stretch marks

Options
Ok, so I know there is no permanent way to remove stretch marks unless surgery is involved. But I have some I would like to make less noticable. Does anyone have any information on what they have done to improve the appearence of them?

Thanks!

    I know as you lose weight some of them will fade. Make sure you keep well hydrated and your skin 'lotioned up' too. That will help.

    Bio-oil is the best. My Aunty use to be really over weigh, when she lost her weight she obviously had alot of visible strech marks. She used bio-oil and now it looks lyk they're completely gone. They've faded away very well.

    Give it a try, and keep us updated :-)
    Hope that helped.

    It's weird, I remember when I was a kid and got fat the stretch marks would be bright red/purple and wouldn't go for YEARS until I started to loose weight.

    When I gained again said stretch marks would appear again, and a few new ones, but disappeared/faded within days even as I gained weight. Now you can't even see (well barely see) any of the 10 - 15 marks I have at all! I wan't an explanation please.

    Also Bio Oil, used it once, it works wonders!

    I rubbed cocoa butter, a vitamin E tablet, Olive oil, and Utter Balm (weird I know). Not all at once, but I did this on a really bad scar and it also reduced the visibility.
