Does anyone know how to get rid or make stretch marks less noticeable??? I put on a little weight in the past 5 years ( 30 lbs ) and I dont even have a huge belly or anything .. BUT I have stretchmarks on my belly and sides and under my armpit. But if you were to look at me.. I dont really look like a fat guy. I look more like a beefy guy. Haha if that makes any sense haha.

Plenty of men and women have stretch marks. You can spend a lot of money, but nothing will make them go away or lessen. They will fade and become white after some times. It's part of growing.

Honestly I am proud to have them! that shows I was able to carry a full term baby! having babies is not an easy job and takes its toll on your body. one side effect of having a baby is getting stretch marks. there really isn't ANYTHING you could have done to prevent them! I tried the coco butter 2 times a day through my whole pregnancy and I have lovely stripes of honer on my belly. Not only did I get stretch marks but I gained like 60 lbs. I was so upset about both at first but my husband reassured me that he thought it was beautiful! He said the extra weight is just life support for his little girl. Please don't be embarrassed by the stretch marks, it will only make you miserable, Enjoy this time you have making this baby! You don't want to remember it as being embarrassing but an exciting count down to the ULTIMATE present! Good luck! and God Bless!

There are millions of mothers out there with stretch marks after having kids...with no way to get rid of them.
Isn't it just more than fair that some guys suffer from the same problem?

Bad news- Stretch marks are here to stay!
Good news- they can be made less noticeable.
You can use prescription creams that kinda peal the outer layer of your skin to lighten the marks. Other than that, keep your skin moisturised and try a pumice stone once a week during bath time.

there are a few ways the best way is to lose wieght, but there are now products out there to get rid of them or at least make them less noticable(such as cocoa butter). You can also go to a dermatologist, they'll give you some ways also, they are credible because of the reason that after women give birth, they tend to notice the stretch marks and freak out. So my best idea for you is try what's out on the market, if it doesn't satisfy you go to a dermatologist.

Try Microdermabrasion ! This technique employs specially formulated creams that are packed with the power of micro-crystals. These ultra-exfoliating creams are designed to take skin care to a new level, especially when combined with a re-surfacing wand. The re-surfacing wand gently buffs or massages your tissues and drives out dead skin cells, oil, and entrenched contaminants. A brand new skin surface is revealed, healthier and revitalized. The treatment is painless, and should feel like a deep tissue massage.

There is no way to get rid of stretch marks. Whether or not you get them has to do with the amount of collagen and the elasticity of your skin. They do fade from a purple/red to a faint silver usually. Try not to focus on it too much- pretty much everyone has them. My husband has some that he got when he gained weight with me during pregnancy- I think they are damn sexy!

I don't think there's anything you can do about stretch marks - all the "sure-fire remedies" that I was told when I was pregnate sure didn't work. They get somewhat lighter and fainter with time, though.

vit e oil not cream- OIL! rubbed on the area twice a day for 100 days is sposed to clear scarring
cocoa butter is another goodie
just go with anything women use on their bodies to reduce stretch mark scaring after childbirth
