    I haven't used Mederma, but one thing that has really helped with my stretch marks is is St. Ives Apricot Scrub (actually I get the generic brand). I just scrub my belly with it, and it helps smooth out the skin. And if you use it before the Mederma, it will probably help it penetrate and be absorbed better.

    How long did it take you to see results? Mederma seems to have a good success rate, but it says it may only work on new marks...which is sort of discouraging. Some of mine have been around forever. It's the 12-week cream and I'm on week 5 and haven't seen any difference...I'm stickin with it though!

    I saw some improvement in a week. My stretchmarks are nearly 3 years old from when I was pregnant, so they're not exactly fresh. I've also read that after you use the scrub you should use a vitamin E cream, but I haven't started that yet.
