It all depends on how bad they are and what not. Some people have stretch marks that stay forever and some people have strecth marks that go away in a matter or months! I've had mine for 2 years and they have faded a little. So there is really no telling! You could always go and get a tummy tuck...that is if you are rich! Ha!

Sorry but they never ever go away. I wish they did. If your stretch marks are red, they will fade in colour. No your stretch marks will not thin out when you thin out. I have lost a lot of weight and they are the same as when I was 90 pounds heavier. Sorry!

The only way to get rid of stretch marks in to have that portion of skin surgically removed, as it a tummy tuck. When they're really old, like mine, they're a silvery gray and do not tan so you get the appearance of tiger stripes along the hips and abdomen. Maybe someone out there thinks that it's hot.

No they don't go away-even if you lose a lot of weight. There are lotions out there and vitamin E rubbed on them reduces the viability of them. There are also laser treatments if you really want to get rid of them. Good luck!!!

nope
you get them from gaining or losing weight too quickley; it stretches or loosens the skin at a rate surpassing the elasticity of the skin.
the only thing that's helped me is Mederma.

No, they never go away, I've had them for 10 years, since I had my first baby. And if you tend to gain and loose a lot of weight, you'll only get more.

Yes,
Mine are down to little white streaks.
Also self tanner will help to hide them. You can also do crunches and sit ups. That really helps with the tummy ones.

Yes, but to help the process of making them disappear, use lotion and take vitamin E.

I got some of those. I hear that the redness will fade with time.
