Stretch marks, for many people, are a fact of life. Developing often as boys and girls reach puberty or in women during pregnancy, stretch marks are reddish or purple-toned lines that appear along various parts of the body, and are named well - they are caused, primarily, by the rapid stretching of the skin.
For some people, stretch marks are pale lines running along various parts of their body. For others, the reddish or violet hue never entirely fades from their skin, and they seem to permanently mar their bodies.
