I’m going to cover a product for stretch marks that is a bit into the high end range. When I say high end, I mean that I haven’t ever seen a product that costs more when you compare it to how much you actually get for your money. It’s called Trilastin-SR and it’s billed as a very extreme way to treat the worst of stretch marks and scars. Don’t be fooled by its fancy name – this Trilastin-SR review will go into detail about the product and break it down to its most simple elements.
The makers of Trilastin-SR are a company called EC Research Corp, which is just a way to make you think that the product they’re selling has undergone a serious amount of scientific testing, justifying its ridiculously high price tag. For those of you who don’t know, one six ounce bottle of Trilastin-SR costs you eighty five dollars. That’s quite a price to pay when the next most expensive stretch mark cream is less than half of that cost. What you have to believe to buy Trilastin-SR is that it is over twice as effective as the next most expensive cream to justify that cost. I doubt that they have some trade secret in their ingredient mixture that makes your stretch marks disappear overnight. As I’ve already covered in other articles, there is no way to completely remove stretch marks one hundred percent. It’s not possible to return your skin cells to exactly how they were before they sustained the damage of pregnancy, adolescence, or any other weight gain in your life.
I have no doubt that Trilastin-SR reduces the length, depth, texture and colorization of your stretch marks. My concern is that there are a lot of other products that can do a similar or better job for such a reduced price that there is simply no reason to ever buy Trilastin-SR.
One of the few things that I have seen in Trilastin that I haven’t seen in many other stretch mark creams is the fact that it is hypoallergenic. I’ve heard some reports of people having allergic reactions to other stretch mark creams, sometimes to the point where their skin looks much worse with the rash than it ever had with stretch marks. This is something to be careful of – if you have a history of allergies or are prone to developing rashes, you need to make sure and read the ingredients list before you apply any of these products to your skin. If you are extremely sensitive, this may be the only situation where I would recommend Trilastin over another, cheaper product. The fact that you know it is hypoallergenic lets you breathe a sigh of relief. I know that personally, I have an allergic reaction to more things than I would like to, so the fact that Trilastin is hypoallergenic is probably the only feature that would actually make me want to try it out.
