TIME..yes TIME...it takes time for the skin cells to become less elastic, it takes time for the skin cells to shed and grow back more of a pink color..in TIME, stretch marks just fade away to smaller, thinner lines that are a light pink.
In the mena time, just use some aloe vera oil to rub the areas to smooth the skin out.

I had my first child 3 wks ago and my stretch marks are extremely bad over my stomach and i also have marks on my thighs. The whole time i was preg i used Cocoa butter and another product called "bio-oil" from preventing them from getting worse. I still use it now even though i have had bub. You should be able to find these products in local pharmacies and supermarkets. Vitamin E cream is great too.

stretch marks do not go away, you can try a creme with collegen ellastin in it. It will help the skins natural collegen come to the surface to make the surface look smooth. Other than that you can pay thousands upon thousands of dollars for laser treatment that basically just "shrink them" but they are still visable. just remember EVERYONE even skinny people have stretch marks and things like cellulite, it just happens!

You might have to pay about 20-30 bucks
But it's worth it .......and your stretch marks are gone for good.
I ordered it .......it's been about 2 weeks since I have been using it. I can see the differnce already....Good Luck.

you cant totally get rid of them, but retin-a cream will certainly help. Go to a derm and ask about this, plus be sure to ask if it is safe to take if you are going to conceive. A lot of acne drugs are big trouble if you get preg. Also, you can tan.

many will say that creams will help...but nothing really does....they start off really red and then they become a silvery colour over time....
