Between 75 and 90% of women develop stretch marks to some degree during pregnancy. The sustained hormonal levels as a result of pregnancy usually means stretch marks may appear during the sixth or seventh month.
Many people believe that using oils or creams in high-risk areas (e.g. breasts, hips, abdomen, thighs) may help prevent stretching by giving the skin more flexibility, and over the counter moisturising products are available for this use.
While no evidence exists to support claims that generic moisturing creams can prevent stretch marks, one study has found a daily application of Trofolastin can significantly reduce the likelihood of susceptible women developing stretchmarks during pregnancy[2].Trofolastin, which is marketed in Spain by Novartis (but is unavailable in the US or Australia), contains centella asiatica extract (Gotu Kola), alpha tocopherol (vitamin E) and collagen-elastin hydrolysates.
Various treatments are available for the purpose of improving the appearance of existing stretch marks, including laser treatments, dermabrasion, and topical applications (e.g. cocoa butter),[3]. Among these products it is claimed the best results are achieved on recent stretch marks. No evidence was found to support these claims. Further, it is thought that if stretch marks do fade with the use of these products, it is likely they only fade to the degree they would fade naturally, although perhaps at a faster rate.
A certain method for removing lower abdominal stretch marks is a tummy tuck, which removes the skin under the belly button where stretch marks frequently occur.

Coco butter helped with scars I had and it may help with stretch marks since they are a type of scarring.
