@misterbrainboost: When your body grows too fast, like during pregnancy or sudden weight gain, your skin struggles to keep up. Deep beneath the surface, collagen and elastin tear, forming tiny wounds. As they heal, scars appear as silvery or reddish lines we call stretch marks. These marks aren't flaws, they're proof that your body has adapted, endured, and changed. #stretchmarks #skinscience #bodychanges #collagen #elastin #skincarefacts #dermatology #selflove
