Ok so my tummy is completely covered in stretch marks from pregnancy. I am thinking of getting laser removal done. Has anyone had any experiences with it? have you had affirm laser treatment done? do you know anyone who has had it done? I have tried everything from Vitamin E to Cocoa Butter to Bio Oil and nothing works for me so this is really my last option....I just want to know if anyone has done it?

    I have no children but have been blessed with stretch marks *sigh*.

    I have a few on my hips that I really dislike, but they do keep fading/becoming less noticeable. The stomach would be hard though, so I feel your pain! I have a girlfriend who did laser removal for stretch marks she had on her breasts after having two children. I say as long as you're done having children go for it! Now that we're done having children I often think about having injections done on the few spider veins in my legs--I hate them. And maybe a little breast lift after I'm done nursing this go round! It's hard work on our bodies being a mom!!!

    i tried vitamin E and coco butter never really worked well for me.. But recently a MFP friend told me Wild Rose oil or cream works well.. she saw results in 4 weeks! So i'm gonna try it out soon, hopefully it works! :happy:

    And it's true.. being a mom does a number on the body.. when i reach my goal weight i wanna treat my self to some new boobies lol

    Mary Kay has a product that is two parts - one AM and one PM, it made an enormous difference in my stretch marks. Or my zebra stripes as my kids call them :) Just a note - I wouldn't do anything like that until you get to your goal weight, I found mine were far less noticable when I lost my weight and toned my stomach.
