I know stretch marks dont to away with any creames or anything, but what are my other possible choices, e.g. surgeries, or lotions that dimisish or make them less noticible. Also if I lose weight, will they be less noticeable? Ladies please give me ANY tips! Thanks!

Nadda sista...they are there until you have the surgically removed. They will blend in more with your skin over time but too bad there is not a way to get rid of them...

If they're still fresh (ie. pink or purple), then Vitamin E oil directly from the capsules helps a lot. Don't buy creams that say they have Vitamin E, because it breaks down so quickly with air contact that there won't be any left by the time it gets to you.
When I lost weight in my breasts, I didn't use very supportive bras, so the skin didn't shrink when my boobies did :(
Don't put off having new smaller bras that really "hold'em up there", because the stretch marks can look like grooves when the flesh underneath shrinks faster than the skin.
Laser surgery can take away any scar tissue (which is what stretch marks are) and it's a simple day-surgery procedure. I'm planning on getting it done...when I can afford it. ^.^

Palmers Cocoa Butter OIL (it works better than the lotion) Apply it to the affected area after every shower. It wont make them go away, but it does diminish them (especially if you go tanning) I promise!!

I know that is depressing, there isn't much you can really do. But I would try special ointments that will help to diminsh their appearance. Just ask your local GNC for some advice on what the best product would be.

you can go to any drug store and buy creams to lessen the appearance of scars, I'd use coco or Shea butter. loosing weight may or may not help immediately, over years it will but you should use the Shea butter as you loose the weight.

surgery is possible i think. if you lose wieght then yes they are less noticible. put lotion on them everyday and they become less noticible. also time helps.
