Emu Oil for Stretch Marks & Scars
Using Emu Oil for Stretch Marks & Scars
One of the newest uses of this remarkable oil is for stretch marks and scars. Anecdotal evidence points to emu oil possibly helping with the appearance of both of these damaged skin conditions. This natural omega rich oil is used topically for these uses since it easily penetrates through the skin layers. Whether stretch marks occur from pregnancy, weight gain or weight loss, or other causes, emu oil may be able to help. Whether scar tissue formation is from an injury or from a surgery it may be able to be helped by continued use of pure emu oil.
Read why this doctor recommends using our emu oil for episiotomy scarring.
The type of emu oil most commonly recommended for these conditions is our Clearly Emu™ Ultra Clear Emu Oil. This innovative form of AEA certified fully refined emu oil can be used anywhere on the body. It is non-toxic, hypo-allergenic, non-comedogenic, and a non-ocular irritant. It can be used on the body, the face, around the eyes, and even on sensitive body parts.
- Emu oil is a natural trans-dermal oil. It has the unique ability to penetrate deep into the skin tissue.
- It is a powerful moisturizer. Emu oil may help replenish moisture to dry, damaged skin tissue allowing the skin to be more supple and pliable.
- Emu oil is a natural source of the essential fatty acids (EFA's) Omega 3 and Omega 6. These are known to be vital to healthy skin. It is also a excellent source of Omega 9.
- It is an anti-inflammatory agent. Inflammation can cause discomfort, itching, and redness which are common complaints from those suffering from stretch marks and scars.
- Using your hand, apply a small amount of emu oil onto the desired area and gently spread it around. Keep in mind that one drop of emu oil will cover an area about the size of the back of your hand, so judge the amount accordingly.
- Apply more emu oil if needed to cover the entire area. Since emu oil penetrates the skin you do not need to rub it in all the way if you don't want to. It usually absorbs into the skin on its own within a few minutes. The skin should not feel oily when you are finished. If it does, you have probably used too much. Simply reduce the amount that you use next time.
- Repeat several times a day or as needed.
Tip: Allow the emu oil to penetrate thoroughly before covering the area with clothing. This will reduce the chance of staining or discoloring of your favorite garments.

I would also like to share with you my personal testimonial. Keep in mind that I was using emu oil for a different condition and the resulting benefits for my stretch marks and surgical scarring were a bonus side benefit which I didn't expect. I began using Pure Emu Oil on my abdomen for a condition called Spastic Colon. I found that applying emu oil topically, as an anti-inflammatory, worked wonders for the discomfort I experienced with this condition. I had been using emu oil for about a year for my spastic colon when I noticed that my old stretch marks and abdominal scars had diminished too.
I was very surprised because my stretch marks were at least 14 years old, the scar from my appendectomy was over 20 years old, and the scar from my hysterectomy was about 12 years old. I'm a small women, only 5 foot 2 inches tall and 100 pounds, so after two major abdominal surgeries and four pregnancy’s, with babies ranging from 7˝ to over 9 pounds, my stomach looked like a road map of scar tissue. I hadn't expected the emu oil would help with such old scars so I wasn't even watching for that type of result.
I still use emu oil often and I continue to see improvements for both conditions. My stretch marks and scars are never going to completely go away but I'm sure glad that emu oil has helped improve their appearance. I can once again feel comfortable in a two piece swim suit. Thank you emu oil!
I'm not alone in my experience. Others are seeing similar results. I would urge you to give emu oil a try and see for yourself how effective emu oil may be for you.
