Mederma. But you have to put it on like 3 or 4 times a day for several weeks before you see results. The sooner you use it after they appear the less time it should take to make them go away. Good luck!

Get rid of Stretch Marks?

NOOO... Just a lot of time. You can try laser treatment (very expensive) or infrared therapy (also expensive), but even those are not guaranteed to work. Stretch marks are deep-tissue damage due to tension stress when the skin expands rapidly. No cure, no prevention, no luck... I have thousands of narrow ones in my hips, thighs and buttocks from rapid weight gain from medications, as well as from pregnancy. They get lighter over time, but they never go away. Gentle sun exposure and heavy moisturizing can help them to fade faster, but still takes months to get any result. Expensive creams are just a waste of money... To hide them better, you can try using a daily moisturizer that has sunless tanning agents in it. The lighter your skin, the more freakish they look.

Stretch marks are like getting a scar or something. They won't go away, but they do fade, and eventually you don't mind so much.

Nope, none of the creams and stuff can prevent the ill effects of genetics. Over time they do fade, and sometimes they'll even tan in the summer time so they don't always look so obvious.
Just be glad that it took getting pregnant and having a baby to GET them...some of us didn't escape puberty w/o them :| Besides, they're badges of motherhood, so wear 'em proud!

Nope, some will fade in time but nothing ever gets rid of them forever. I suggest to any women who don't want them...Don't get pregnant.
