Vitamin E enriched body creme will help reduce them and can also make some (or all) go away. Cabot's is good (if they still make it). I'm sure there are others.

I've used a bunch of things that are supposed to help. Vitamin E Oil, Cocoa Butter, Retinol Cream, Cosmetyn, Celtrixa. None have had the slightest positive effect. Now I'm trying Bio-Oil. If that doesn't work then I'm out of ideas. Hopefully one of them will work for you. FYI: Cosmetyn and Celtrixa offer a "risk-free trial" for a few bucks, but then after like a month (which is less time than they say results will take) they automatically charge you like $100 for another tube and it's a huge hassle to get them to stop charging you. They're ripoff scams. NOT WORTH IT!!! If you're gonna try anything, try something like Vitamin E Oil or Cocoa Butter that you can buy at Walgreens or something. Don't fall for something online that claims to have amazing effects and offers you a "free" trial.

I know exactly what you're talking about, except mine were only on my thighs, and I'm not even fat there either. They look disgusting (at least to me they did), and the thing that really helps is the Hottest Body by Victoria set...it's like a cackle cream and you just rub it on and it makes them very thin and almost translucent. I highly suggest that you go to Victoria's Secret and get it...it's about $12.50 (if it's still on sale for that much)
It could also be from you growing, depending on how old you are.
Good luck, and I hope it works out for you ^_^

Stretch marks are caused by stretching of the skin and then retracting. Even a little weight gain can cause them. There isn't really too much you can do about it. Try to keep your skin moisturized and try not to gain weight and lose it. Also....start doing some strength training to tone your body. It will keep your body nice and tight.

stretch marks bother women much more than they bother guys. it's a sign of mature womanhood, deal with it, men get hairy backs
