Striae

Stretch marks (striae) are indented streaks that often appear on the abdomen, breasts, hips, buttocks and thighs. Stretch marks, the medical term for which is striae are common skin findings which typically develop in the first half of life. They are usually benign but may be a source of cosmetic concern to patients. Infrequently, striae may indicate the presence of a more concerning medical condition such as Cushing disease or overuse of systemic or topical corticosteroids.
