Skinplexin Lotion - A Review




I mentioned about my stretch mark treatment in my previous post. I would like to add another essential factor to the improvement of my stretch marks - Skinplexin lotion. This was introduced to me by my dermatologist. On my last treatment session, I told my dermatologist that I'm planning to have that time as the last carboxytherapy session since I'm scared to have to go through the injections procedures already. So she said that since my stretch marks have significantly improved, I can apply Skinplexin lotion everyday for at least twice a day to hasten the improvement of my stretch marks. I do think that it really helped with my stretch marks.

I also recommended it to my cousin who just delivered her first baby in September last year and she said that it lessened her stretch marks. These are her stretch marks in November last year:



After 6 months of use, her tummy now looks this way:


She didn't undergo any other procedures. Thus, Skinplexin lotion works!

My verdict: Skinplexin lotion can be a good treatment option for stretch marks. Highly recommended!

Hooray for Carboxytherapy!



Like most people, I underwent several treatments for any issues with my skin. One of them was for my stretch marks. No, I didn't get it through childbirth since I don't have kids yet. ;) I got them because I was a chubby kid when I was younger. Then when I hit my teens, I got so self-conscious and did everything to lose weight. So I ended up slimmer, but got the ugly stretch marks. Eeewww!

So I went to a dermatologist who gave me creams and lotions. Tried it for months, but didn't really help. She gave me another one and promised to give positive results, but no results again. So I ended up going to several dermatologists who didn't deliver good results. Luckily, I found the best dermatologist for me. She did carboxytherapy on my stretch marks for 5 sessions. It's not a walk in the park though. I had to go to her clinic every 2 weeks for treatments.

If you're trying to find a good dermatologist who is at the same time very nice and accommodating, you can see my dermatologist, Dr. Margaret Corcoran. Her clinic is in Medical Plaza Makati (Phone: 8088140).
