are usually associated with women. While some women develop stretch marks during puberty, the others get them during their first pregnancy. Stretch marks occur due to sudden obesity or during quick muscle growth.

Due to more and more people developing stretch marks, the demand of the removal techniques has also increased tremendously. One of the many schemes that work in stretch mark removal is microdermabrasion. It is a painless alternative to the expensive surgeries that require a recovery period of months. In this, the upper layer of skin called epidermis is scuffed out continuously removing the dead skin. This procedure makes the skin even and smooth. Due to the use of ultrasonic heat, the blood supply to the damaged skin increases thus increasing the rate of fat burn.

The affectivity of the skin has been proven as yet. The microdermabrasion machines have levels of the power rays to account the severity in the scars. In this process, a mixture of nutrients is first applied on the skin to enrich the blood supply to the damaged areas so that they are moisturized properly. Patients are them recommended to apply the prescribed ointments and lotions on the scrapped out areas.

Hair loss, in the present times is more commonly associated to men as it is only in them that the deficiency of hair is motre noticeable. However, it is wrong to assume that women do not suffer from hair loss. But the loss of hair in women is less evident because of its reduced severity in them.

Also the pattern of hair loss in women is different from that in men. Women lose hair in an even manner while men have hair loss in the form of spots all over their scalp. The underlying causes of hair loss in women are as follows :-

? The most common cause of balding in women is termed as ‘Female-Pattern Baldness’. It basically occurs as a result of the increased presence of the hormone Dihyrdrotestesterone similar to in men. It prevents the nutritioning of hair follicles by binding to them and preventing blood supply.

? Another important cause is associated with excess stress in women. As it is already known that women are prone to severe hormonal changes, stress induces in them an imbalance of hormones which further leads to hair thinning and eventually hair loss.

? Lastly, immune system deficiencies are also said to cause loss of hair in women. But there is not enough evidence to substantiate this theory.
