It's too late to be preventable. But I've got stretch marks on my hips and thighs from gaining so much so fast. Any tips to lose the stretch marks? Or am I stuck with them? Lost 20 pounds so far. I'm very excited!!!!!

    Stretch marks just fade unfortunately. I've noticed that the more weight I lose (50lbs so far) the more noticeable they are but that could just be me noticing them more. Bio oil works wonders if they are fairy new and look redish/pink. Well done on the weight loss:)

    They fade! I have them on my thighs and butt from growing really fast in middle school. It takes some time but they will fade, losing the pink or red pigment. I am now graduating and they are unnoticeable and have been for a few years. Congrats on your weight loss! Don't let stretch marks keep your from enjoying your body. Personally I had a real hard time with accepting them but now I think their really cool! I used Shea butter and that seemed to help a little bit. (:

    Palmers body oil. Rub it in really well. Great stuff!

    Microneedling, fresh made vitamin C serum and tretinoin. Your stretch marks won´t dissapear but will improve a lot if you´re patient.

    Palmers cocoa butter is good, it won't get rid of them but it can help their appearance a bit. They will fade naturally in time anyway, of course.

    I second Palmers cocoa butter. Also, exfoliate those areas a couple times a week.
