is there any creams you can use to improve the skin or stop the skin from stretching?? or can you use wrinkle cream on your breasts to improve the skin?

NO topical (on the skin surface) product exists which will reverse the damage caused by gravity, breast-feeding, and dieting, to breast skin. The appearance of stretch-marks will minimise on its own, over time, but there is NO way to remove stretch-marks, short of surgery.
All such advertising is charlatanry, and if you read the fine print, you'll see the words 'individual results will vary', which mean: 'you may have no results at all, and we are not responsible'.
Really good moisturiser, used regularly, will keep skin smoother and softer (all over your body). It is especially important to moisturise while dieting, while lactating, or when you gain a substantial amount of weight, to PREVENT as much skin-damage as possible.
If you are going through menopause, see your GP about the appropriateness of Hormone Replacement Therapy in your particular case. Bear in mind that human beings are not MEANT to have those hormones after a certain age, and they ARE KNOWN to increase the risk of breast-cancer. This may be offset by the decrease in risk of osteoporosis, changes to vocal range, growth of body and facial hair, hot-flashes, night-sweats (ugh...) and a host of psychological effects.
Vitamin E oil, vitamin C, and 'the chemical of the day' all have various merits. The truth is, smaller-breasted women, and women whose weight does not fluctuate significantly are going to have less skin damage on their breasts, over time, than those of us who have breasts like zeppelins, and who have (in my case medical) struggles with weight.
Mothers should teach their daughters to sleep while standing on their heads, to reverse gravity-damage... but somehow, I doubt that is practicable.
Remember, you are beautiful FOR YOURSELF, not for your breasts! Your whole body reflects your life-experiences (childbearing, lactating, kidney disease, anorexia, menopause, whatever...) and, if you don't make your living off your breasts, (and are not suffering ill effects from menopause), just try pampering yourself, and be satisfied with the changes which reflect the wonderful woman you are, and have been.
It's not easy, but we live in a culture which has become obsessed with 'anti-aging' products. Considering the alternative, I prefer to continue aging, thanks. My grey hairs are testament to the trials of my life.
My breasts can be hoisted up with a good quality bra, when I dress up. Sure, Lycra Spandex (TM) and make-up are our friends... but when all is said and done, being at peace with our bodies is more important than anything else.
That said, I want to win a total body make-over... ROFL!

It's called a "bra". No creams, lotions, pills, etc. exist to lift breasts.

Use the rowing machine at the gym. If you are concerned about saggy boobs, this is your answer.
