Dark stretch marks, often referred to as striae rubrae, are newly formed and typically appear red, purple, or brown, indicating increased blood flow and inflammation in the skin. In contrast, light stretch marks, known as striae albae, are older and have faded to a white or silvery color, resulting from the skin's natural healing process and loss of blood vessels in the area. The color difference is primarily due to the age of the stretch marks and the underlying changes in skin structure and blood supply.

Yes. Stretch marks can be found on any part of the body that has the potential to gain weight, including the face. The actual stretch mark occurs when the middle layer of skin is stretched to the point where it no longer retains any elasticity.

As the damage heals, it leaves behind the traditional raised stretch marks.
