try applying mederma, it is working for me.
another method is give a reular massage of cocoa butter where ever you have stretch marks, and drink lots of water to keep your skin elastic
you can reduce stretch marks to an extent, but the unfortunate truth is, so far there is no complete cure for stretchmarks

I HAVE HAD THE UGLIEST DARKEST STRETCH MARKS ON MY HIPS AND BUM SINCE 13.... It sucks... Mine were very dark and prodominant too... So talking from experience and research trying to find a way to get rid of them i know:
- that stretch marks are not only caused by rapid weight gain and loss, but are also partially due to our hereditory tendency
- that there is no 'cure' as such, but moisterisation is definately the key
- that 'Bio Oil' is the most often recommended substance to help fade them with (although i didn't find much success with it)
- Palmer's Cocoa Butter is what i used after trialling a billion other things (for about a month each one) and i think it has faded my stretch marks more on its own in a month than any of the other ones did put together in the 2 years i was trying to find something
Unfortunately, you are likely to have them, like myself, for the rest of your life - but don't let them stop you from living life to the full and never be ashamed of your body... You'll find that nearly EVERY SOUL YOU KNOW HAS THEM!!! Even those evil girls who have the perfect stick-thin bodies.

the only way to permenantly get rid of them is using a laser surgery, u can protect ur skin from having more stretch marks by using cocoa butter, drinking plenty of water and working out

There's really not any way you can, once your body stretches to the point that you get them, they are always going to be there,. You can go and have cosmetic work done on them, it is sort of like a tattoo for stretch marks, they color it in your skin color., you can call any cosmetic surgery office and inquire on procedures and price., Good Luck

So if you don't want to do cosmetic surgery , try 100% UNREFINED SHEA BUTTER -'It has an anti-elastase characteristic which makes it a good active ingredient against stretch marks.'

BUT YOU CAN NEVER GET RID OF THEM without surgery

Well people have different methone to deal with stretch marks,first by exercise,firming the skin help make them less visible,then there is all kind of creams you can try,depending on your skin type.i've even heard olive oil helps.
so try a combination of both if you ask me.
good luck

applying mosituriser wont make it disapper but it will make your stretch marks look less aggressive also i use johnstons moistursier with a bit of tan so your moistursing and also the tan will hide it slighty as well. it works wonders

you can buy a cream so they dont show up as much and they do fade natuarally but other than that you can't do anything!
