Do stretch marks go away in the end?

When i have achieved my goal and i can laugh with glee at my slender form, will i still be burdened with these nasty lines? is there anything that can be done. Hopefully without surgery?

    Keep them moisturized and hope for the best? After having 4 kids, I've stopped caring that I have them. As long as they aren't a deep red, at least. It's easier to ignore them when they are almost flesh colored.
  • Ive seen my doctor and derm about this and unfortunately there is nothing you can do. They will lighten with time and become not as noticeable but they are scars so they are there to stay:(

    mine are the same color as my skin and you can barely see 'em. I've heard cocoa butter helps. Or that mederma cream from the store maybe? check on the company website for a coupon

    i had a baby three months ago and ive been using the palmers coco butter religously since i gave birth and they are not completly gone but they are WAYYYY less noticable! almost completly flesh colored. they wont go away completly but they WILL lighten up and you wont even know they are there.
