The Crème B-STRIA is a firming and exfoliating cream that enhances dermal components and stimulates skin repair to fade existing white stretch marks.   The B is for blanche (white) which relates to the white color of established scar tissue stretch marks which appear red at first and fade to white over time. When dermal fibers become rigid around the lesion, the white stretch mark forms a small depression on the surface of the skin. The dermis loses 50% of its thickness, collagen bundles are atrophied and fibroblasts are no longer active. The synergistic alliance of two endogenous biomimetic peptides make it possible to reorganize the dermal fibers and in turn, the dermal thickness. At the same time, the presence of salicylic acid exfoliates and stimulates keratinocyte regeneration while  the repairing action of onopordum acanthium extract accelerates the epidermal renewal process.  This repairing and toning cream refines the skin's texture and improves its microrelief to reduce the appearance of existing white stretch marks. Recommended for skin conditions with stretch marks.  200 mL / 6.8 oz.
