stretch marks :/

Options
Hey guys and girls.. I have stretch marks on my sides down around my waist line (oblique area) and up around my shoulders. Im just wondering what you all do to get rid of them or lessen the appearance. I read up on some top notch creams but they are really expensive. Im going to try one that is cheaper, but I want to know if its worth while, or if I need to just go for the expensive ones. Any response is appreciated. Thanks :)

    Check out Bio Oil. It is supposed to work wonders and it doesn't cost as much as you'd think. Hope you find what you're looking for!

    How long have you had them? Sadly if you got them a long time ago the chances of them going away is slim to none. :( over time they will fade away.

    I've heard Palmers works for some people, but I am currently having a severe allergic reaction to it. So if you try it, test on your arm first.

    I have heard that creams work best for new stretch marks. But they're pretty much scars. I consider most of it "snake oil."

    Plain rose hip seed oil or vitamin e works best for me. But to be honest I think most of the benefit is intensive massaging.
