Counter intuitive question

So I gained a whole bunch of weight in the past few years and naturally got stretch marks from it. Recently I changed everything around and have lost almost 30 pounds in the past few months (not unhealthily) I have been keeping track of my measurements and they are also going down, but my stretch marks seems to be getting redder and more noticeable. Is this something that happens to other people? If so any recommendations to help deal with them? Thank you

They just happen as your body changes, sometimes when there is less flesh stretching them they get a bit more noticeable I think. Either way, they are perfectly natural and most of us have them. If you don't like them try bio oil or a nice body butter.0
