Purple or red lines across your skin, which can fade to silvery white lines over time.
Stretch marks appear when the middle layer of the skin (the dermis) tears due to rapid weight changes such as growth, pregnancy weight gain or weight loss. The lines appear red or purple initially because you can see the blood vessels beneath the dermis. They eventually fade as these vessels have contracted.
