Cocoa Butter and Vitamen E are both great and inexpensive ways to reduce stretch marks (or scarring of any kind). I used Cocoa Butter lotion during and after pregnancy and can't see ANY marks anymore. Vitamen E used full strength (sqeezed from the capsules) works even better, but should be used at night because it's real oily and can ruin clothes.

Unfortunately, you can't completely get rid of stretch marks (unless you are getting something tucked, and they are cut off during the process.) Taking good care of your skin can help them heal a bit (vit E and cocoa butter as some others suggested are great, as is shea butter,) and most do fade over time. The most effective thing I have seen so far for making stretch marks less obvious is ultrasound therapy, which you can get from an Esthetician. You generally buy a series of treatments, complete a course then go back periodically. The procedure helps to tone and tighten the skin, which can make the marks less visible.

Go to a health food store and buy a bottle of Vitamin E capsules. They will have vitamin E goop inside. Break a few open before bed and cover your stretch marks with it. It will take a few months but you will see a huge improvement. The same will happen to you when you have a baby. Some people are more prone to stretch marks than other people.

Dont try to hide your strech marks ,instead try to get rid of them completely.Heres the solution. Medically known as "striae gravidarum", stretch marks are caused by excessive stretching of the skin.

Pregnancy, rapid weight gain or loss and puberty, are the usual causes of stretch marks. Almost half of all expectant women and many teenagers will acquire this condition

Depending on your skin color, the marks start out as pink, reddish brown, or dark brown streaks. The reddish-brown pigmentation in the marks gradually fades, and the stretch marks or "striae" begin to look like glistening silvery lines of scar tissue.Use this creme ,i used it personally for my strech marks and i suggest you to use the same,

Cocoa butter helps them fade as does a product calle Bio-oil. I believe you can get them at most drug stores/pharmacies. Cocoa butter is cheaper and it smells good too. Time will have them fade too but most people have stretch marks from their teen years.

Get a scar-fading product like Mederma (about $12 at a drugstore). It takes a while to see results but they eventually will fade. A prescription cream like Retin-A also works well.

okay so strivectin-SD let's just say it works MIRACLES

i've seen people with so many stretch marks on there body that it wasn't even funny and they used the product and have little or none on their bodies.

it is expensive though $135 but well worth the money

or if you dont' want fast results at a cheap price you can also try

coco butter which is found in your local grocery store

good luck :)

Plain cocoa butter works great on stretch marks. It's just a few dollars and you can get in in any grocery or drug store.

Using self tanner works to hide them. Since they are usually lighter or sometimes redder than the surrounding skin, self-tanning lotion can help to even everything out. Just don't use too much or you will turn orange!!
