Laser surgery or micro-skin abrasion. Or just get used to them cause the options are pretty expensive.

Best thing to do is use a lotion on your stomach at least 2 times a day. I'm currently using Dove Intensive. It's working wonders by the way. Tried cocoa butter also, and didn't help me at all.
I've also started walking 3 miles a day 4 times a week and doing sit-ups as well as crunches. I can see a noticeable difference is the color and size of them already and I've only been doing this for a little over 6 months.

The only thing that works for sure is having a laser treatment done. Palmers Cocoa Butter for stretch marks only fades it a little.

It is a hereditary problem and it doesn't matter what you do. If you are genetically predisposed to have stretch marks , you will, no matter how big or small you are during pregnancy.
Short of lazer treatments they are there to stay.
You can minimize them a hair by moisturizing the areas effected.

I can't remember what it is called....maybe maderma or something close to that. Ask at Wal-Mart by the feminine products. It WORKS!!! worked for me. They aren't completely gone, but they have gone away a lot. Also.....time helps. Mine were very visible at first, but they fade.

The only thing that really works is laser surgery
