Anyone successfully battled Stretch Marks in here ?

Hi MFPs, i wanted to know if anyone on here successfully battles stretch marks. I have some on my stomach not from weight loss but from twin pregnancy, could use a little help and tip in getting rid of them or even reducing their appearance a littleee..

    I would suggest you getting some raw shea butter or raw pure natural cocoa butter and faithfully sticking by it and using it every single day =)

    I have absoultely horrible stretch marks from my pregnancy. Unfortunately, if you let them heal (turn white) there's not much you can do besides laser skin therapy (currently saving up for that one). However, there is good news. I don't know about you, but because of the stretch marks, my skin dimpled and started sagging. This DOES go away with weight loss and good toning exercises. Also, the more tight your skin becomes, the less noticeable the stretch marks are.

    When I was at my highest weight I noticed stretch marks on the side of my stomach and bewbs. I bought some plain old palmers cocoa butter lotion and use it (not religiously) as I'm losing weight I'm noticing them less and less. BUT I've never been pregnant so my case might be different from yours.

    I have had 2 c-sections with minimal stretch marks. However, for the stretch marks I do have and the c-section scar, I have found that constantly applying moisturizing lotion has really helped them heal. The stretch marks are almost all gone and even the c-section scar is healing well. I applied religously at least twice a day until I was happy with their progress.
