We could say the most famous cream in the world every time we talk about canned Nivea. A beauty product that conquers different generations and from what we see it has no intention of stopping. What's more, it is a cream that has once again positioned itself very highly given how difficult the market is now. beautyfull of proposals. But precisely because of this saturation of products, there are many women who prefer the simplest and most effective routines.
The traditional Nivea is a great moisturizing cream according to many experts and works very well for the driest and roughest areas. The brand itself points out that “it is ideal for daily use on any part of the body, for any age, at any time of the year,” they say.
Its formula is very simple, without preservatives and with a high capacity to maintain hydration in the skin, providing softness and flexibility. Dermocosmetics expert Carmen Martín comments on Nivea cream: “In my daily practice, it is one of those simple but highly effective products that I always recommend,” she says.
But if Martín indicates that Nivea is really useful for something, it is to treat stretch marks. “The visible lines that form on the skin when the collagen and elastin fibers, responsible for giving it firmness and elasticity, break,” explains the expert.
Stretch marks can improve
There is not only one reason why stretch marks appear since they can appear due to weight changes, during growth, hormonal changes… To avoid them, it is recommended to keep the skin well hydrated, a gesture that should be done daily. And here, in this area, Nivea cream is a product that works very well.
It is very important that the skin is as flexible as possible, so if the stretch marks want to start appearing, the skin will be prepared. For Carmen Martín, it is an essential cream in her consultation. But we are not only talking about prevention, but also about how to make the stretch marks that have already appeared improve.
But if there is something that must be taken into account for the treatment to work properly, it is the age of the stretch marks. In this way you can choose the treatment that best suits your needs.
For example, recent stretch marks are those that usually have a reddish tone and in this case treatment with IPL (pulsed light) helps reduce inflammation and redness. “I complement it with injections of collagen stimulators and radiofrequency sessions,” says Martín. But since in addition to the treatment you have to hydrate the area very well, that is when the Nivea cream comes into action, providing just what the skin needs: hydration, flexibility and repair.
On the other hand, stretch marks that are white or pearly are older, and here the treatment consists of radiofrequency and collagen biostimulation. And again Nivea becomes a basic product “because it contributes to significantly improving the quality of the skin in the area,” explains Martín.
