Le smagliature della pelle (striae distensae) possono manifestarsi in qualsiasi persona, in particolare a seguito di una crescita rapida durante l’adolescenza, durante la gravidanza o in caso di un importante aumento o calo di peso.

Le smagliature compaiono solitamente in zone del corpo soggette a stress, come le spalle, le anche e la zona lombare.
