I need some help with my stretch marks!!?

Question

Is there any proven method for reducing them. I have a belly and am afraid to loose too much weight for fear of saggy and hanging skin? Any reccomendations?

Answer 1

Lotion, lotion, lotion, lotion! Moisturize the area morning, noon, and night.

I know there are special creams on the market for stretch marks but I don't know that those are any more effective than cocoa butter or regular lotion like Aveeno or Curel.

P.S. Everyone's got stretchies. They're a pain in the ***. I covered mine with tattoos. :)

Answer 2

Honey, your stretch marks will be with you forever! I don't care how much stuff you buy or how much you apply, they are scars, they get smaller, lighter and tighter with time, but never, never go away.

I just had a tummy tuck and I still have stretch marks where the skin wasn't affected. They removed 26 pounds of skin/fat!! And yes, you will have hanging skin on your belly if you lose a lot of weight, like I did. But it was so worth it ! Godblessya.

Answer 3

There are specific yogasanas for making the stretch marks fade in fourt to six months. Learn them from a yoga institute or a trained yoga teacher.

Answer 4

Cocoa butter, Vitamin E cream & time

My stomach was covered (to bust line) during pregnancies. Now 9 months later they have faded to white and are much less noticable.

Answer 5

get this stuff called palmers cocoa butter and rub it on your belly. I used it when i was pregnant and i had no stretch marks. has far as your skin just do exercises and it will tighten it up

Answer 6

cocoa butter may help a little bit, but not completely. if there is a nutrition store in your area, see if they have pure vitamin e oil. it is a little pricey but it works great.

Answer 7

cocoa butter lotion. there's also lotion specifically for stretch marks.
