Get a LOT of butterfly bandages. Essentially seal the skin on the 2 sides of the stretch marks. Your body will eventually cause the 2 sides to fuse together. Note that you have to do this for a long time and MUST keep the bandages in place 24/7.

Once a stretchmark is created, the damage is done, nothing short of surgery will remove it. (tho, sometimes dermabrasion can decrease the appearance) You can minimize the appearance by using a quality moisturizer, I like vitamin e oil.
The key to preventing stretchmarks is to use the vitamin E oil from the git go, for instance when you are pregnant, before you start to show, use the oil all over.
Stay out of the sun or tanning booths, as these will tan your skin but not the stretch marks, and will only make them stand out more. Stretch marks are basically scar tissues, no melanin in them and they will not tan.

From what I know the only way to remove stretch marks is by laser surgery. The best way to prevent stretch marks is to treat that area before it even stretches. Using cocoa butter on a regular basis in common areas of the skin that stretch is a great way to prevent them.

Stretch marks besides the sweetness component are completely threat loose. they do no longer decrease well-known physique applications. removal of stretch marks is the main clever while they are in basic terms formed, i.e. while they are reddish in colour. Dermatologists propose rather some treatments for the marks, yet their removal is very complicated as quickly as the marks fade. although, you could actually use Olive oils, Coconut butter or nutrition E or nutrition A for massaging over the marks. Aloe Vera Gel soothes stressful epidermis which has been presently stretched. For an clever prevention of stretch marks, workout is the terrific guess, because it keeps the muscle tissues and epidermis business enterprise. additionally ingesting meals, that are wealthy in proteins, nutrition C and E help in merchandising and preserving healthy epidermis.

No, you cannot get rid of them unless you have a plastic surgery, very expensive and you need to have that clear extra skin to be able to eliminate them, strech marks fade away with time, they don't disapear but they get lighter the redish color they have when they first appear turns into s kind of whitish color but you can use some creams to help that process of fading a bit faster, the new cocoa butter for strech marks is awesome.

Some would say that stretch marks are a fact of life... but with today's medicine they are making new products in leaps and bounds. I don't know of any particular product names but I am sure that if you visit your local pharmacy and ask your pharmacist that he/she could direct you in the right direction as to the right product for your needs. It may also depend on what they were caused by. I myself have some and they were acquired by being pregnant and I have chosen to keep mine as they are a reminder of the blessings I have received in life... my children!!! But I do understand the reasons for wanting to get them gone. ;) I hope this helps somewhat.Have a GREAT day!!!!
