I'm sorry to say that stretch marks are primarily genetic. A few cremes might help them fade a bit, but nothing will make them go away.

bio oil helps, but nothing fixes them 100%

lol i was afraid of that .. well at least i will be skinny with stretch marks haha maybe i will even flaunt them poudly hahaha:bigsmile:

they do fade over time and become smaller/less noticeable. Also, using self-tanner makes them look better too...

Anti-aging facial creams that promote natural collagen production can help fill them in a little.

Cocoa butter cream.. I didn't lose any weight but have gained and I don't really have much problems with them but it does help.

The best thing I found was vitamin E and cocoa butter mixed. You can also try straight jojoba oil. These all will get rid of most of the visible signs of stretch marks, but as stated, they can be genetic. Look at them as battle scars. You earned those! Like facial wrinkles!! Hahahaha.....take care ;-)
