Who is Zeynep Artegin?
Hello, I’m Zeynep Artegin.
I was born in Trabzon in 1985.
I am married and a mother of two children. After primary and middle school, I chose the fine arts department as my profession. I studied and started working actively for 3 years. I have been actively involved in the beauty industry for twenty-two years.
I always acted according to my goals and invested a portion of my income in my education and personal development. Approximately three years ago, I met DS V-LINE Academy. My first training was as a DS V-LINE Collagen thread expert, and I became part of this beautiful family. In a short time, I attended trainings to improve my expertise at the DS V-LINE professional skin academy and had the opportunity to meet colleagues from many countries around the world. My successful applications were shared everywhere. I am now providing training services to many experts at the DS V-LINE Academy, having obtained the titles of expert and master. I am very proud to see my trained experts reach the Master level.
The story of the DS-STRETCH-LINE protocol began on January 17, 2022, with my unwavering belief in the power of DS V-LINE collagen serum. We started our initial work with three clients who had different stretch mark stories. We began to see transformations in the first three sessions. We achieved a success rate of 70% after 6 sessions with one client, 60% with the second client, and 90% with the third client.
During this process, after approximately 30 different studies, we completed the development of high-active ingredients and our technique. I had the opportunity to work directly with DS V-LINE CEO & Founder Dilay Şahin. The valuable information I received from her made the protocol even stronger. The fact that a company owner leads and guides so many women has become a source of inspiration for me.
I was excited to start my first clinical studies. I knew this journey would not be easy, but I took the step with great determination to overcome this difficulty. Over approximately 1.5 years, through clinical studies conducted on more than 30 subjects, we constantly improved our protocol. Every day, we pushed ourselves further and took our protocol to new horizons.
The tests we conducted on different age groups and skin types played a significant role in the development and maturation of the protocol.
Our Mission: To become the most preferred protocol worldwide with our comprehensive approach to stretch marks and thus increase your income by ensuring the continued success of our experts.
What are The Stretch Marks?
Stretch marks occur when the elastic fibers of the skin are excessively stretched. This occurs when the skin needs to expand or grow rapidly, such as during pregnancy, rapid weight gain, or growth spurts during adolescence. Hormonal changes can affect these processes and increase the risk of stretch mark formation.
Why are hormones such an important factor in stretch mark formation?
Hormones have a significant impact on skin health and elasticity and can also play a role in stretch mark formation.
The following hormones can particularly contribute to stretch mark formation:
- Glucocorticoids: These hormones produced by the body can affect the skin’s elasticity and durability. For example, an increase in cortisol levels can reduce collagen and elastin production in the skin. This can cause the skin to lose its elasticity and lead to stretch mark formation. Conditions such as chronic stress and Cushing’s syndrome are associated with high cortisol levels and can increase the risk of stretch mark formation.
- Estrogen and Progesterone: These two sex hormones also affect the thickness, moisture, and elasticity of the skin. Hormonal changes during pregnancy and adolescence can cause changes in the skin and contribute to stretch mark formation.
- Relaxin: The relaxin hormone produced during pregnancy helps with pelvic expansion but can also cause relaxation of the skin and connective tissue. This can increase the risk of stretch mark formation.
In addition to hormones, other factors such as genetic factors, skin type, nutrition, and hydration play an important role in stretch mark formation. Stretch marks can be prevented through skincare routines, moisturizers, and the use of vitamins.
Connective Tissue
Connective tissue is a type of tissue that connects and supports various parts of the body. It consists of three main components: cells, fibers, and extracellular matrix. Connective tissue can be found in many different shapes and functions in the body, such as tendons, ligaments, skin, bones, cartilage, adipose tissue, and blood connective tissue.
Skin stretch marks (or striae) occur due to the tearing of connective tissue as a result of rapid expansion or contraction of the skin. The torn connective tissue appears as red or purple lines beneath the skin.
To help maintain healthy and flexible connective tissue, it is important to have a balanced diet and regular skincare routine to increase collagen levels.
How many types of stretch marks are there?
Superficial stretch marks and deep stretch marks are different types of stretch marks that vary based on the degree of damage to the connective tissue in the skin. The differences between the two types are as follows:
- Superficial Stretch Marks:
Superficial stretch marks typically occur in the top layer of the skin called the epidermis.
They may be lighter and less noticeable.
They tend to improve over time and can diminish with the skin’s natural renewal process.
They show faster results with the DS V-LINE STRETCH LINE technique. - Deep Stretch Marks:
Deep stretch marks can extend into the deeper layers of the skin, including the dermis and even the hypodermis.
They are more pronounced, wider, and more persistent.
They can be red, purple, or white and may change color over time.
Eliminating them may take a long time, but desired results can be achieved with regular sessions and maintenance.
Why has the DS STRETCH LINE technique become so popular in a short period?
Although obtaining comprehensive results in a short time without harming the skin may not seem easy, we have achieved this process and it has been successfully applied by many experts. Our difference lies in strengthening the connective tissue of the skin to repair stretch marks and providing a comprehensive approach to the area.

Now let’s take a look at our work.
Our client, who is 29 years old, approached us due to stretch marks, discoloration, and acne scars, particularly in the hip and buttock areas. After conducting a skin analysis, we determined that the underlying cause of these issues were old stretch marks known as stria alba. These tears have caused some changes in the surrounding tissues, resulting in loss of skin elasticity, discoloration, and acne formation. To alleviate these concerns, we have applied a total of 6 sessions of the DS-V LINE STRETCH LINE protocol, and our client is currently continuing with periodic follow-up sessions.
Our client experienced skin problems during the rapid weight gain and loss process after pregnancy. Initially, she was only looking for a solution for her stretch marks, but as skin specialists, we adopted a comprehensive approach. In 5 sessions, we achieved successful results with various procedures targeting cellulite, stretch marks, and loss of elasticity in the skin. Thus, we successfully eliminated skin problems with a holistic strategy.
Our client, who is 28 years old, came with complaints about her stretch marks. The stretch mark protocol was applied for a total of 4 sessions with a 15-day interval. Homecare instructions were also provided. The comprehensive technique of the DS STRETCH LINE, along with the restoration of skin elasticity, greatly pleased the client as it also lifted and firmed her buttocks. After achieving results, appointments were scheduled for other areas with stretch marks on her body.
Our client, who is 36 years old, faced the problem of skin sagging and the formation of stretch marks due to the excess weight gained during her second pregnancy. Rapid weight loss after pregnancy led to a loss of skin elasticity and weakened connective tissue. This resulted in sagging and deformation of the skin. The stretch marks appeared approximately 4 years ago. As the color of the stretch marks faded over time, they are referred to as stria alba. When the stretch marks initially formed, there were also some changes in the surrounding tissues. A total of 6 sessions were conducted for our client.
Our client is 50 years old and her stretch marks formed during pregnancy years ago and increased due to irregular weight gain and loss. The DS STRETCH LINE protocol was applied for a total of 4 sessions with a 12-15 day interval. Daily home care was provided with SUCRA EX. The client was very satisfied with the results as she was able to get rid of the image that had bothered her for years. As a result, she recommended our services to 4 of her friends who were also very satisfied and brought in many new clients.
