Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula massage cream for stretch marks, and Mederma works great too!

A lot of people here have mentioned Palmer's Cocoa Butter, but I've found that Palmer's Cocoa Butter FIRMING BUTTER is the best for me!

I use it on everything, and my stretch marks have faded considerably, and have almost disappeared. This lotion has Shea Butter, Collagen, Elastin and Vitamin E.. All of these are important for skin elasticity.
Also, I use something from the brand "Artistry," called a Moisture Souffle. It gives the skin antioxidants, which I haven't found any other cream to do this effectively. It makes my skin glow and look radiant. You can use it all over the body, but I choose other products for facial care. You can find this at:

The only way I know of is surgery. But you can get foundation and blend it in. It isn't very hard.
Plus I have a ton a stretch marks.
I'm a little self concious but what I keep in mind that even some of the most beautiful gorls in school have them!
I hope everything works out for you!

I hate to break it to you chikita, but aside from a chemical procedure there is no miracle cream. Maybe try tanning...it doesn't remove my stretch marks but it hides them.
But, learn to embrace them..usually stretch marks are a sign of some sort of achievement..a baby, weight loss..getting taller..
To prevent them...COCO BUTTER! This ultra-rich moisturizer keep skin supple and elastisity in tact.

You can't get rid of them, just learn to live with them, no one is perfect. Almost everyone who has had a child has stretch marks, even people who have never had children have them. So believe me you are far from being alone.

its very difficult if not impossible to completely get rid of stretch marks the only really guaranteed way to see changes is to have laser surgery but you can try using cocoa butter on your stretch marks to gradually minimize the appearance of them

I have heard that Stri-Vectin works really well, however it is $153.00 for a 28 day supply. You can get it at really good dept. stores like Macy's. You can probably go on line and find it.
