Many people have stretch marks, brought on by weight loss or gain, pregnancy, or growth spurts.
Bio-Oil is a popular treatment for stretch marks, as well as scars, and treating aging skin overall.
But how well does it actually work?
Is it worth spending the money?
One study, done in 2018, bears out that claim.
It concluded that users saw a 14% reduction in stretch marks and scars after regular Bio-Oil use.
Is the new Bio-Oil, labeled as naturally derived, any different?
In 2021, Bio-Oil released a “natural” version of their popular product, according toAllure.
The company believes the new product may particularly be of interest to women who are pregnant.
Even the original Bio-Oil is safe for women who are pregnant, according to the company’s website.
Bio-Oil has a hydrating effect and can also be used for the appearance of wrinkles and to treat hyperpigmentation.
Just place a small amount on your forearm and wait 30 to 60 minutes to watch for a reaction.
If there is no reaction, it is safe to use.
