Listen up babygirl. Don't sweat it. You're not going to have a scar free body forever. But, you can use Cocoa Butter regularly to help reduce the blemishes and stretch marks. When you get older, you'll learn that people tend to not notice all of that stuff. You got the marks either by quickly gaining some weight or losing some. My daughter is skinny (120 & 5'5" size 5). She was a 2 three mos. ago. Now she's a 5. She has some stretch marks (not very noticable). She's doing the Cocoa Butter. It works.

Palmer's Cocoa Butter formula... It's great. And don't worry. I got stretch marks after I hit puberty. Its perfectly normal. And back to the products... I don'tknow what you've tried but here are a few tips.
- If summer's around the corner [it is here in Oz] sunless tanning lotions work alright. It won't eliminate them, but it does cover them up.
- You said Stri-Vectin doesn't work. Of course not. It is a rip off. Don't use things you simply see advertised on Tv. Go see a dermatologist if you're worried.
- Here in Australia, I don't know where you live, there is a product called Ultra StretchAway and it works great. If you live outside Australia... maybe you could get your hands on it somehow?
- here's a great product found all over the world. It's called Nourish STM Scar cream. It contains emu oil, aloe vera butter, shea butter, collagen, vitamin e [all collagen builders.] It also has healing butters, copper peptides, alpha lipoic acid and DMAE that shed the scarred skin and help you grow new skin quickly to get rid of scars.
Hope this all helps sweetie. DON'T FRET! Any guy will have you as long as you're yourself. Remember that.

Believe it or not,almost all women have stretch marks to some degree.When you hit puberty,your body starts to grow very quickly in certain areas,(hips for example).That's what causes the stretch marks.Relax you will be fine,all guys love the female form.I'm sure you will grow up to be a very lovely young lady.The marks you are so paranoid about will fade w/ time.

stretch marks are from the inside layer of skin. Moisturizing can prevent but you would have to hydrate your skin three times a day all over. They are also hereditary, most women and men get them the first time at the onset of puberty when a large growth spurt stretches bones and skin. The skin is lacking enough elastin to keep the dermal layers from tearing. The only "cure" is laser surgery to mend the tears internally. And, yes, most men have them too.(inner thighs, upper arms, abdomen, hips, back)

I have the same problem, I'm 13 almost (in six days) and I have stretch marks too. They're really annoying, but just do what people have said and see if thats works, I'm gonna try it too ^_^
I'm glad someone else is in my situation, thanks for posting this question

a lot of people get stretch marks....even skinny people. it's because there's not a lot of elasticity in your skin....plus you're growing an your skin is stretching. just keep lotion on them. that will help a little.

Honestly I would not mind as long as it was not a lot and all over
But I do have more cents then that, truthfully if a guy looks at that more then you and who you are he is not worth you're time.

I think guys love curls, especially long curly hair. My husband loves it! The advantage of curly hair is that you can wear it both straight and curly. Plus there are women who pay to get their hair curled or buy products and curling irons to do it.
