The Anti-Stretch Mark Products Market To Be Fueled By Creams Segment During The Forecast Period

Surging demand for topical skin treatment products and fluctuation in weight due to increasing obesity rate are the leading factors driving the global anti-stretch mark products market during the forecasted period.

According to TechSci Research report, “Anti-Stretch Mark Products Market – Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Competition, Opportunity, and Forecast, 2018-2028F”, The growth of the market is driven by various factors such as rising demand from pregnant women, increasing obesity rate leading to fluctuation in weight, growing health concerns among consumers, and increasing demand of skincare products. Anti-stretch mark products help in reducing the appearance of stretch marks.

During pregnancy, a woman's body goes through a lot of changes aside from the developing belly. Stretch marks on the belly, thighs, hips, and other regions of the body are common among pregnant women. According to the NHS (National Health Service), around 8 out of every 10 women have stretch marks during pregnancy. Although there is no cure for avoiding or removing stretch marks, moisturizing lotions, oils, and body butter can help in reducing the appearance of stretch marks or lighten their color.

Based on product category, the anti-stretch mark products market is divided into creams, body butter, lotions, serum, and massage oil. Creams are the most popular products for stretch marks, blemishes, and spots. These creams contain powerful components such as retinol (which strengthens and resurfaces skin), hyaluronic acid (which plump lines), Centella Asiatica (which stimulates cell creation), and silicone. Creams containing compounds such as vitamin A and E (the former promotes the formation of new collagen and elastin, while the latter moisturizes and cures skin) help in hydrating the skin and thus reduces the appearance of stretch marks.

The body butter relieves itchy and dry skin. It contains Vitamin A, which helps rebuild collagen and reduce the appearance of stretch marks. The use of anti-stretch mark serums has grown in recent years. Due to increased popularity of natural skincare products, naturally occurring components such as plant extracts, jojoba oil, and avocado oil are being introduced into such serums.

Massage oils are frequently used by women all over the world and are among the most popular products offered by well-known companies such as Weleda and Bio-Oil. The most used ingredients in these products, which are known for minimizing the appearance of stretch marks, are coconut oil, almond oil, olive oil, palm oil, and tamanu oil.
