It takes up to a year for them to fade into silvery lines. After about two years you hardly notice them. I got stretch marks on my butt during my pregnancy. Only now, after 7 months of cocoa butter on the marks, have I noticed a difference in them.

There are very few options for the removal of stretch marks. Some over-the-counter skin treatments (oils and lotions) can help the skin to become more supple and soft but they won't remove the stretch marks. The best way is through laser surgery - unfortunately the price puts it out of reach for most people.

I used Bio Oil on mine, and they faded a few months after having my son. He's now 5 months old and most of them have faded but they are quite deep so will probably stay like that :(
Your skin is still young so hopefully they will gradually become more unnoticeable as you get older! Good luck though lol!

unfortunately stretchs marks will never disappear. The will lighten throughout the years but truly never disappears. There are procedures you can have done with laser but it cost around 300 dollars per session and it can take up to 6 session for results to kick in. The best thing is to moisturize the area daily.

Yes they will fade, just not completely. Look at it this way, either stay far away from the bikinis or wear those war wounds with pride.

I am 21 and i have found that the best thing to do is to exercise to lose the weight, and palmer's cocoa butter made especially for stretch marks works great. it will become ur best friend

Try using cocoa butter formulas. They will fade some but they may not ever go away. I know it sucks, I'm going through the same thing.

Sure they will. I've had bayonet wounds from the Vietnam war fade to practically nothing, and your scars aren't nearly as serious as mine! Give 'em time!

they do fade from red or purple to white but they never really go away.
