BEFORE I GOT PREGNANT I WAS BARELY 100LBS. MY DOCTOR SAID THAT DUE TO MY SIZE STRTCH MARKS WOULD SHOW QUICKLY BUT SUGGESTED FOR ME TO USE PALMER'S COCOA BUTTER FORMULA MASSAGE CREAM FOR STRETCH MARKS. AND THERES ALSO PALMER'S COCOA BUTTER FORMULA SOOTHING OIL FOR LATER IN YOUR PREGNANCY FOR ITCHY SKIN -WHICH SCRATCHING CAN CAUSE STRETCH MARKS. I HAVE YET TO SEE A SINGLE STRETCH MARK. I KNOW ALOT OF WOMEN THAT HAVE USED THIS AND HAVE HAD SATISFIED RESULTS. GIVE THOSE A TRY.

Im not sure. I currently use Palmer's Cocoa Butter stretch mark lotion in the mornings and Palmer's Cocoa Butter Tummy Butter at night. It says it helps reduce stretch marks before and after pregnancy. You might want to try it out, to see if it works. I really enjoy them. Dr's recomend it, and a lot of woman use it. Hope it helps out.

Well, what Stacy H said, Cocoa Butter works.
If they are there because you're fat (no offense) then lose weight.
But if you already have lost the weight and the marks are there from the past, try the cream.
Hope that helped, don't take that "fat" thing personally.... I hope I didn't offend you..

Sport only, avoid two things
1- commercially promoted chemicals
2-surgery
3-keep your tummy will hidden

it often happens when u grow up rapidly (teenagers or heavy exercises) or at the time of pregnancy.u may use oils (mixed olive oil & coconut oil) to make your skin more strechable.

I know a woman that had her entire stomach amputated- they replaced it with a small section of skin from her sixth chin.
