During pregnancy, skin care is especially important.
The main goal of care is to prevent stretch marks and maintain smooth, healthy skin.
Let's take a look at what you can and should do to maintain skin quality and beauty during this period.
Prevention of stretch marks
Stretch marks are one of the most common skin problems during pregnancy.
They usually appear on the abdomen, thighs, chest, and back due to stretching of the tissues against the background of an increase in abdominal volume.
However, prevention and proper care can help reduce the risk of stretch marks and make them less noticeable.
Moisturizing
Choose creams, balms, and body lotions with moisturizers in them, such as the 3D molecular patch PatcH2O or Galactinol.
If you use oils in your care, apply them to a slightly wet body immediately after showering to help maintain skin hydration and preserve its elasticity.
Massage
Regular body massage can improve circulation and help relax muscles.
Use massage oils that contain natural ingredients, such as ximenia oil or coconut oil.
Dry brushing is also very useful for the prevention of stretch marks.
You can do it yourself every morning. Choose a brush with natural bristles and a long handle for comfort. After dry massage, take a shower and moisturize your skin with cream or oil.
Scrubbing
To prevent stretch marks during pregnancy, it is best to choose a delicate scrub with a high content of natural oils. Pay attention to scrubs that contain soft abrasives, such as sea salt, rice powder, or delicate plant particles, which help remove dead skin cells, improve blood circulation, and help maintain skin elasticity.
Regular use of such a scrub once a week can be helpful in maintaining healthy skin and preventing stretch marks during pregnancy. In general, skin care during pregnancy requires caution and an individual approach.
Remember to consult your doctor, maintain basic care, and avoid potentially hazardous ingredients. Your safety and health, as well as that of your child, should always come first.
