Promaxyl Stretch Marks Cream is an anti-ageing and anti-stretch marks cream marketed by Skin Research Laboratories. Promaxyl was designed to battle against nearly all the signs of skin ageing, including stretch marks. Stretch marks are by no means limited to pregnant women; men and women who are entering their fifties and especially their sixties often suffer needlessly from stretch marks.

The discolorations or streaks of red, purple or brown that we often see on the abdominal area are called stretch marks. Stretch marks are composed of microscopic clusters of tears in the dermis, or the second layer of the skin. While the epidermal layer is not damaged, the stretching of the skin brings about the ugly streaks.

One of the major disadvantages with using creams, ointments and other topical products is a slower absorption rate. For a skin condition that requires intense penetration in order to reach the actual area of injury, creams are not particularly effective in reaching their original destination. In the past years, manufacturers have ceased from using oil bases for their products, for the simple reason that oil bases cannot penetrate the skin well enough.

Promaxyl is not exempted from this group of topical remedies. It is possible that Promaxyl had been designed to reach deep down into the skin; but the general fact that the skin is sometimes resistant to such absorption remains a fact.

Promaxyl offers a 4-week period of skin renewal. Upon application of the Promaxyl formulation, you would immediately feel on the surface of your skin more moisture and firmer skin. Within 2 to 3 weeks of using the skin product, the deepest furrows and ridges on your skin would begin to dissipate. If you've been suffering from skin that looks taught, tired and old, Promaxyl was specifically designed to tone the skin's appearance, giving it a more relaxed appearance.

Have you ever seen a face lift? The skin looks new, because it was stretched (albeit, mechanically). Promaxyl was also designed to give your skin a natural lift through intensive nourishment. This would also take place in 2 to 3 weeks of continuous use on the affected regions of the skin.

At the end of Promaxyl's 4-week treatment of the skin, your skin would slowly show sign of returning to its former appearance. If you believe that you can end up looking years younger, this would be the time that Promaxyl would be removing the melanin concentrations on the skin. As protein fibers are repaired and the skin's color balance is regulated, your skin would slowly even out.

It's fortunate that Promaxyl can be used by both men and women. Now, single persons and spouses can enjoy clearer skin with none of the imperfections if the Promaxyl formulation works well with their skin type. While the product website does not declare to which skin type Promaxyl works best, we're sure that it works well with at least the most common skin types (oily, dry and normal).
