Stretch marks are a common issue that can affect anyone. Without knowing the different types of stretch marks, it is impossible to know which treatments will work best for your condition. Imagine You New in Florida has the perfect solutions to help you understand and heal the various kinds of stretch marks.

There are three main types of stretch marks:

1. Striae Distensae: These are the most common type of stretch marks that appear when the skin is stretched beyond its capacity, usually due to rapid weight gain or pregnancy. They usually appear as reddish-purple lines on the surface of the skin and can be quite large.

2. Striae Atrophicans: These are the second type of stretch marks that usually appear after rapid weight loss or during puberty. They may have a different color than Striae Distensae and often have an indentation in their center.

3. Striae Gravidarum: This is the third type of stretch mark, which typically appears during pregnancy due to the rapid stretching of the skin. They appear as reddish-purple lines on the surface of the skin and can be quite large.
